                                Marketing Shower: "Joint promotions: Creating
                                synergies between brands"
                                15 March 2012, at Kluwer in Mechelen



Promoting our own products or services is part of daily business for marketeers. But have
you ever considered combining forces with another brand? As shared during the last
Marketing Shower of 15/03/2012, joint promotions can significantly increase the attention
for your brand and can substantially increase sales for the different parties involved.

For this edition of the Marketing Shower, the Marketing Alumni invited three experts to
share their insights on joint promotions. Bert Van Thilborg from Global Image and
Walter Devesse from B2B StratPartners elaborated on some successful examples of joint
promotions. Thomas Goethals from Uniqum tackled the legal aspects that a company
should take into consideration when opting for a joint promotion strategy.

Finding the right match is clearly a fundamental condition for the happy ending of a joint
promotion. Although there are different challenges such as the legal procedures,
marketeers should consider combined offers more often. Joint promotions are like a flirt
between two brands with great chance to result in a combined offering with a clear benefit
for you, your partner and the seduced customer.
