No matter what “position” you play in this Opti-Sphere, Partnership via close Collaboration is the way to go. Two heads are better than one. Heartship trounces hardship. The simple task of reaching out is the key to positive interaction. And… as witnessed right here at 20/20… it works with branding, licensing, professional kinships and the ever-so simple factor of uniting for a common cause. We demonstrate that with a feature this month built on fashion and lifestyle brands in the vendor/retailer scenario but take it to your sales teams, your vendors, your ECP colleagues and your current and future teams and teammates as you… practice the Art of the Collab.
