Planning Your Joint Venture Partnerships – Summary
April 5th, 2012

In addition to doing an overall evaluation it’s important to keep some notes regarding the Joint Venture, and this is where a summary is valuable. On your spreadsheet for your confirmed partners, summarize the JV, noting what worked, what didn’t work, what you would do differently. You may realize that some of the partners were not as good a fit as you thought, and as a result you may choose not to JV again. On the other hand I expect most will have been worthwhile and you now have a ready list of partners to contact for your next project.

This is one of the biggest challenges I hear about Joint Ventures – Where do I find the right partners? The key term is ‘right’, you need to be looking for the partner that works well with your audience, has a complimentary product/service to your own and that your product/service is right for their audience. Sounds daunting but a little research goes a long way.

It’s time to breathe again – you’ve successfully completed your Joint Venture. Now you review, evaluate, tweak and improve for the next time around. I suggest you do this immediately after you complete the Joint Venture process, while things are still fresh in your mind then you can step back and take a break. Pat yourself on the back you did great!
