What is a Strategic Partnership?
A strategic partnership is when two companies partner to share each other’s strengths and resources to achieve a common business objective.
Unlike sales – which is a one-sided transaction where you need to convince the buyer that your product is better than the competition – a strategic partnership is a long-term mutually beneficial relationship where both companies work together to increase revenues and expand their businesses.
By utilising each other’s resources, both parties avoid the major capital investment otherwise needed to achieve such goals.
Why a Strategic Partnership is Good for You
Forging strategic partnerships with companies that compliment your business is the most cost effective way of increasing your revenue and brand exposure.
Developing a mutually beneficial partnership strategy with other companies can help your business achieve so much without the capital investment of location expansion, equipment/internal systems, new product or staff hire.
A strategic partnerships team compliments and strengthens your marketing and sales teams by implementing strategies that hit your target markets directly.
