  • Mastering Virtual Sales - Peter Roth

    Mastering Virtual Sales - Peter Roth
    Aug 8 2023
    Solar professionals face challenges in generating leads, but innovative solutions like virtual solar appointments can help overcome these obstacles. In a podcast conversation between Jacob Jones and Peter Roth, CEO of SolarWise, they discuss the unique nature of the solar industry and the importance of understanding a home's overall energy efficiency. Peter's background in HVAC gives him a differentiation in the market. They emphasize the need for systems and standard operating procedures for long-term success, as well as the power of scripts in sales. They also discuss the significance of lead generation and automation, as well as the importance of tools and systems in maximizing success. Lastly, they introduce the concept of "Finding Green Lights" and taking action on favorable opportunities.Episode Outline:(00:00:01) The Need for Virtual Solar Appointments(00:06:06) Challenges of Virtual Solar Sales(00:11:41) The Importance of Systems(00:16:54) The Importance of Having a Script(00:22:43) The Importance of Scripting(00:28:01) The Power of Neuroemotional Persuasion(00:33:54) The Importance of Lead Generation and Automation(00:39:07) The Importance of Tools and Systems in Lead Generation(00:44:24) Finding Green LightsQuotes:(00:03:24) I saw right away that there was this huge hole in space and that there's thousands of hungry solar pros out there who need to put food on the table and have no idea how to do it.(00:08:47) Find a house for me that has solar on it. I can go rip all the panels off the house, and they wouldn't even know they're missing. They would just switch right back over to the grid. And unless they hid up there and looked at them, they would have no idea they were even gone.(00:12:38) Systems are what sets you free. If you want your time back, you better systemize the heck out of something.(00:21:35) That is your operations guy. That is your key to success. Or your whole business is the words that come out of your goddamn mouth. Write that shit down.(00:26:13) You can't get good. What do you think golfers do every day? They look at videos of themselves. That's a script. That's the same thing as a script.(00:31:11) The better you start to understand how people are persuaded, the sooner you will find great success in every aspect of your life, not just your business life. It'll make you a better communicator, it'll make you a better husband, it'll make you a better father and mother. It'll just make you a better person all around.(00:36:48) The big problem that I found that I was coming up the ladder in this industry was that I saw that all the legion companies that I was working with, they would all get you leads. And most of them were honest and most of them there was nothing wrong with the leads. The problem was that people were missing all the other components.(00:43:27) Everything that you need to know is already free on YouTube. Just go get it and just go get it. It's out there waiting for you, man.(00:44:26) Keep finding those green lights.Social Post:🚦🎙️ Introducing Green Light Theory Podcast! 🌱🎧👀 Tired of hustling without a plan?

  • Energize Your Business - William Geist

    Energize Your Business - William Geist
    Aug 1 2023
    Starting a business in the solar industry can be a challenging endeavor. With the right resources and leadership in place, however, it can be a successful venture. In this podcast episode, Jacob Jones and William Geist discuss the process of transitioning from one leader to another and how to remain competitive in a down market. They also explain the importance of focusing on sales when launching a business and introduce Inversify, a platform created by Jacob Jones to standardize the solar sales process. Furthermore, they explore EPC relationships and how to make the most of the solar industry. To gain further insight into these topics, interested parties can join Solar Business Growth on August 23rd in Dallas, which will provide training on energy efficiency and more.Episode Outline:(00:00:01) Reducing Energy Costs(00:06:23) Leadership Transition(00:11:58) Diversifying in a Down Market(00:17:50) Standardizing Solar Sales(00:23:47) EPC Relationships(00:29:38) Focus on Sales(00:35:27) Solar Business GrowthQuotes:(00:01:51) We're talking hundreds of dollars a year, maybe $400, $600 a year in savings per home, depending on where they are geographically in their systems and things like that.(00:09:28) But I've gotten to the point not long ago, where it's just not possible anymore. And if the company is going to continue growing and I'm going to keep providing the opportunity and the value that I do, then I'm going to have to start building a team.(00:17:25) I think there's two important things. One is to diversify and make sure that you're going about things in a more holistic manner. For example, I tell my solar partners, you've got the solar, have the efficiency, have a few other things that you're really into. Not that you're just throwing sort of into the deal at random, but things that you're really focused on, because when(00:23:31) So I'm trying to empower these guys to be able to do that. And then the other side of it is I'm going to work on Inversify to sort of standardize the solar sale process and make it transparent such that if I'm on the EPC side.(00:28:52) Don't just sell them solar and then we never talk to them again. This is a consumer. We can sell them all kinds of cool stuff over time and so we're going to have a program that sort of does that. And so now solar becomes a residual income opportunity.(00:34:46) Focus on sales. And while it seems so simple, one of the things that I see entrepreneurs make the mistakes all the time is they are blinded by all the fancy lights, right? That, hey, I could spend my money on this, I could get this, I could get this. And all those things probably do have great value, but their problem is they try to do them all on the front end and then suffer because of it.(00:38:44) Take that time to invest in the people around you. It's the best thing that you can do.Social Post:Are you looking for ways to save money and energy? Look no further!
