Bring your brand into the network
Whether you’re exploring a partnership or already inside it, PartnerPlus is built to put your brand to work across the GBN network.
Become a Vendor Partner
PartnerPlus puts your brand in front of the private-club leaders who buy — a promotion in every GBN newsletter, engagement data behind every send, and a GBN team working your warm leads. Partnerships are limited per category, so your brand stands alone.

Why PartnerPlus
Marketing that workswhere relationships are made.
A network that trusts GBN
Partnerships are limited per category, and every partner offers the network an exclusive member benefit. When GBN puts your brand in front of a club leader, it arrives with the network’s credibility behind it.
Data behind every send
Every promotion is measured — sends, opens, clicks, and club-level engagement — and delivered back to you through your PartnerPlus portal and quarterly engagement reports. You always know what’s working.
A team in your corner
Strategy consultations, personal introductions to member prospects, and targeted campaigns executed on your behalf. This is a partnership with people in it — not a self-serve ad platform.
