Joint Ventures = a bigger list

I get this question all the time. "Derek, what is one of the fastest and most effective ways to build my list?" My reply? "joint ventures!" Joint ventures can often times be the biggest bang for your efforts to massively increase the size of your list. Have any email their list for you to introduce you and you can immediately present your content in front of the IFO or large group of potential prospects is a BIG way to build your list.

In this article reveals 7 areas to find new strategic alliances and joint venture partners who can help you quickly build your list.

Why? Well think about exposure. Joint venture partners or strategic alliances can quickly reduce the amount of time it takes to place yourself in front of perspectives by using the power of association with the people who can potentially know like and trust you For example.: it takes the same energy to create an alliance with a 40.000-member organization, as it does with a 40-member organization.

What better time to think strategically your JV partners and strategic alliances than at the beginning of a new year. Focus on long-term relationship you want to serve with them and remember-it must be a good fit! You will not be able to use the time and effort to build a strategic alliance with a potential joint venture partner if your services or message not compliment each other well. You must be familiar with the 50/50 relationship between give and receive (remember, this is not about you).

Here are 7 regions, you can focus on in order to develop your strategic alliances and joint venture partnerships:

Past and present customers

Clients is one of the best ways you can build strategic alliances. If a client has worked with them in the past, they are, of course, a great proponent of what you did for them and how to improve their business. As a result, they are very willing and inclined to share your services and content with others by those who can benefit from what you have to offer.

Network groups

I am a big fan of network groups to help you immediately connect and bond with new partners, to help you get the message in a really big way. Although it may take time to build relationship with possible joint venture partners-you can establish a high degree of credibility factor, when you spend time with someone in person and as a result, your network associates could be a great source for JV partners to help you get even more exposure and build your list.

Seminars/events

Participate in seminars and events is a great way to meet and connect with new people, especially if the event is centered around a market or niche you are involved with. as a result, of course, it will attract like-minded people in the same field and as a result, potential joint venture possibilities are endless. Now, I am not a fan of all types to go around and pass out their business cards to any random person who will take the. it is not very "authentic" in my book. But if you can do some great personal connections and friendships from these events-these people finally could prove to be some big JV partners.

Associations

Similarity to seminars and events-associations are a great way to get your message out in a potentially large group of interested prospects. Regardless of what industry you're in, there are a number of associations, where you can present yourself in front of their members. Try searching Google for your keywords to your market or niche and add "Association" to see what associations exist for your market.

Google Alerts

I love with Google Alerts to research and find out who is talking about my market or niche online. There are potential JV partners out there, completely unknown to you, but with the power of the Internet, you can do a little research and search and find some great opportunities. I love to set up Google Alerts for keywords and phrases for my market (i.e.. "authentic Internet marketing") and find out immediately when someone mentions the phrase online. I could reach out and create a connection and see how we could possibly do something together.

Social media (Facebook groups; LinkedIn)

There are plenty of groups on Facebook and LinkedIn, which relates to your market. You just have to do some search and find the right group and begin to contribute. I would start by helping with content and information you want to share can position you as an expert before you begin to submit idea of JV partnerships with people. Remember, with social media, you need to focus on relationship building aspect first.

Twitter conversations

Using search.twitter.com allows you to search immediately after conversations happening on Twitter about the market or industry. This is very powerful to place yourself immediately conversation occurs online where you can meet other and introduce yourself as a good content and information about the relevant topic. People you meet online via Twitter could be a great source of potential JV partners and strategic alliances as a result.

While you are meeting these potential partners, try to focus on the compliment, but does not compete with your message. It has resonance on both sides to form a mutual relationship, not a double-sided. Think "major" and "realistic" with multiple names, the better. It is about thinking ' outside the box ' on them, you could partner with.

Now, what do you offer after you have created the idea of a joint venture with anyone? Once you've done the introduction and formed a connection and are interested in pursuing the idea of a joint venture partnership-I would personally recommend the offer to do something in their favour first. Basically, "How can I help you." It just sets the right tone in my book and positions you as a person, who really cares and is interested in them (and you should, if you have chosen to partner with them in some way). If you ask what they can do for you, I recommend always offer your (IFO) before you try and present a paid product or program. It is easier for them to promote or email on your behalf to their email list when what you offer is something that is of high value and high-content and free!

Until next Time … Learn it, love it, live it!
