In the episode, scheduled to air March 11, GNC will assign show candidates a marketing task and judge their work. The Apprentice: Los Angeles airs at 10 p.m. ET on NBC.
To drive trial of its vitamin products, customers can log on to GNC.com during the broadcast to download a certificate for a free 28-count bottle of men’s or women’s multivitamins, redeemable in any of the company’s 4,800 stores.
