"Joint venturing is an essential part of successful entrepreneurship. Most people, though, do it by the seat of their pants and out of sheer necessity. Valerie's book provides an eight-part strategic framework for building a successful joint venture, from finding the right partner all the way through to exit strategies when the partnership has run its course. The section on integrating human resources is especially strong, and that is perhaps the most important, but least understood aspect of successful joint ventures. An essential guide for the entrepreneur who's realized they can't go it alone."

 

"Reading 'Happy About Joint Venturing' is like having your own business coach sharing all her expertise on how to launch and grow a successful joint-venture. Valerie truly knows her subject. I found Valerie's analytical and easy to understand thought process to be the most creative and illustrative in the industry. If you are dedicated to change and want to be challenged by a very experienced coach, Valerie may be just what you are looking for." Two thumbs up!

 

"As the business world becomes global, more complex, and as technology rapidly changes, being able to form successful joint ventures becomes a must. Valerie's book is a great concrete tool toward that goal and guides entrepreneurs, managers and business owners to get better armed to execute on the art of partnering."

 

"Three years ago, my income from joint venturing was zero. Last year, it was over 33% of my total revenues. Not knowing about joint venturing in the 21st Century is like not knowing about about computers in the 20th Century. After you read 'Happy About Joint Venturing' you will know what every successful business person must know."
