Food for Thought on Strategic Partnerships

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

Consultant Mark Howell has a tidbit on the power and benefits of strategic partnerships that’s really worth pondering carefully over a nice cup of tea (or a beer, whatever’s your pleasure).  Many companies are so eager to grow that they try to be all things to all people, without first having found a way to serve a particular market really well.  Mark asks: Are we better off “ adding on a capability (program or service) in the effort to reach a larger audience” . . . or would we “be better off simply trying to become fantastic in our own niche and find strategic partners in the next niche over . . . .” What do you think?

Flying solo doesn’t have to mean going it alone.

I’m Nina Kaufman.

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.

With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.

And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.

I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
