The Collaboration Kit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781658224703)

Collaboration can be the easiest, most effective and least expensive way to quickly produce new programs, tours and events - but only if you work with the right partner.

The Collaboration Kit is a practical, how-to guide written specifically for people working in local history and tourism.

Topics include:

• The benefits of collaborating
• How to find and approach potential partners
• What to do if you're approached
• Why to consider working with competitors
• Red flags
• Program examples and suggestions
• Four real world case studies including a detailed analysis of a single doomed program that went off the rails twice with two different partners

There's even a sample collaboration agreement you can adopt and adapt to your own situation.
