While everyone's buzzing about business collaborations and partnerships as the golden ticket to growth, achieving a true win-win isn't always as simple as it seems. In this episode, Gwen Bortner and Tonya Kubo, seasoned internet veterans and business strategists, cut through the noise to reveal the essential elements of successful collaborations versus formal partnerships. Gwen, with her meticulous approach and operational expertise, distinguishes between fleeting collaborations and lasting partnerships, while Tonya offers her unfiltered insights on setting expectations and avoiding misaligned goals to ensure a truly win-win outcome. Learn why many collaborations never get off the ground, what fuels a thriving joint venture, and the crucial step of planning your "breakup" from day one to guarantee a positive, win-win result for all parties involved, all while navigating today's complex business environment.
