What is Cooperative Marketing? 

Cooperative marketing is working together in non competitive groups. The goal is to pool resources and talents to compete with for a larger piece of the market share.

The group becomes a support network for business women as they deal with the day to day challenges of small business. They provide support and help to brain storm ideas and solve problems. As a group they can offer the marketplace more at a lower personal cost.

The group would showcase themselves to the marketplace through a number of avenues. They would share advertising costs, direct mail costs and trade show costs. The group would host events for women to come together and have a fun informative and relaxing shopping experience. As a group they would be able to do more and expand their market.

Cooperative marketing is a way for the small business women to compete with the larger stores, such as Wal Mart. There are many benefits of working together and at Carennedy Solutions we organize, lead and motivate the groups to succeed.

How to Make a Decision 

So many women today want to stay home but feel financially unable to do so. So many struggle with the decision and are not confident that they've made the right one regardless. So how do you make a decision that you can be confident was right for you? It's a matter of understanding the weighted value of your priorities.

Make a list of all the factors in your decision and choose one as your number one priority. Give this priority a value of 10. Put all the factors of your decisions into two camps, stay home or work outside of the home. Give each of these factors or priorities a weighted value in relation to your number one priority.

For example:

Raising my child Value = 10

Stay home camp

More time to run the home, errands and make meals Value =3
Able to take industry courses I've wanted to take Value =7
Cook healthier dinners and bake healthier snacks for the family Value =4
Less stress due to having more time to do everything Value =8

Work Outside the Home Camp

Continue career advancement and keep prestige of title Value =9
Have money to go on vacation Value =7
Have money to buy stuff and put child in programs Value =5

Once your done place your number one value in it's rightful camp, add up the weighted values to determine which camp is a greater priority for you.

If after you have done this you feel that is not the right decision then you may have weighted your factors wrong and need to take an honest look at your priorities, not your idealized priorities.

The answer is not as cut and dry as this, but it is a start. If you are still really struggling with which choice to make you need to speak to someone who can help you analyse the problem and help you make the decision.

Carennedy Solutions helps women make decisions by analysing the problem with questions. We ask lots of questions to help you come up with what you want to do. From there we look for resources available to enable you to do what you want. We look at the problem from a third party perspective and look outside the box for creative solutions.
