BrandPower has been around forever! I remember seeing the commercials as a kid. They always featured the latest and greatest products to hit the supermarket shelves and they still do. It’s just more awesome now that I’m grown up 😀 Although using BrandPower Home Tester Club is not hard, learning where to go and what you’re suppose to do once you get there can be a little tricky. That’s why we have put together this guide to help you!
What is BrandPower Home Tester Club
BrandPower Home Tester Club is an online community for people who love new products! You can learn and read reviews about new products from consumers just like you! You can also suggest new products that you’ve seen or tried for review.
As a member of the BrandPower Home Tester Club you will occasionally be given the opportunity to receive coupons, special offers and free products to try and review. All you have to do is complete a short survey about your experience with the products after you’ve tried them!
How To Join
Joining is easy! Simply visit the BrandPower website and click one of the blue Join Now Buttons.
You will then have to complete a survey about yourself and your family. This information will be used to help decide if you qualify for sampling opportunities (more on that to come). Be sure to fully complete your profile including your mailing address!
If you are new to BrandPower Home Tester Club, I would appreciate it very much if you could use the email address savingyourloonies@gmail.com as your referrer when signing up! Thanks 
Once you’ve registered, you can sign in using your username & password in the red Login box at the top of the page.
Come back often and participate in the BrandPower Community. The more active you are, the better your chances of being selected for sampling opportunities.
Get Active in the Community
The main focus of BrandPower is to give consumers the opportunity to give unbiased & uncensored feedback about new products. This in turn can help others make smart shopping decisions. Outside of sampling campaigns (we will talk about those soon, I promise!), there are several ways for you to stay active in the BrandPower Community.
NEW PRODUCT WATCH
New Product Watch is the area where you can leave feedback on products you have tried. If you want to know more about a product, this is the place you should look!
Visit this area at least once per month to leave your opinions. Scroll through the list of the products posted each month to find things you may have tried. Each product gives you a quick glimpse of how many reviews and recommendations it’s had. Click on a product to learn more about it and read the reviews. If you wish to leave a review, this is where you do it!
RECIPE WATCH
Similar to the New Product Watch, Recipe Watch is an area for you to share, read and rate recipes. Search for a new dinner idea and read reviews before you try it. Like or leave it? Share your thoughts with the rest of the community!
BRANDPOWER SPOTLIGHTS
BrandPower Spotlights are essentially the same as New Product Watch items, except these are the ones you will see featured on TV ads. Don’t forget to share your thoughts on these products too! It’s done exactly the same as the New Product Watch reviews.
I hate to say this again, but make sure you participate frequently! BrandPower will sometimes randomly select members who leave reviews, to receive a product prize pack! It can be that easy to get free stuff!
Home Tested Sampling Campaigns
Now this is where everyone gets all excited! One of the best things about BrandPower Home Tester Club is that they give members the opportunity to test and review new products for FREE through sampling campaigns! All you have to do is give your feedback on the product(s) you receive in the form of a short survey. In all of the sampling campaigns I’ve been a part of so far, BrandPower has added some extra incentive for Home Testers. Once you’ve completed your review, you will be entered into a draw to win another prize!
WHEN ARE SAMPLES AVAILABLE
Campaigns do not have a set schedule of availability. Often, BrandPower will give some clues about new offers through their newsletters and Facebook Page so you should make sure to be a part of both. We watch carefully for these and will alert you if we spot these hints!
When there are NO Campaigns running you will see this Blue Box on the BrandPower Home Page as well as under the Home Tested section of the website.
When a new Campaign becomes available the wording will change to reflect that. Once you sign in, there will be a Register Now button for you to click.
Alternately, you can click on the Home Tested tab and access the offer through that page.
WHO GETS SAMPLES
BrandPower Sampling Campaigns are open to MEMBERS ONLY! If you are not a member yet, sign up today to avoid delays when a new campaign opens.
These campaigns often have very limited spaces. Thus far, we have seen offers range from 200 participants to 1000 participants. Sometimes the offer will also be limited to certain provinces. This is all pre-determined by BrandPower and the company offering the samples. There will also be a limited amount of spaces for applicants. Once the application pool has been filled, the actual product recipients will be chosen based on whatever criteria is decided.
HOW TO APPLY
When a campaign opens up, you will have to sign into your BrandPower account. You can then click on the Register Now button in the Blue Campaign Box.You will usually have to answer a few questions before your submitting your application.
Once that is done, you will receive a message that you have been successfully entered. If you are unsure as to whether or not your application has been received, you can go back under the Home Tested section and check the Blue Box. It will give you the date and time your application was sent. Now all you have to do is sit back and wait!
HOW DO I KNOW IF I GOT IN?
Once the Campaign closes, BrandPower will send out emails to all the successful applicants. This usually happens a few days to a week after the campaign closes. If you see others are receiving emails, check your inbox. If it’s not there, be sure to check your spam/junk folder. The Sender will be Home Tester Club (many of you asked about that) and the subject will reference Home Tester Club in some way.
Once you’ve gotten that email, there is nothing more for you to do until your products arrive. Oh, that is except make sure your mailing information is correct on your profile! You don’t want someone else getting your freebies right!
RECEIVING YOUR SAMPLES
BrandPower Home Tester Kits usually arrive within a week! They are quick! Once you get your products, follow the instructions included in the package. They will be different for each offer, sometimes you are given an extra for a friend etc. Try them out for a day or two then head back to the BrandPower website.
When BrandPower says samples, they generally mean full size products! At least, in my experience that is what I have received. Take a look for yourselves, these are the Campaign Packs I’ve received!
PROVIDE YOUR FEEDBACK
A short time after receiving your samples, a survey will open up for you to provide your feedback. To access it, log in to your account then click on the Home Tested tab. There will be a Trials section, when your survey becomes available it will look like this (expect with an image related to the product you tried)
You have to complete this survey to be entered into the secondary contest drawing! Also, it is important to give your feedback on the product you received so that you may be eligible to receive future offers.
Special Points
- When new BrandPower Home Tester Club Sampling Campaigns open up, there is often a LARGE rush of traffic there. This can cause the site to run slowly or crash all together. If you are experiencing difficulties, be patient and refresh 🙂
- BrandPower also offers special coupons and giveaways for members only. So make sure you don’t miss the Promotions tab for even more offers!
- Once, in the past, BrandPower did a special Prize Pack Giveaway. It was different from the campaigns in that, you did not have to apply. The first 1000 people who signed up received the pack. They have not done another one of these giveaway since, but we can always hope! The offer was available through the Blue Campaign Box described above. Here is what I received in that pack:
