The Role You'll guide homeowners through their solar journey from first conversation to switched-on system.

Support after the sale: Stay in touch with your customers and keep them happy long after the panels go up, because referrals matter. Hit your targets: Manage your own pipeline in our CRM and consistently meet or beat your sales goals. Know your market: Keep on top of local competitors, pricing, and the latest solar and battery technology so you can advise with confidence.
