Get Involved in 2018 with the MEA Member Drive

With the holiday season behind us, MEA is kicking off the New Year with a Member Drive for 2018! We are asking all members to get involved in keeping their organization and the electrical industry strong and relevant. There has never been a better time to stay connected and bring in a fellow contractor or electrician into the MEA community.

All MEA members are eligible to bring in new members for the drive. All member categories qualify for points towards the Member Drive and are based on new member’s annual dues dollar amount. Each dollar of member dues brought in puts you in the running for the grand prize; a weekend getaway with dinner for two and a night’s stay in a Downtown Minneapolis hotel (location TBD)! Additional prizes will be determined with the help of the Product Service Committee and published throughout the year.  All points earned for sponsoring members will also be published in the MEA Gold Club Standings.

If there is a new contractor in your area, stop by their shop or pick up the phone to reach out to them. While it only takes a minute, it is most beneficial for someone new to hear directly from another contractor or industry professional the importance of MEA and the benefit you receive by being a member. Whether it’s Gov’t Action, Safety, Compliance, Education or Networking, there is something here for everyone in the electrical industry at MEA.

Member Applications can be found on the website under “Join Now” from the Membership dropdown menu. So that Member Drive and Gold Club points can be awarded accurately, be sure to tell any prospective members you are working with to list you as the sponsor on their member application. During the onboarding process, the MEA staff will also make sure to ask if the new member was referred by another MEA member. Not sure if someone is a member already? Simply look them up from the Contractor or Product Service Directory on the website.

We appreciate all of your help and support in ensuring that our organization stays strong and relevant and look forward to hearing more from you all in 2018.
