What is the role of CRM in Solar Energy Sectors anyways?

Solar panel industry is getting increasingly competitive with too many players competing for business. Naturally obtaining organic business leads is getting difficult. This is why we need to give our energy in the right place for getting maximum results. Getting the competitive edge obviously requires better time management and managing several cost factors involved in marketing the
product.

And now specifically moving towards the arena of solar business development how does a CRM or even the whole concept of IT fit in into it?
The role of IT in the field of solar energy is no doubt, a very important one. While the science of the subject tells us how important every renewable source of energy is, it is the math side of things that tell us how to make a business model out of the concept.

It is the Information Technology, though, that gives us a hint on how to find the potential customers for this potent product and how to make it reach them. Information Technology is the backbone of any business, more so for a venture in the field of any renewable energy sector today.

The incredible monitoring and control IT systems today point out errors, integrate various data, do calculations, generate reports, improve the overall performance ratio, and whatnot. Not just to keep the whole system together, but also to maintain its safety and security is a feature that IT deals with.
The power of IT, thus, lies in bringing together science, math, and every other element together through the design and implementation of sophisticated software systems, and to finally run this whole machine in a well-oiled manner.

Even in the core field of IT, why is a Customer Relationship Management tool thought to be indispensable?

The answer I think is obvious – is there any other way to build a strong business relationship with existing clients and the potential leads, as seamlessly as you can with CRM? No, there isn’t.
Usually companies tend to search the market and find the ready made solution for their business. Now we all know that these solutions boil down to providing services that can barely fit the needs of every Solar company so the results of using such services would be nowhere near perfect and effective.

So there is a need to cancel the out-of-box solutions option right at the onset. So Solar companies need a bespoke solution that would consider our business process and company flow perfectly. The only issue is to find a reliable IT partner who will transform your company needs and process into a robust and efficient system that would boost your business.

And of course, even as you see things from the utility point of view that is in terms of money a business would need an IT system at its core to smartly push it in the right direction.
Therefore anyone who owns a business, however small or big would know that the growth of a venture is only as good as one can maintain healthy relationships with each and every client of theirs.
CRM, therefore, is the absolute key to the success of a business – any business – and the core element of any business model.

How really does the concept of your Solar CRM Tool work?

As far as the role of any CRM goes, it is to make the overall process of business management an easy and seamless one. And the only way to get it done is by having control over every running subsystem in a business and makes them all run in a well-coordinated manner.
Starting with providing a business with strong project management system development, no time ever gets wasted in manually scheduling tasks or tracking a project’s progress, or keeping a track of project timeline, and such.

Then the installation module is to provide for a direct link of communication between the installation manager, the project manager, and everyone else involved to curb any communication problems right at the root.

With stock management, also the well-designed and developed CRM should work hand-in-hand with the stock manager to never worry about mishandling any product delivery or going out-of-stock without any prior notification. Well equipped CRMs should give sales support to the client businesses by aiding in lead generation and designing elaborate sales reports.

Lead generation is important, but without a proper classification, one risks losing perspective on how large or small would the sales funnel be getting. In other words, a proper lead classification is necessary to know exactly how many cold leads, hot leads, and potentially leads a business has, in addition to all the new or confirmed leads a business can count on.

Similarly, keeping a track of how many people were contacted, how many of them responded, and how effective was the sales strategy to convert these contacts into confirmed leads, is what sales report is about.

It is owing to a well-formed report, that a solar company would be able to track their overall progress, pinpoint exactly where they could have gone wrong, and effectively remedy the situation to boost further performance.

Your final word is?

There are so many aspects to running a business – any business – but the stakes get very high when your product is renewable energy.

The task is mammoth, the results would be monumental, and it would do no good for the powerful IT sector to not give its full support to this raging and rousing concept.

The idea of making this renewable source of energy reach the billion people in the country alone and billions more across the globe is such a mighty one, that the least it deserves is a robust CRM at its very spine.
