After the crazy year that was, it's time to hit the ground running
in 2021! Make the resolution to work on you and your business this year.
The COVID-19 pandemic hit everyone differently - did your business
take a hit? Busier than ever thanks to the HomeBuilder grant? Bit of
both?
Here's why joining your Association, the Building Designers'
Association of Queensland (BDAQ), is 2021's best way to invest in your
business and career...
Technical Support
We're one big family here at BDAQ, which means our members LOVE to
help each other. If you've got a technical question, look no further
than our extensive technical support network.
Between our members-only Facebook group, friendly Head Office team,
sub-committee chairs and partners, we've got a diverse knowledge base at
your fingertips. You'll get an answer quickly and from the people who
know best (no half-hearted answers here!).
Whether you're just starting out, a sole trader or experienced business
owner, you'll love being part of our community!
Discounts!
Who doesn't love a good dollar saving hack? By far one of our best
value member benefits is thanks to the good folk at Webber Insurance.
It may be a little known fact, but BDAQ members score a pretty sweet
discount when they take out their Professional Indemnity insurance with
Webber!
Daniel, Chris and the team are known for being efficient, helpful and
knowledgeable - if you have a question about your insurance, they'll get
you an answer (and treat you like the VIP you are!).
Upskill, upskill, upskill!
2020 seemed to be the year for learning new things - whether you
adopted an iso-hobby or got swept up in the science of COVID-19!
You're never too old, experienced or knowledgeable to get better at
what you do for a living. That's why BDAQ offers a wide range of
in-house CPD and masterclasses offered both online and in-person. We
also hand deliver the most relevant industry news right to your inbox
every week! From legislative updates to the latest products to hit the
market to case studies, you'll never feel like you're lagging behind
again.
We do the hard work for our members to make sure they're always at the
top of their game. The best bit? Our learning opportunities are FREE for
members!
Let Your Business Stand Out
If you play your cards right, your business can get some serious bang for buck from your BDAQ membership.
We're constantly working hard to shout about our members from the rooftops!
Our website, Find a Building Designer, features all our members and helps consumers find a Building Designer in their area.
Small Business Support
We know lots of our members are sole traders or small business owners, so we work to provide support to help you thrive!
Your local branch hosts meetings where you can network and connect with other small business owners in your area.
With local networking opportunities, business masterclasses (both online
and in person), small business news delivered right to your inbox and
our member support network, advice is never far away.
Our Head Office team is located in the Build and Design Centre,
where hundreds of consumers pass through our showroom every week to
speak with our friendly team about finding the right Building Designer
for them.
Our annual awards magazine is showcased in Queensland Home Design + Living, a magazine that targets and goes out to consumers across the state.
And that's all before we even mention our annual Building Design Awards program! The work of our members is showcased at Regional, State and National level awards every year, with winners getting great coverage across digital (Instagram, Facebook) and print advertising.
