When a big event comes to town, there’s always lots to see and do. This time around for the JUNOS, we skipped all the hoopla on Granville Street, the VIP and media lounges at GM Place, the main event and all the afterparty drunkfests. Partially by choice, but alot has to be said about the media relations people for this year’s JUNOS – totally nonexistant. So, instead, we decided that the best place to get all the action was in the gifting lounges…
… and we were bang on. Imagine a place where you go, people fawn over you, give you free swag and all you have to do is check out the products, maybe pose for a couple shots. Heck, even get some complimentary spa services – a manicure, a pedicure, some eyelash extensions, maybe a backrub.
Well, if you’re a superstar (or even a rising star) – this type of treatment is normal. Loads of brands want to see you associated with their stuff. After the jump, we’ll compare the three major players at the JUNOS. (more…)
