Joint venture marketing can prove to be extremely beneficial for almost any business owner.  It’s a great way to join forces with other businesses and build mutually beneficial relationships both
within and outside of your industry. While there are a number of good reasons to consider joint venture marketing, there are three basic reasons that truly outline the main goals and purpose of every joint venture marketing opportunity.  They include combining resources, gaining opportunities and maximizing profit.

Combining Resources
When entering into a joint venture marketing agreement, one of the greatest benefits will be gaining access to additional resources.  By partnering with another business/business owner, you will ultimately be combining your resources to make this joint venture work.  That means the possibility of more funds, more visibility and thus, more business.  You will both especially benefit from sharing each other’s lists, allowing you to instantly double, possibly triple your potential customer base. 

As an intelligent business owner and strategic marketer, you probably already know all too well the importance of a quality list and have the experience of building your own.  A joint venture
marketing agreement is a great way for the parties involved to take some of the work out of building a list, and allowing more time to focus on building your actual business. 

Gaining Opportunities
With joint venture marketing, you will not only gain a strategic business partner, but you will also gain business opportunities that you may otherwise never have had.  For instance, combining resources may provide you with the opportunity to purchase more expensive advertisements and more expensive advertisements may lead to a larger pool of potential customers due to greater visibility and distribution.  You will also gain the opportunity to reach members of your partner’s list, a valuable tool and resource with built-in credibility.  You will have the advantage of reaching people that already know and trust your partner and/or their message.  It’s a domino effect.  Just as one investment leads to another so does opportunity.

This may also be an opportunity to build strong, professional relationships.  Building relationships within your field, with both clients and your peers, is extremely important and a key ingredient to success.  The more others trust you, the more likely they are to do business with you.  And that is an opportunity you never want to miss.

Maximizing Profit
The goal of every business is to make money so by default, when you join two businesses together, the ultimate goal is, well, to make more money!  By combining resources, you will gain the opportunity to reach a greater audience and when you reach a greater audience, you have the automatic potential to increase your customer base and maximize profit.

You see, it’s all interconnected.  You want to be successful and so does every other business owner out there.  So why not join forces to make it happen?  Joint venture marketing gives you
and your peers the opportunity to work together with a common goal in mind.  Whether you offer complimentary services or sell similar products, a joint venture marketing plan can and will
help bring you and your partner success.
