Emerging Negative Tendencies On The JV Scenario! (c) CopyrightS. Kumar 2004-2005 http://www.learnhomebusiness.com Would you ever propose a JV to a potential partner that insultshis intelligence, aims to squeeze the potential in his listsbrutally and later on leaving him with a corrupted list? Would you ever participate fully in a JV where the sole aim isto prostitute your hard earned, well maintained lists?
As I write this, I have received 3 major JV invitations forChristmas and one of them -- quite frankly, will result inserious abuse of your lists. Two e.g. are given below. 1. There is a 12 day stuff going on where the JV partnerssubscribers were initialy forced to download an emailapplication which these JV proponent is trying to promote! Andas a JV partner you don't know about it is until you yourselfenroll for receiving these gifts! But these guys became wise soon, changed their wrong approachand showed the commitment to come up to the expectations of theJV partners. 2. Another JV venture, 117 gifts, is outrageous! Your subscriberis put through 6 steps before he gets the first set of gifts! Your subscriber has to click through their product promotionpage twice. The objective is very clear! It is NOT to build thelists of both the JV proponent and JV partner, but it is a cheapploy to sell the products of the JV proponent! Again the JV partner is neither aware nor informed about this!He joins with the dream of getting a truck load ofsubscribers...but in fact he is compromising his own lists. What kind of a JV is this where participants are taken for aride with hidden motives? Joining for JV's like this will seriously undermine youreffectiveness with the future interaction with your lists. So what are the basic steps to remember while proposing a JV orparticipating in a JV? For The JV Proponent -------------------- 1. Today you may be a guru. People may flock
at your doorstep toenter into your JV. But the moment you stop giving value andbecomes interested only in getting value from your JV partner,you are inviting trouble. A JV is always a Win-Win situation.Remember that basic line forever as a JV proponent. 2. Put every card on the table to the JV partner. After all, heis your equal partner...not someone to be taken for a ride.Remember that you are entering into JV for substantial mutualbenefit and your JV partner is not there to receive crumbs fromyou. 3. Avoid all types of hype with JV partner! After all, if youconsider someone as your JV partner, he has some standing forhimself in the market as well as he is successful in his ownway! Do not insult his intelligence. For The JV Participant --------------------- 1. Carefully study the JV proposal before you jump into one! Donot start blasting to your list just because there is a word'Gift' for your subscribers. 2. Do not fall for the hype. Remember that your list is one ofthe most important ingredients of your online business. Respectyour subscribers and care for them. Do not expose them tounscrupulous marketers who comes out with so called 'JV's. 3. Always do a 'SWOT'. That is, identify the Strengths,Weakness, Opportunities and Threats before you participate in aJV. 4. Do not be scared that you will be left out of the race! Havethe full confidence that your business came into existence NOTbecause of these so called gurus. It is because of your hardwork, your will to learn, integrity, customer orientation andthe products you chose! In a nut shell: Propose and participate in JVs if you mean itall the way!
