1. What is a buying group?
A buying group like TAG is a collective of businesses (like builders, tradies, and suppliers) that pool their purchasing power to get better deals, discounts, and access to exclusive offers on materials, tools, and services. By joining, you can save money and get support in running your business more efficiently.
2. How does a buying group save me money?
By being part of a larger group, you get to buy in bulk or access special pricing that individual businesses wouldn’t normally get. This means you can get discounted rates on the products and services you need, from tools and materials to insurance and finance.
3. What do I need to do to join TAG?
Joining TAG is simple. Simply reach out and one of our team can set you up to get access to the member portal, they can get all the info needed to set you up. Like any membership there is a fee, which our team will discuss which package can best suit your business then simply add your cc or direct deposit detail into your account page on the member portal to get full access to TAG. After that, you’ll be approved, and you can start accessing the benefits immediately.
4. What are the costs involved in joining?
TAG’s membership costs are typically low compared to the savings you get from the discounts. The exact cost will depend on the level of membership and the benefits you choose. You can usually offset these fees quickly by saving on products and services and if you don’t there is always our money back guarantee*.
5. What kind of discounts can I expect?
TAG members get access to exclusive discounts across a wide range of suppliers, from building materials to safety equipment, and even insurance and finance services. Discounts can range anywhere from 5% to 30%, depending on the product and supplier.
6. Will I still be able to buy from my current suppliers?

Some suppliers may offer additional benefits or even exclusive deals to TAG members, which might encourage you to shift some of your purchases to these suppliers.
7. How do I know if TAG is right for my business?
