Regrettably, plenty of people think of business plans only for new businesses, or for applying f... more...

I can remember my earlier days standing on my car lot hoping, praying and waiting for a customer to pull in. Back then you may have had 5 auto dealerships all on the same side of the highway; competition has always been very intense. With every type of promotion you could imagine focused at potential customers, if you lacked creativity then it probably resulted in you being one of the bottom feeders in our market. There also used to be a time when all you simply had to do was build your d... more...

A joint venture is a temporary business alliance between two parties that come together to take advantage of the others' abilities to do something productive and earn profits from the business collectively.
