We've listened, and we've delivered

Our members always tell us that they are looking for ways to make their business more efficient, save precious time and costs, and become more profitable.

As Australia’s premier electrical industry association, we stick to what we do best — providing top-of-range advice and advocating on your behalf. So when we were looking at expanding our membership offering, we called on experts in the field so that we could provide you with a well-rounded member experience. We searched and reviewed many providers and have decided to partner with the best of the best. We looked for those who could deliver a nationwide service, had good standing and a stellar reputation within their industries, had a solid and proactive customer service philosophy, and would provide ease of access, and the very best deals for our members. The result is an outstanding new membership offering for both existing and new members.

There are five unique elements to the innovative offering. The first, our partnership with Tradify. Under the fresh membership model, we’re giving every existing and new member a single user licence for six months. Tradify is the job management software that makes quoting, scheduling and invoicing easy and seamlessly integrates with existing accounting software. The software will help you get your nights back, freeing you from after-hours work and allowing you to concentrate on your number one priority — customers!

As an electrical contractor, it can be challenging to keep across the accounting side of your business. That’s why we’re partnering with William Buck, a leading firm of chartered accountants with offices across ANZ, to take the pressure off your shoulders. Under this partnership arrangement, you’ll receive two months’ free access to the accounting package of your choice through premier cloud-based accounting software, Xero.

And for the first time, we’re offering a lite version of our world-class safety system. ME Safety Express is an introduction version of our current tested and trusted management system. We’re pleased that since the introduction of ME Safety, we’ve had many members tell us how the system has taken their business’s safety and management to the next level. Under the lite version, users will have access to functionality never seen before, in one comprehensive package. The system makes use of cloud-based accounting software, meaning you can use ME Safety Express while you’re on the road — you can track, report and protect individual employees with a range of different tools.

Our new membership offering also includes a free Master Electricians Training (MET) course. The MET courses have been developed to meet the needs of busy electrical contracting businesses, and this great offer includes an online asbestos awareness course.

And to top it all off, the membership package includes an outstanding offer from SAI Global that’ll help you, as an electrical contractor, manage risk, achieve compliance and drive business improvement. All members will receive 14 important standards, for free, that seamlessly embed in the ME Safety system.

At Master Electricians, we understand that there are so many different areas that steal your attention — from day-to-day customer service, to marketing and social media, to business development, to organising staff and assigning jobs, to handling the accounting side of business and many more. But you shouldn’t have to navigate the ins and outs of business alone. As a valued Master Electricians member, you have access to direct advice and advocacy on your behalf, as well as the support of our partner organisations. Our new member inclusions will enable you to take day-to-day business practice to the next level, by employing cutting-edge tools and cloud-based technology to improve processes and systems and free up your precious time to focus on the people that are at the centre of your business activity — your customers!
