Partnerships: everyone says you have to do them.
But most of that advice is dangerously naive, bordering on incompetent.
This episode discusses self-serving agendas and ineffectual approaches that tanked collaborations, as well as successful partnerships that drove great commercial outcomes (and why).
Listen in and hear:

  • How a software company and a diversity & inclusion service provider created a successful partnership by filling each other's gaps.
  • How a software company and a service company thrived by filling each other's competency gaps.
  • How partnering with drafters allowed an engineering software company to bypass 10 barriers to entry.
  • The Accountant/Cleaner Catastrophe: One of the worst partnership ideas we've ever seen.
  • An example of a software development company successfully partnering with UX agencies.
  • Terrible advice a business coach publicly gave on partnerships.

This episode was co-hosted by:
Brand Strategist Jack Ferguson

and
Product Marketing Specialist Alex Urquhart
