Spark School Better Together: Collaborating with Local Businesses
Advertisement
What happens when local businesses stop working in their own little bubbles and start creating things together?
Join us for a casual, practical conversation about collaborating with other local businesses, makers, and creatives through cross-promotions, pop-ups, special events, and unexpected partnerships.
Meet the Panel
✨Shannon Wiedman | Starbird Lounge
✨Ashley Morken | Unglued
✨Sean Syverson | Swing Barrel Brewing
These local business owners know a thing or two about creating experiences, building community, and finding creative ways to work with other businesses and organizations.
We'll talk about real collaborations they've tried, what made them work, lessons they've learned along the way, and how other small business owners can create partnerships of their own.
We'll dig into:
👉How to find businesses that make sense to collaborate with
👉Cross-promotions that actually benefit both businesses
👉Pop-ups, events, and other creative partnership ideas
👉What makes someone say yes to a collaboration
👉What they've learned from collaborations that didn't go as planned.
👉Ideas you can take and try in your own business
Whether you own a business, have a side hustle, are building a creative venture, or are still exploring an idea, you'll leave with practical ideas and inspiration for working with others in the local business community.
Come for the ideas. Leave with a few people you should probably collaborate with.
Presented by the Spark Center for Entrepreneurship.
