Hire Electricians in About 10 Days
Once the marketing is working, people become the bottleneck. We run Facebook job ads for the exact role you need, then filter hard, so the only people who reach your phone are the ones who can do the work and are serious about the job.
Rewired and Honest Hank’s did not just need more calls, they needed capable people in trucks to run them. Once the work is coming in, hiring is the next thing that has to keep up.

What you need: a helper, a journeyman, someone who can sell. What you pay, how commission works, and what you will not compromise on.
Facebook is the best place to reach tradespeople who are not actively job hunting. We run a few different angles so the right kind of person puts their hand up.
We test for the skills you told us matter. Whether they fit your crew is your call, in person. We are not going to pretend we can judge that from here.
The application has several steps. It is not a personality quiz, it just quietly filters out everyone who cannot be bothered finishing it.
You tell us when you can take a quick call and when you can do a proper interview. We fill those slots with people who have already passed the screening.
You are normally talking to people by day three, and by day ten most owners have enough good candidates that they ask us to switch the ads off. Fussier roles take longer.
About $500 to set up, about $500 a month while it runs, plus roughly $30-50 a day of Facebook spend for around ten days. That is usually enough.
What You Do and What We Do When You Hire
You set the role and the standard. We run the ads and the screening so only people who look capable get through to you. You decide whether they fit your crew and whether you would trust them in someone’s house, because that is your company, not ours. The only thing we need from you is the times you can take those first calls.
One thing worth knowing: the ads talk about what a good tech can earn with you. Average pay messaging brings average applicants. If you are willing to pay well for someone excellent, we say so plainly in the ad, and it changes who applies.
What to Know Before You Hire Your Next Electrician

How long does it take to hire an electrician?
You are normally talking to people by day three. By day ten most owners have enough good candidates to switch the ads off. Fussier roles take longer.

No. We screen on skills so only capable people reach you. Whether they fit your crew and whether you would trust them in a customer’s house is your call.
Fill Your Trucks With Electricians You Trust
Phone ringing, trucks empty? Marketing without hiring is how owners burn out. Let’s sort the crew side too.
