Getting co-branding right

Co-branding can be a great option for companies looking to increase revenue by working with like-branded companies that target similar audiences. This can be a great way to increase revenues for both parties while at the same time increase both companies’ brand equity by perceived alignment. Co-branding could also be a small brand working with a large one to help the larger company generate revenues, provide access to a potential product gap in their product portfolio, and give the small brand an increase in revenue and brand awareness.
