How well do you know me?

Have you ever offered to help someone out and then regretted it?

We’ve all been there….

The guest you offered to host who overstayed their welcome….

The friend who asked for a few minutes of your time, but ended up taking several hours…

The expert you recommended to a client, but who ended up letting them down.

Last week, I met up with a JV partner who offered to promote his friend, and then regretted it.?

He told me….

“I love what he does, I think he has integrity, so I agreed to promote his webinar, but when I actually saw the content, I wish I hadn’t”.

I’m a big fan of “givers gain”. That’s the idea that we support fellow entrepreneurs who complement what we do, and that makes them want to reciprocate and help us, too.

But there’s one important step you can’t afford to miss…

And that’s getting to know your JV partners.??

Your JV partner might tick many boxes.

• You get great vibes from them
• Their audience is aligned with yours
• Their program sounds great

But what about their content?

Have you watched their webinar?

Have you signed up for their freebies??

Have you taken a peek inside their program?

Before agreeing to promote a partner, you need to do some due diligence.?

Will their messaging resonate with your audience?

Is the advice they are giving helpful?

Does their program deliver on their promise?

Do they feel credible?

I have worked with business owners who won’t even partner with someone until they have interviewed some of their clients first.?

Now you don’t need to go as far as that.?

But you do need to pay close attention to who you are partnering with, and make sure that they can deliver on the promise they make to the people who you refer them to. After all, your reputation is at stake as well.?

This means taking a little longer to get to know each partner.

It may also mean limiting the number of partners you work with.?

But that’s a good thing.?

With most of the entrepreneurs that I support, around 6 - 8 of their partners? bring in 80% of the revenue.?

It’s why my JV program is called 6 JV Partners in 90 Days.??

Because a Joint Venture is not a numbers game?

You can collaborate with as many businesses as you want, but ultimately you want to find your big 6 who are:

• Aligned with your business & who you will be proud to support!?
• Committed to supporting your offer in return.?

Would you like to find out more about how to work with me so you can attract your Big 6 JV partners?
