I haven’t used them, but have used a similar barter agency (IPG’s Orion) to trade assets (like QSR cups with an old logo) into media buys. Basically you get a fraction of the value of the item you would otherwise throw away (too soon to recommend Qualcomm Toqs?), into a radio buy.

Yeah, it’s definitely a component of a media plan type of solution. We basically were able to use those “credits” that we got out of selling the asset against media partners we were already using (I.e. credits could be used on clear channel stations but not entercom stations; Espn digital but not fox sports digital etc.)

Hello fishes,
I am a Salesforce Developer with 2.2 YOE. I have offers from big4 (Deloitte, KPMG) and a product based company (Sparta Systems, A Honeywell Company). In Sparta Systems I will be working on Salesforce and cross technologies (Java, AWS). Sparta has offered me 16LPA and KPMG has offered 14.5 LPA fixed and other company benefits. Should I go for a brand or Sparta in terms of learning and career growth. Money is not a concern here. Thanks in advance for any valuable suggestions.

Well there’s been a lot of rejection in 2020, but I finally accepted a role at a new employer today. It may not be my “dream” but I believe my possibilities are endless and they are aware of my long-term career goals. Finally some good news after all the negatives the previous year has brought me.

Not sure what's wrong with these new age / gen kids who just finish graduation and follow it with a tier 2 mba degree and then after 1-2 years in an entry level service based role start asking for strategy consulting roles in interviews, i mean its okay to try, but one should learn the required skills and then try, not the other way round!
