amichalek writes "Are you an idea person who could really use a partner who's great at follow-through? Do you offer a terrific service but lack access to the most lucrative markets? It may be time to think about collaborating with someone whose talents and connections complement yours. When you collaborate, you can offer more services to clients who want the convenience of "one-stop shopping." And having a partner allows each of you to focus on your own strengths, talents, and business goals.
Professional writer George Milite will draw from his experience and discuss the elements that make collaborating work. He'll also talk about how to spot signs that a collaboration is in trouble--and when it shouldn't take place at all. He'll finish up with a list of guidelines for good collaborating--including how to divide responsibilities, how to respect each other's strengths, and how to make collaborating increase your networking opportunities.
Join us: Tuesday, April 9th, 8 am
Conshohocken Marriott
Attendance limited - RSVP now!
