"A successful marketing  partnership can be the jewel in the crown of a company's strategic plan. Such partnerships demand sustained commitment and effort from all involved, but rewards can go far beyond increased sales alone."

Partnership Marketing is gaining popularity amongst top companies as they look for ways to maximize marketing efficiency.

 

Partnership programs are fully-integrated marketing initiatives involving two or more brands, where each contributes certain marketing assets on a fair value exchange basis.

 

Affinity Partners offers a total partnership solution and provides clients with the following:

  • Strategic Planning
  • Partner selection
  • Negotiation and agreement
  • Fair value assessment
  • Program planning and design
  • Implementation
  • Management
  • Tracking and reporting

 

Each “partnership” is unique and requires understanding and sensitivity to both sides of the relationship.  Affinity Partners creates the relationship and independently oversees each party’s responsibilities. In addition to program development and management, as intermediaries, we enhance communications, resolve conflicts and ensure the parties are delivering on their commitments.

 

Success requires:

·        Careful conception and planning

·        Ability to assess the complex union of brand strengths and weaknesses of potential partners

·        Understanding of how to structure and negotiate an effective partnership

·        Execution and tracking across multiple channels.

·        Fair value exchange

·        Senior level buy in and commitment

·        Non - competitive

 

Our programs include brand partnerships and alliances, affinity marketing programs, referral marketing and affiliate marketing.
