We all know that businesses must advertise to attract customers and make sales. It's a basic trade principle that has been in existence for centuries. The problem with a great many advertising opportunities though is that they require money up front from the advertiser. When there's no guarantee that the advertising media chosen will produce the desired results, it really is more a leap of faith than anything else!
Of course, there are alternative 'free advertising' avenues that can be pursued.

But again, these may not produce results, either because they are ineffective (hence they are free) or because they are saturated by ads from the other one million and one businesses using the service. So, what is the solution?
The Shared Advertising Concept
The solution, as it turns out, is really quite simple! Find companies with whom you can 'exchange' advertising.
A prime example of this shared advertising concept in action can be found on the Internet. Companies that have a shared economic interest - i. e. their products or services, although different, appeal to the same target audience - arrange to place advertising on each others web sites. By doing so, both companies benefit from free advertising to a highly targeted audience.
Finding companies who are interested in pursuing this idea is pretty easy too. Joint venture search companies specialize in bringing together businesses that want to work together like this.
To kick-start the process all you need do is register your interest with a joint venture facilitator, such as www.jvbase.com and let them match your company up with other parties who are interested in exchanging advertising space for free.
