Better Membership Communication Possible After Upgrade

The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 567 recently replaced their old, outdated website with a newly redesigned website, with the help of LaborTools powered by BMA Media Group.

The new IBEW Local 567 website now provides members a multitude of reasons to frequently visit the site - from important updates and information to the ability to pay dues. The changes will make this Maine Local stronger.

The new website includes several new features.

For instance, the interactive homepage includes updated, pertinent news provided by Local 567 leaders, easy shortcuts to frequently used pages, links to social media, a calendar and more.

The new website also has information that is accessible and targeted for the public.

Some parts of this website redesign included:

  • Color scheme
  • Style guide
  • Site map
  • Mobile optimization
  • Search engine optimization

New tool for union recruitment

The updated site also provided Local 567 with a new tool to recruit new members, both potential apprentices and experienced non-union electricians. New pages with information about the benefits of joining Local 567 and how to apply were easy to find with the valuable information potential members need to know.

The site also devoted space highlighting the benefits of becoming a signatory contractor to help with union organizing efforts geared to grow market share. For current contractors, the website includes all the necessary contact information, as well as content promoting the quality work completed by its members employed by Maine’s best electrical contractors.
