The business world is a very competitive environment. Managers stay focused on outperforming competitors and often completely ignore the potential benefit in cooperation with other businesses.
A variety of partnerships can be formed ranging from a simple trade of advertising space in a shop window, to the co-sponsorship of an event. A great example of partnership can be seen in the aviation/leisure industry. Many airlines partner with businesses that share the same customer base. These include airlines, car rental, hotels, etc.
With the win-win scenario that partnerships possess one cannot afford to let the opportunity slip by. Form partnerships before the competitors beat you to it. Any industry can benefit from partnerships no matter the product or service.
The benefits often include increased advertising exposure, affiliation with a powerful brand, and even can be taken as far as sharing key organisational resources including employee training programs, the list is endless.
One thing is for certain: Businesses comprise of the cooperation between individuals aspiring towards a common goal (profit). This can be extended from individuals to businesses. Why not take the power of cooperation to the next level?
