[edit] Techniques

Elliott's basic approach with joint ventures is twofold (although in Joint Adventures he lists 30 separate joint venture strategies):

Firstly, he subscribes to Zig Ziglar's approach of

You can get anything out of life, if you’re prepared to give enough other people what they want

ie. if you can find out what another person or organization needs and fulfil that need, you will be able to get what you want in return[1].

Secondly, he argues that every resource you need is already available to you since through the power of leverage you can access money, databases, distribution, credibility or anything else you might need via joint ventures[1].

He advocates the use of a memorandum of understanding when setting up joint ventures to prevent misunderstandings without recourse to creating potentially expensive legal contracts[1].
