Energy

Buyer wants to know the payback period. Your site shows a 20-field form. They close the tab

Energy equipment buyers — homeowners, facility managers — research for weeks before contacting anyone. They want one thing before committing: "What will it cost and when will it pay back?" Companies that answer that question online capture the lead. Everyone else gets a callback that never comes.

Stop losing buyers who were ready to buy — just not ready to fill out a form.

Wrong sizing promised. Subsidy application failed. "They oversold me" — that review stays

Two ways to lose the sale: be too slow to answer, or be too fast to promise the wrong system

Sound familiar?

Homeowner lands on your site. Researched for weeks — comparison sites, three competitors open in tabs. They want one thing: "What will it cost and when will it pay back?" They're not ready for a site visit. They want a number first.

You give them a 20-field form or "we'll call you back." They close the tab. The competitor's site has a 5-minute configurator. They fill it in, get a proposal, book a call — not with you.

And when the pressure is on and a sales rep quotes fast without proper qualification — wrong system size. Wrong compliance assumption. Client's subsidy application fails. Warranty callback six months later.

"They oversold me." That review doesn't go away. And neither does the pattern: rushed quotes to win speed, wrong specs to close fast, reputation damage that compounds.

The bottleneck in numbers

Most energy leads never become proposals. Out of 500 monthly "want a quote" inquiries:

500MONTHLY "WANT A QUOTE" INQUIRIES
65FILLED FORM OR CALLED
435 BOUNCED — FORM TOO LONG (87%)
22AWAITING PROPOSAL
43 CALLED COMPETITOR — FASTER RESPONSE
7PROPOSALS SENT
15 STILL WAITING

MOST LOST BEFORE PROPOSAL — FORM TOO LONG OR COMPETITOR FASTER

FAQ

The configurator produces a qualified pre-proposal: system size range, ROI estimate, payback period — based on consumption, roof area, and region. It's accurate enough to start the conversation and win the lead. The site visit refines the final design. You stop losing leads to competitors who give a number first; the site visit closes the deal.
You load your compliance rules into the configurator: net metering policies, feed-in tariff eligibility, grid connection requirements by region. The configurator checks these during qualification and flags any issues before the proposal goes out.
Yes, if you offer both. Client describes their situation; configurator qualifies for the relevant system (or combination). You define what you offer and the configurator stays within your catalog.
The configurator asks for the best available data (last 12 months' bills, estimated monthly kWh, or annual spend). It produces a range rather than a single number when data is uncertain, and flags that the site visit will refine the estimate. Honest output builds more trust than a precise number that turns out to be wrong.
No. Engineering design tools handle detailed system layout — they come in after the lead is qualified. The configurator handles first-touch qualification and pre-proposal, before the buyer commits to a site visit. Two different stages, two different tools.
Yes. That's the primary use case. Visitor lands on your site, uses the configurator, gets a proposal. You capture a qualified lead with consumption data, system size, and contact details — without a discovery call.
Via API or embedded widget. Lead data (consumption, system size, contact details, proposal output) is pushed to your CRM automatically. Integration options and technical specs are covered on the demo call.
