SME Alliances
A company by itself can not develop in dimension which we would like to and probably will not be competitive, in my country I have found that new companies are created, grow up to certain limits, reach a certain level and that certain level, they can not pass and some end up sinking, because they do not know how to grow or try to grow without new ideas. When a SME company grows and reaches a point where he fails to move forward, it is time to look for new alternatives. One of the options that have adopted not only small enterprises but large companies is to establish strategic alliances. Even large companies that are engines of small businesses, somehow seek to establish partnerships with small businesses, to reduce raw material costs, or for that matter inventory premium this in required time and with features that asks the company in the stock in the store. Also pharmacies, fast food, supermarkets and other shops ofline shops seek to establish alliances with new customers to through the so-called franchises, these shops charge an income monthly or yearly by allowing to use franchises, some are up to the same land owners.
As you will understand strategic alliances always they have worked, even the same politicians looking for partner to generate agreements, in the school begins to work much on computer, found that two minds are better than a single working. What can a strategic alliance we? Share information, experience, clients, reaching another market, reduce costs, increase sales, create barriers to entry and provide solutions to customers needs. It basically allows us to expand us, without losing independence and flexibility. So to work in cooperation with another company is likely that we will reach our goals faster than if we would have done separately. In the case of SMEs, they tend to be their structural obstacles which do not allow them to carry out their strategic alliances.
