Cody Wilson just got paid $100 for making a video about the IBEW. 💵⚡

That’s right, we PAY our members to help spread the word. Cody made a video talking about what it means to be union, got great engagement, and walked out of last night’s meeting with a check in his hand.

This is our Member Led Social Media Initiative and we want MORE of you involved.

You don’t have to be a filmmaker. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be real. Talk about your pay. Talk about your benefits. Talk about why you chose the union. That’s it.

Every worker in the electrical industry deserves to know what we have. Help us tell them and get paid to do it. 💪🔵

Call the hall today and find out how you can get your name on the next check. 📞👇

⚡ Every light in this town has a story. ⚡

The school your kids sit in. The hospital that took care of your family. The office buildings, the restaurants, the stadium. All of it wired. All of it powered. All of it built by somebody.

That somebody? Had a union card. 🔧

IBEW Local 540 has been putting Stark County to work since 1915. The skyline you drive past every day — we’re in the walls. We’re in the ceiling. We’re behind every switch, every panel, every light that comes on when you flip it.

We built this town. We keep it running. And we’re not done. 💪

If you’re an electrician who isn’t getting paid what this work is worth — let’s talk.
