I wasn’t joking when I said sheer speed and power. Get it right and it’ll hit you with such a force you won’t know what happened until weeks later. So what’s the difference between paying for ads to be sent to lists and JV’s? Well to begin with, the main difference is the effectiveness of personal lists. The response rate, targeting and conversion rates are unmatched. I’ll give you some idea of the scope of this with some statistics in a second.

Yep, I would agree with all these comments. Most people and most businesses just don’t get joint venturing. The big guys do it pretty well and is one of the reasons they got big…
Microsoft and IBM for example.
Anyone interested can get hold of my latest and complimentary book “Partner or Perish The Obvious Truth About Business”
Have fun and joint venture away.
Best wishes
