1 Define your goals and criteria

Before you start looking for potential partners, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve and what kind of partners you are looking for. What are your marketing objectives and how can a partnership help you meet them? What are your core values and how do they align with your partner's? What are the benefits and risks of partnering with a specific brand? How will you measure the success of the partnership? Having a clear and realistic vision of your goals and criteria will help you narrow down your search and avoid wasting time and resources on incompatible or unqualified partners.

2 Research and network

Once you have defined your goals and criteria, you need to do some research and networking to find potential partners that match them. You can use online platforms and databases, social media and online communities, events and conferences, and referrals and recommendations from existing partners, customers, or industry peers to identify and reach out to potential partners. For example, AspireIQ, Upfluence, or FameBit are online platforms that connect brands and influencers. Additionally, attending events and conferences can help you meet and network with potential partners face-to-face and exchange ideas and contacts. Finally, referrals and recommendations from your existing partners, customers, or industry peers can vouch for your credibility and reputation.

3 Communicate and negotiate

Once you have a list of potential partners, you need to communicate and negotiate with them to establish a mutually beneficial and respectful relationship. Introduce yourself and your brand, explain why you are interested in partnering with them, and listen to their needs and expectations. Propose a partnership idea that aligns with your goals and criteria and theirs, and discuss the terms and conditions of the partnership. Finally, draft and sign a partnership agreement that outlines the details and expectations of the partnership and protects the rights and interests of both parties.

This is the really critical stage of partner vetting. The best partnerships should be a joy to be in, so you feel motivated to work closely with your partner. This means gelling with the stakeholders within the partner's teams, as well as respecting the brand itself. You need to make sure that what you felt were shared culture and values during your research stage are actually a reality within the partner business.

4 Collaborate and co-create

Once you have a partnership agreement, it is essential to collaborate and co-create with your partner to execute the partnership and deliver value to your audiences. This requires regular and transparent communication with your partner, respecting and trusting their expertise and creativity, involving and engaging your audiences, and providing and receiving feedback and suggestions. Doing so will help you optimize the partnership and ensure its success.

Don't rule out collaborating with "competitors!" Even people who seemingly offer the same product or service can define different niches they serve within the market. For example, one life coach may concentrate on women who are looking to make a career change, while another may help those dealing with "empty-nest" syndrome learn coping skills. One nutrition consultant may focus on helping new moms lose those pesky last ten pounds, while another helps older women deal with metabolic slowdown. By combining your skills and expertise, you can reach a broader market and can offer information that complements that of your "competitor."

5 Evaluate and celebrate

Once you have completed the partnership, it is important to evaluate and celebrate the results and the relationship. You should measure and analyze the performance and impact of the partnership using the metrics and indicators that you agreed on with your partner. It is also important to share and discuss the results and insights with your partner, and to thank and appreciate them for their contribution. Recognizing and celebrating the achievements and milestones of the partnership is also essential. Finally, you should maintain and nurture the relationship with your partner and explore the possibilities and opportunities for future collaborations and referrals.
