I think if you have to do any serious amount of selling, the collaboration shouldn't happen.
Like Karthik said, a collaboration is most easily formed because two teams know each other really well, and already use each other as a forum for trading and testing ideas.
If you just approached a team because they had a complimentary set of resources to what you have, I don't think it would work nearly as well. Instead of just getting right to work, you'd have to spend your time just establishing a bond and working relationship between each other.
