Partnerships are like marriages: good ones make everything better. In business, choosing and working with a partner requires the same kind of commitment to honest communication. The benefits can be extraordinary. Think GoPro and Red Bull, Taco Bell and Doritos, Nike and Apple.

Each can discover new markets, new uses for products and greater customer insight, as well as improved marketing results. January/February 2019 ■ PULSE 31
