Along those lines, when I started BEAHIVE I considered partnerships but haven't yet fully explored any. Although I should say that we opened a 2nd location in our region (40 miles away) by partnering with a regional magazine (who owns the building).
Anyone have any other good examples like PariSoMa's one with Zipcar? Particularly those that are more small-town community focused (local retailers, service providers, etc.).
