U.S. Tier 2/Big 4 consultants who go to business school for the express purpose of getting into MBB instead of pivoting...lol, why? Have some more imagination.

Wouldn’t pivoting qualify as having no imagination? You’re just switching jobs just like everyone else.

Going the MBA route is an experience in which you’ll learn and grow…perhaps even challenge yourself and switch your mind.

Round or exact numbers on banners/LPs? I was curious about this since in negotiations for example or pricing it's better to have the exact number. But if you have a case study, for example, is it better to say "Client X increased their revenue to 1,000,000 ARR" instead of "Client X increased their revenue to 987,500 ARR" ? Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?

I have an asset purchase of a retail store transaction. Seller is keeping the second location. Seller is licensing the name from the buyer. The licensing agreement is supposed to contain provisions so that the seller cannot offer promotions or discounts that the buyer does not also offer (i.e., seller cannot undercut buyer's pricing). I know very little about antitrust. Can anyone give me some suggestions how to enforceably draft this agreement, or is this arrangement impossible?
