TikTok's turning my Klein tools reels into $2k service calls

Been posting quick clips of running 14/2 romex for subpanel jobs on TikTok, and damn if it hasn't landed me three EV charger installs this month at $2k a pop. Electrician U's got some solid tips on editing that I followed, makes the sparks look pro without the BS. If you're wiring up resi panels, film that first pull - homeowners eat it up and call you next time their breakers trip.
