How to find people to partner with
Find someone who serves a similar audience, then suggest a small project that helps both of you.
“Let's partner” is a hard message to answer. Partner on what? How much work will it take? Why would it help?
It gets easier when you have a small project in mind. A workshop, a useful integration, or a guest session gives the other person something they can picture.
Work out what you could do together
Suppose you make invoicing software for photographers and want to co-host a session on pricing photo work. Someone who runs a community or teaches courses for photographers could be a good person to speak with.
Ask ReacherX:
Find people on X/Twitter and LinkedIn who run communities or teach courses for photographers. I'd like to co-host a practical session about pricing client work. Look for people whose recent work relates to that topic.
Open the results and read what they teach. You want a reason their audience would care, not just a large follower count.
