Joint ventures have been called the most powerful marketing method ever invented. What is a joint venture? Actually, it’s quite simple. Joint ventures, also known as strategic alliances or referral relationships, occur when two or more businesses form a partnership that in some way benefits all parties. A comm
Let your friends know you are open for business. Many small businesses owners miss out on opportunities because they don’t want to “impose upon their friends” and ask them to patronize their business. While I agree that doing business with friends can sometimes be a little sensitive, you probably have a large network of friends and “friends of friends” who could potentially be using your services and telling others how great you are. Think of it this way: You are providing great value. You have put your heart and soul into your business. You are proud of what you do. Your friends deserve to benefit from all of those things. Let them know what you do and how you can help them.
Ask for referrals. People need to know how valuable referrals are to your business. My doctor, dentist, accountant and real estate agent all came to me through referrals. Let everyone know that your business grows because people endorse your services.

Give your cards to friends and acquaintance. When you do, say something like “give me a call if there is ever something I can help you with”. This makes a personal connection and people are more likely to remember you.

This will enhance your credibility and it will also reinforce your brand in the minds of potential customers.
Friendships are valuable. The people you know should be your greatest asset as you develop your business. Give them every opportunity to help you. As long as you are providing great value, don’t be afraid to leverage your social network for the benefits it can provide.
