Why Affiliate Partners Choose RelateGREAT! Academy

The 7 Principles for Building Strong Families is not hype-driven or trend-based—it’s a practical, therapist-created framework built on decades of clinical experience and real-world application.

A Note to Therapists, Coaches, & Helping Professionals

At this stage of my career, I am intentionally scaling back direct client work and scaling up my books, programs, and self-guided courses as my primary focus. I am not seeking to grow my therapy or coaching practice further, and I do not upsell or funnel people into private services.

I continue to work with a limited number of clients through my existing referral base, but Building Strong Families is designed specifically as an educational, non-therapy resource that complements—not competes with—the work you’re already doing.

BSF fits in alongside the valuable work you are doing with your clients and enhances your offerings. Many professionals use BSF as a between-sessions resource, a value add-on, or a recommendation they can feel confident making without concern about losing clients or referring people away from their care.

You are welcome to:

1. Share it on a case-by-case basis (there is no minimum quota).

And/or...

2. Promote it as much as you want to make as much as you want (there is no commission cap limit), as some therapists and coaches use affiliate marketing as an additional income stream for products, programs, and services that align with their work.

Either way, it's a win for you, for me, and for as many individuals, couples, parents, and children we can reach to become more securely attached, emotionally intelligent, skillful, and loving in their families.

Testimonials:
Why Affiliate Partners Feel Comfortable Recommending BSF

“I’m careful about what I share with my audience. Jonathan's 7 Principles Building Strong Families is something I recommend when people ask for something thoughtful and practical — not another quick fix. It fits naturally into conversations about relationships and family life.”

— Content creator/influencer

“I've been an affiliate marketer of products for years, however, I don’t promote many programs. But this one felt different. Building Strong Families isn’t flashy — it’s solid. That’s why I’m comfortable recommending it.”

— Affiliate Marketer

“People often come to me wanting guidance but not necessarily counseling. The Building Strong Families book and masterclass has been a helpful resource I can recommend. It’s grounded, respectful, and gives families something concrete to work on without pressure.”

— Pastor

“Parents often ask for resources they can actually use. Building Strong Families gives our students' parents a framework that’s clear and accessible, without overwhelming them or making them feel like something is ‘wrong.’”

— School Principal

“We’re always looking for resources that support employees’ personal lives without crossing into therapy. The BSF program (book and course) works well because it’s educational, accessible, and respectful of different family situations.”

— HR Director

“I shared BSF because it genuinely helped my own family. When friends ask what’s worked for us, this is something I feel good passing along — and it’s been nice earning a little extra by recommending something I believe in.”

— Stay at Home Mom (SAHM)

Who BSF is for

  • Couples who want to strengthen their relationship.

  • Parents who want to be more intentional.

  • Families navigating stress or transition.

  • People who want a non-clinical resource.

  • Those not ready for therapy, or who want something complementary.

Who BSF is not for:

Building Strong Families is not for couples or families seeking crisis intervention, intensive therapy, or immediate conflict resolution — it’s designed for intentional, non-clinical growth.

Between-Sessions Use Case

(For Therapists)

Many therapists use Building Strong Families (BSF) as a between-sessions support — a way for clients to stay engaged with the work without feeling overwhelmed or over-assigned. Because BSF is non-clinical and strengths-based, clients can explore core ideas around connection, emotional safety, and attachment at their own pace, then bring insights or questions back into session. This often helps sessions move more efficiently, reduces re-teaching, and gives partners a shared language that supports the therapeutic process rather than replacing it.

Is BSF therapy?

No. BSF is not therapy, treatment, or counseling. It is an educational and informational product, based in:

  • 30 years of experience as a marriage and family therapist, family educator, speaker, and author.

  • And the larger body of research-based and evidence-based best practices in the family studies field.

Can BSF be used alongside therapy or coaching?
Yes. Many professionals recommend it as a supplement or between-sessions resource.

If I'm a therapist or a coach, will I possibly lose clients who take BSF to an upsell offer?
BSF is intentionally non-competitive with therapy and coaching practices. Jonathan does not upsell his therapy or coaching services with any of his online programs. This is a program to complement and add to the work you are doing to support your clients and enhance your work with them.

No. While the program is therapist-created, affiliates do not need clinical credentials. We simply ask that partners share the program ethically and in alignment with its mission of improving family life for individuals, couples, parents, and children.

Do I need to actively promote this?
You can, but no, you don't need to.

Some affiliates share BSF quietly and selectively as needed.

Others share BSF as a part of generating regular income for themselves while getting the word out about strengthening families. Either is totally fine.

Do I get access to the course myself?
Yes. Approved affiliates receive full access at no charge. It's always better to be able to promote something you have confidence in yourself.
