Our History
Written History


1993

In August, 1993, Delxino and Deborah Wilson de Briano were a young, Black couple, struggling financially in Atlanta, Georgia. A friend introduced them to a very successful man who invited them to join his network marketing business opportunity. They joined his local "Atlanta Group" and started attending his training meetings and presentations several nights per week after work, and on Saturdays. They became committed students and learned all they could from him. Delxino and Debbie were two of only a few Blacks participating in the predominantly white business opportunity.

The early members of the Atlanta Group had a hard time selling the products and getting other people involved in the business opportunity. They brought many of their Black friends to watch the Caucasian man deliver presentations about the business opportunity. Though it sounded great, most of their Black friends could not relate to him, and therefore didn't join. As time passed, most of the early team members quit the business opportunity. A few of them, however, were committed, and kept on working...


1994

Delxino, Debbie and their team continued to work hard, through the year. In August, after a year of hard work and some small success, Delxino and Debbie realized that they would have to create an environment which catered to Black people, if Blacks were going to truly succeed in the business opportunity. They realized that Black people have a different culture, background, and way of communicating than the way they were trained.

They realized that they needed their own identity and a new marketing strategy. Since Black people worked better together as a team, they needed a TEAM marketing strategy. In August of 1994, TAG TEAM Marketing was founded. TAG TEAM stood for "The Atlanta Group - Together Everyone Achieves More".

TAG TEAM Marketing LogoDelxino and Debbie had a big vision for their organization. They loved their people and intended to make the team successful at all costs. With a hard-core work-ethic, a fun, Black family atmosphere, and a high-energy training system, the team of brothers and sisters went to work. TAG TEAM Marketing added their ethnic flavor to all aspects of the business opportunity, and soon were on their way to building a hugely successful team. They began a mission to create prosperity, love, unity and 1,000 Black millionaires. The word spread all over the Southern United States that "brothers and sisters are working together in Atlanta, making lots of money and making history!"

By the end of 1994, TAG TEAM Marketing had grown from less than 40 people to well over 5000 members. The founder of TAG TEAM Marketing, Delxino Wilson de Briano, became the number one producer in the network marketing company at age 25, and received the distinguished "Person of the Year" award for year of 1994. TAG TEAM Marketing was the number one producing team in the world, for the entire year.

TAG TEAM Marketing spread to the East Coast of the U.S. where major expansions took place. Many TAG TEAM members became wealthy in both the Southern and the Eastern U.S.

By the end of 1995, TAG TEAM Marketing had firmly established itself as a formidable entity in the network marketing industry, and grew to over 40,000 members.

By the end of 1996, TAG TEAM Marketing was generating 9.5 million dollars per month in billing and had grown to almost 90,000 members. At the end of the year, almost every national award went to TAG TEAM Marketing members, including 9 out 10 of the "Top Money Earners for the Year". Delxino Wilson de Briano was awarded the Number One Producer Awards for the third straight year, and given the top profit sharing check in the network marketing company.

1997 was a year of great achievement for TAG TEAM Marketing. Membership continued to grow and expand and so did the reach of the team. The business opportunity expanded to Canada, and new Canadian members joined TAG TEAM.

TAG TEAM Marketing Founder, Delxino Wilson de Briano, decided to take a very direct role in the leadership and training of the now huge international team. He sponsored two FREE leadership training conventions for TAG TEAM members during this year. The admission requirements were simple: you had to make at least 25 sales to get in, or 50 to get preferred seating.

TAG TEAM started hosting Black Business Seminars in order to take their knowledge of wealth and business building directly to the Black community. The same training material that was once restricted to top producing TAG TEAM members only, was being made available to the public for the first time. TAG TEAM members began selling tickets to the seminars and earning commissions from their sales.

TAG TEAM Marketing held a series of Black Business Seminars in Los Angeles, California, New York City, Washington, DC and College Park, Maryland. Each of the events were phenomenal successes.

The second series of events, entitled "The Leader In You" taught how to successfully lead a team in business and in life. People traveled from all over the United States and Canada to learn the powerful information and experience TAG TEAM Marketing's training.

TAG TEAM Marketing began promoting Black businesses at the seminars. Business owners were able to spotlight their products and services, sell their their goods and receive support from the audiences that attended the seminars. Several business owners became so successful as a result, that they traveled all over the United States to each seminar that TAG TEAM Marketing held.

TAG TEAM President Delxino and Debbie also started implementing plans for a future project. For years, they had dreamed of creating a massive marketing project that would tie Black businesses together with Black consumers all over the world. They dreamed of marketing the products and services of Black-owned businesses through TAG TEAM Marketing. The time for that grand project was nearing. But there was much ground work that needed to be done. First, they needed to unify Black business owners.

In November 2005, TAG TEAM began hosting its legendary, weekly Black Business Networking events, where Black business people met to do business with other Black people. These events became an instant sensation. Also, Black Business Seminars were held all over the country. Lastly, TAG TEAM Marketing began construction on a new headquarter facility that would house the project.

