You’ll need to differentiate yourself somehow the market is super saturated with companies like crye, mantel, 5.11, spiritus on and on. These companies have heavy networks, so you’ll need to create your own. They also have streamlined channels for selecting fabrics, manufacturing etc.

I learnt digital Marketing and started Interning at this Media House in Mumbai.
I am in the Paid Media Team. They paid 7k as stipend. Now they gave me an offer letter as Media Executive, the role of client coordination and basically a beginner account Manager.
But they've offered a monthly salary of 12k. They said the max they can do is 15k.
The problem here is, I was under the impression that Media houses generally pay higher, but 15k is too less I believe.
I want to know your real thoughts
