    The Problem

    Why Solar Companies Lose 40% of Their Deals

    Solar has one of the longest, most complex sales cycles in any industry. Most CRMs weren't built for 6-month nurture sequences, post-sale engagement, or the unique challenges of residential solar sales.

    Your 60-90 Day Sales Cycle Is Killing Deals

    Solar isn't an impulse buy. The average decision time is 3-6 months. If your follow-up stops after week two (like most companies), you're handing warm leads to competitors who stay in touch. That lead you paid $200+ for just went cold.

    Proposals Disappear Into the Void

    You spent an hour on a site visit, built a custom proposal in Aurora, sent it over... and heard nothing. That proposal is sitting in their spam folder while they're getting retargeted by every solar company on Facebook. No follow-up system = no closed deal.

    Financing Conversations Fall Through the Cracks

    Half your lost deals die at financing. The customer was interested, but the loan discussion got complicated, they said 'let me think about it,' and you never recovered them. Without automated financing nurture, these deals evaporate.

    Signed Contracts Are Canceling

    With 60-90 day installation timelines and zero communication after signing, buyer's remorse sets in. Competitors knock on doors with 'better deals.' Industry average cancellation rate is 20-30%. That's hundreds of thousands in lost revenue.

    The solar companies winning right now aren't the cheapest.

    They're the ones who follow up fastest and longest.
