Getting started

Building meaningful partnerships isn’t about ticking boxes or adding logos to a website.

It’s about creating value with organisations and individuals who are genuinely invested in your platform’s success. This journey often begins with assessment, for example:

  • Who are your current partners and what roles do they play?
  • What is your partnership offer?
  • What can they give and what do they need from others?
  • What values do your partners hold and do those align with the platform’s mission?
  • Are your partners ready to engage?

A co-design workshop and 1-2-1s can be a great way to test out deeper collaborations before a platform is launched. By following this process, our clients can build partnerships that help their platform grow and evolve, instead of looking back in a year or two wondering how they could have increased engagement.

At Made Open, we’re passionate about helping our clients build proactive, mutually beneficial collaborations. If you're ready to build meaningful partnerships, we're here to help you get started.
