What’s your new years’ resolution?

You’re probably thinking…..”But It’s not January yet”

But no, I didn’t get the subject line wrong.?

For me (and for some of you), today is the eve of the Jewish New Year.

And for those of us celebrating, It’s a time when we look back at the last 12 months, take stock of ourselves,? and consider meaningful changes we can make in our lives in the year ahead.?

In other words, we make new years resolutions.?

Many of you have recently returned from summer vacation. (And also made some new resolutions).?

When you’re away from the hustle and bustle of your daily life, sitting by the pool, it’s also an opportunity for reflection, and to consider improvements we can make in our business and in our personal lives.?

But what happens once you’ve returned, packed away your suitcases, and the suntan begins to fade?

Do you even remember the promises you’ve made?

When it comes to new resolutions, we have a tendency to overpromise and under-deliver.?

Well here’s a new idea.?

This year (or this fall), why not make fewer resolutions?

In the world of joint ventures, I am constantly meeting with coaches and consultants who have grand plans to grow their business by partnering with dozens of other business owners. The problem is, they will never be able to follow through.?

If 30 other businesses are promoting your live event, how will you ever be able to support them all in return?

It’s great to be ambitious, but if you over promise, you’re diluting your efforts. You’re trying to work with everybody, but that means you don’t have time to focus on the people that count.

But you don’t need a dozens of partners. You need a close-knot group of perfect-fit partners to support you.?

People you know, like and trust.?

People whose audiences and offers complement yours.?

People you love to work with and who you know you can rely on.

When you work more closely with those who matter, everyone wins.?

So how do you identify that small core of busines owners who matter most for the future of your business??

That’s one of the modules I teach in my “6 JV partners in 90 days” program.

You’ll learn exactly how to determine your ideal profitable partner, where to find them, how to connect with them, how to tell whether someone who seems like a good partner on the surface really is in practice…

…And then how to develop a partnership which is truly beneficial for both parties.

Would you like to find out how a Joint Venture could work more effectively for you?

Why not book a complimentary JV Partnerships Exploratory Session with me?

We’ll review the joint venture opportunities that are out there for your business, and then we’ll map out the next steps you need to take to start building those key profitable relationships.?

And whether you're celebrating Jewish New Year or transitioning from the summer vacation, remember to make no more than one or two new commitments.

You’ll get much further when you do more with less!
