When you sign up and join to be an Affiliate or Brand Partner with the Think Goodness Company, you have these things in common:
1. Make a commission on every piece or product you sell via your link.
2. The ability to redeem your earned commissions in the form of cash or 2x in product credit.
But do you knowā¦
ā¦ how it works?
In this post, I will be highlighting and contrasting the major differences between an Affiliate and a Brand Partner with Think Goodness. And if, perhaps you find that neither of the two options work for you but love all of our products, consider a third option. Read on!
Q: What are the differences between an Affiliate Account + a Brand Partner!?!?
A: oh so manyā¦
š² AFFLIATE:
- No fee to apply + no yearly tech fee.
- 15% commissions {paid weekly} / 15% personal discount
- No restrictions
- Not eligible for monthly incentives, perks, trips, bonuses etc
- Must have at least 1 sale in a year to keep account
- Can’t sponsor or refer new affiliates
- log in to back office just like a BP
š this account is really meant for influencers who share links
š to upgrade to BP, use the Widget or call customer service to have Affiliate account closed. Once closed, purchase BP kit to get started.
š BRAND PARTNER:
- New BP starting commission 35% paid weekly / 35% personal discount. Increase to 40% for life after $3,500 sales {no time limit}.
- Legacy BP’s 40% commission / personal discount
- 30% on subscriptions + licensed products
- ability to earn monthly incentives, perks, trips, bonuses etc
- unlimited free training, coaching, community
- $250 Retail minimum sales required every 3 months
- ability to earn over 3k in product credit your first year {see handbook for new BP Milestone Bonuses}
- begin with a deeply discounted Product Box {47% – 58% off retail!} for $199

Are you thinking about it?
Maybe I can help.
My personal analysis: Whichever one you choose, consider how you see yourself tied to the company.
If you are interested in sharing one or all of Think Goodnessā line and pretty much no other products else online and offline, become a Brand Partner.
If Think Goodness products are just one of many things you share or talk about in hopes to make a commission and want nothing more, become an Affiliate.
If you prefer a community of āsales repsā that get connected with āsales team leadersā in the field who teach and encourage how to sell the Think Goodness products, becoming a Brand Partner is for you.
If you prefer a hands-off approach by any of the companies you share online and only interested in the potentially passive incomes affiliate links provide and nothing more, becoming an Affiliate is for you.
My statements above is to share with you the two ways to be connected to the Think Goodness Company; as a sales person representing the products or as an online marketer that potentially includes Think Goodness as one of their products mentioned.
Both of these two roles will dictate your approach in sales and play out differently in your day to day duties compared to the other.
Will you be spending your time predominantly sharing Think Goodness products or will you be sharing all of things you have an affiliate link for and maybe Think Goodness products here and there?
If you have not noticed already: Yes, there is a huge difference in % of commissions earned per item sold by a Brand Partner vs. an Affiliate, but the %, in my opinion, ought to be secondary to oneās preferred role with the company and their requirements to remain with them. Lesser contact, the lower the commitment and lower the commission compared to a Brand Partner, but no minimums as an Affiliate.
What I mean by this isā¦ See the % in sales commission as the byproduct of the desired level (or time commitment) with its founders, trainers, and community of fellow Brand Partners and its sales requirements.
With all this said, which one is for you?
