From the Internet - NY Times SEVERAL years ago when the Chrysler Corporation had to put on its best financial face to obtain a $4.5 billion Federal loan, it had to grapple with the problem of a huge unmoving inventory of automobiles. It finally cleared them out by trading the autos for advertising space and time. More recently, Cunard Lines Ltd. swapped cabins and meals for advertising as well as airline seats, tableware for its dining rooms and air-conditioning units. In both cases, one of the agencies involved in the process was Reciprocal Merchandising Services of New York, a specialist advertising agency in the barter field. It is an alternative way of buying media time, sales promotions and products by exchanging what one company has for something that another company has. ''In bartering, everyone wins,'' said Perry Silver, Reciprocal's presidentThe process operates like this: In a current $100,000 radio advertising campaign that Reciprocal has for Frenchmen's Reef, the resort on St. Thomas, in the Virgin Islands, Reciprocal works with J. D. Greif, the Philadelphia ad agency and provides that amount of radio time for the resort. In exchange, Frenchmen's Reef offers $100,000 of rooms and food. Reciprocal uses the rooms and food for its clients and contacts, particularly from the radio and television field, either directly for them or for winners of contests offered by the clients.. more |
