It is a way for sole proprietors and small businesses offering complementary services to work together.
They look to each other to offer a wider range of services to their clients and customers. They pool their marketing, promotional and advertising efforts for greater impact. They work together to submit joint bids and proposals. They come up with new ideas and opportunities. They learn from each other.
It is a way for you or your organization to be online-amazing.
