A better first collaboration

You don’t need a big audience to start collaborating. Find a founder whose product serves people like your customers, then suggest something useful you can do for each other.

Start with one idea

Try a guest post, a newsletter mention, or a shoutout. A small, clear request is easier to say yes to than an open-ended offer to partner.

Show what you can offer

Spend a few minutes exploring their product before you reach out. Explain why it would interest your audience and what you can share. Be honest about your reach; a small, relevant audience can still be valuable.

Agree on the details

Once your request is accepted, use your Collabe conversation to decide what each of you will do and when. For a newsletter swap, that might mean agreeing on the copy, links and send dates. When you’ve both finished, mark the collaboration complete.

Keep in touch

Share how it went. Did people click, sign up or reply? If the collaboration worked for both of you, suggest another. One introduction can give you someone to keep growing with.
