An Introduction To Joint Ventures - Articles Surfing

So, you're an online marketer with a great idea that you know will be loved by your target market. You're quite certain that it's going to be a venerable cash cow once it is implemented properly. The problem is, your resources are quite wanting at the moment. For starters, you have yet to establish a credible brand that could instantly win consumer confidence. You will not be able to sell the product that would result from your idea on the strength of your name alone. Also, your mailing list is composed of ten subscribers, all of whom you have painstakingly sought out throughout two years' or even more. More importantly, you don't have the financial capital to fund the production of your idea.

So, what should be done? Should you give up on your grand idea just like that?

Hold your horses, dear friend. There is a way that you could avail of to have your idea see the light of day.

It's called joint venturing, or JV as it has fondly been called in the online marketing scene. Joint ventures are partnerships between two or more online marketers, all of whom pool together their resources to ensure the success of a particular project. Once profit is realized, these partners employ a previously established profit-sharing scheme. Everyone who chipped in would be given his just share. And everyone would go home happy.

If you don't have the resources for the idea you have in mind, you could seek out some online businessmen who would be willing to enter a joint venture with you. Why would they want to partner up with someone like you? Well, there are many benefits that can be had with joint ventures which they will find pretty hard to resist.

' Since several people will pool together their resources for a joint venture, the risks can be minimized. Assuming the worst scenario that the project would fail, the losses would be less since it will be borne by several individuals, compared to the losses that can be incurred by a sole endeavor.

' Joint ventures allow online marketers to compensate for missing components in their portfolios. Don't have a big mailing list? Partner up with someone who has tens and thousands of subscribers. Don't have the cash to fund production? Seek out someone who has some extra money to invest. Don't have an idea that can be profitably pursued? Seek out a creative soul beaming with novel concepts that are begging to be exploited.

' Joint ventures help build your brand in the online marketing community. If you're an intermediate marketer who manages to enter a joint venture with a renowned guru, you'd be able to enjoy an instant boost to your reputation in the industry.

' Joint ventures foster great relationships between marketers. The experience of having worked with each other can blossom into friendship and future partnerships.

There is no reason for an online marketer to refuse whatever helpful contribution you could provide for a project. He may be a well established personality in the industry, and you're just a cub who's starting out, but you may possess something that he does not have, and this would make you a valuable part of the team.

The trick, really, is in knowing where to seek out some joint venture partners. If you have a great idea backed up by an equally amazing business plan, then finding willing partners would be easy, if you're looking for them in the right places.

Here's a tip. Join online business forums and start posting significant messages. Be a helpful member of the community and build your reputation. Then publish a thread the calls for joint venture partners. Explain to your respondents what you have in mind, and chances are, they'll be more than interested to get started at the soonest possible time.

Joint ventures prove that in internet marketing, there is no such thing as lack of resources. What can lead to failure in this field is lack of imagination.