2007

Black Business NetworkIn 2007, TAG TEAM Marketing took a major step towards its goal of marketing Black products for Black-owned businesses to Black consumers.

TAG TEAM held tons of events to promote the new Black Business Network and service their members. In 2007, TAG TEAM held hundreds of Black Business Networking events, Black Business Seminars, international conference calls, TAG TEAM University classes, presentations, production events, shopping events, parties and celebrations, in various cities in the United States.

2008

TAG TEAM MovementAfter years of preparation, it was finally time to begin what Delxino and Deborah Wilson de Briano had been planning for years. At the beginning of 2008. TAG TEAM Marketing launched a revolutionary project that put the Black community to work promoting, selling and buying the products offered by Black-owned businesses. This was accomplished with three powerful programs:

(1) Black business owners joined the Black Business Network and offered their products for sale in TAG TEAM's new Buy Black Today online and retail stores.

(2) Black people joined the new TAG TEAM Business Opportunity where they went to work getting Black people to purchase products from the Buy Black Today store.

(3) Black consumers purchased the products from the online store.

Together, these programs began creating great Black wealth.

For the first time. TAG TEAM Marketing distributors were able to sell the products and services of Black-owned businesses. Now, Black-owned businesses could have their own network marketing sales-force promote and sell their products and services for them, without having to build a sales force on their own.

Several major Black-owned businesses joined the Black Business Network and began utilizing TAG TEAM Marketing to promote their businesses.

The Black Business Network program was enhanced. It became both a state of the art online community (social network) and business building tool. The new program and website officially launched on August 29th of that year, and immediately attracted new members in the thousands. Over 1,000 new members per month began joining the program.

By the end of the year, over 29,000 new members had joined the organization, from 90 countries around the world.

This year, TAG TEAM Marketing distributed significant quantities, not only of products, but of Black-provided services as well, for the first time. TAG TEAM developed several new programs to accommodate several service-based businesses, and generated tens of thousands of dollars in sales for those companies.

The product delivered outstanding health and wellness improvements to Black Business Network members who used it, which led to the amazing sales of the product.

Thousands purchased products and services from Black-owned businesses in the Black Business Network in 2011, which led to TAG TEAM Marketing achieving a ground-breaking milestone; 39,000 products and services sold, matching the 39,000 members of the network. That means that on average, every single member of the Black Business Network who signed up (for free), purchased at least one product or service from a Black-owned business in the program. This 1 to 1 member to sales ratio has rarely (if ever) been achieved by an organization when offering free membership to the public, with membership in the tens of thousands. This achievement clearly showed that the TAG TEAM Marketing was reaching its goals, making buying Black a reality for tens of thousands of Black people, bringing much needed revenue to Black-owned businesses, and making a major impact in the Black community.

The new Buy Black Movement consisted of three main programs: (1) The Black Business Network - for business owners to supply products, (2) TAG TEAM Marketing Opportunity - for Marketers to sell the products and (3) Supporter Program - for committed Black consumers to buy the products.

With this change, the purpose of the movement became much more self-explanatory. As a result, the Buy Black Movement expanded at an even higher rate.

Black people bought more Black-made products than ever in 2018, as many thousands of Black-made products were sold and shipped to Black consumers worldwide. Members of the Buy Black Movement achieved stellar new incom levels as well.

TAG TEAM Marketing held a powerful 3-day Marketer Training Camp in Atlanta, Georgia, where committed Marketers learned the skills necessary to build their businesses. This led to explosions of production by several of these members.

2020

COVID-192020 was a year of unexpected change. The COVID-19 virus took the world by storm and resulted in a complete lock-down of the United States and most of the world, for most of the year. Millions of Black people couldn't leave home or travel. This resulted in the cancellation of most of our live events, including our 2020 annual convention and a move to doing everything virtually. It also was a year of terrible injustice against Black people that led to massive demonstrations all over the United States.

Despite the obvious challenges that TAG TEAM Marketing and our members faced, there was a silver lining. More and more Black people moved to shopping online since they couldn't travel to stores. Also, the demand for natural health products increased greatly due to health concerns. Furthermore, as more Black people demanded social justice, the Buy Black Movement became an alternative to buying from establishment businesses.

Increase Sales GraphTAG TEAM Marketers took advantage of the changes and promoted more than ever during 2020. As a result, the Buy Black Movement BOOMED and sales of Black-made products DOUBLED in 2020!

Also, as massive layoffs took place due across the United States due to the lock-down, more and more Black people looked for alternative ways to earn, which led to many joining the TAG TEAM Marketing Opportunity. New leaders emerged and TAG TEAM Marketing grew at an amazing rate during 2020.


2021

2021 was a year deeply affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Different U.S. states and countries around the world all had various degrees of restrictions on everyday life and travel. As a result, TAG TEAM Marketing held no in-person events the entire year. Instead, TAG TEAM Marketing delivered hundreds of virtual events (via conference call and video) to Buy Black Movement members all over the world.
