Great recommendations.Terrible filing system.

Good word of mouth is everywhere: texts, group chats, DMs, a chat on the sidewalk. It's helpful in the moment, then it's gone. Next time you need someone, you're asking the same question again.

Anyone know a good electrician?
We used West Coast Electric!
DM me, I'll send their info.
I'll ask Bill for the number!
What was that electrician's name again?
