I have been able to strengthen vendor connections by creating a joint communications plan that highlights mutual value. That mutual value creation can greatly affect your connections and terms. Collaborate on press releases, case studies, and event messaging to showcase shared successes. This approach not only amplifies vendor visibility but also fosters trust and partnership, setting the stage for better terms and deeper collaboration at future events.
