What Solar Installers Say

"We were burning $300+ per lead buying from aggregators and closing maybe 8%. Call Center Doctors built us a team that dials into high-irradiance zip codes and books homeowners who actually qualify. Our CPA dropped to $650 and our close rate jumped to 22%. The ROI paid for the build-out in the first month."

Solar Call Center FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a solar call center different from a roofing call center?
Solar requires longer qualification scripts. Your reps need to verify roof age, shade coverage, utility provider, average electric bill, credit score range, and homeownership before booking. We also screen for ITC eligibility and net metering availability in the homeowner's utility territory. The dialer campaigns target high-irradiance zip codes rather than storm-hit neighborhoods.
What does the build-out include for solar?
Everything: enterprise dialer with local presence and DID rotation, solar-specific scripts and rebuttals, lead list sourcing filtered by irradiance zone and utility territory, CRM integration (Enerflo, Sunbase, GoHighLevel, Salesforce), bilingual rep recruiting and training in Mexico, dedicated call center manager, real-time dashboard, and ongoing QA with weekly reporting calls.
How do you source solar leads?
We pull homeowner data filtered by high solar irradiance zones (GHI 4.5+ kWh/m2/day), utility territories with favorable net metering, roof age under 15 years, and household income above $60K. We also run aged lead reactivation campaigns for installers who have old lists sitting in a CRM collecting dust.
What CPA should I expect for solar appointments?
After a 2-4 week ramp period, most solar clients land between $400-$900 per qualified appointment. With an average system size of 8-10 kW and a gross margin of $8,000-$15,000 per install, that puts you at a 10-20x return on your call center spend. The key is appointment quality and show rate, which is why we QA every single call.
Can your reps explain the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and net metering?
Yes. Our reps are trained on the 30% federal ITC, state-level incentives (SREC markets, state tax credits, rebate programs), and net metering policies by utility. They don't sell the system on the phone, but they can answer basic questions well enough to keep qualified homeowners engaged and booked.
Do you integrate with solar-specific CRMs?
We integrate with Enerflo, Sunbase, Aurora Solar, GoHighLevel, Salesforce, Zoho, HubSpot, and most platforms that accept API or Zapier connections. Appointments sync directly to your calendar and CRM with all qualification data attached.
How fast can my solar call center be operational?
7-14 days from kickoff to first dials. Week one is dialer setup, script writing, lead list sourcing, and CRM integration. Week two is rep training and test calls. By day 10-14, your team is live-dialing homeowners.
What if a rep underperforms?
We replace them. Every rep is tracked daily on dials, contacts, appointments set, and conversion rate. If someone drops below our benchmarks for two consecutive weeks after coaching, they get swapped out. You never pay for dead weight.

A Note From Our Founder

Solar is a long sales cycle. The install is worth $15,000-$40,000 but you burn through cash fast if your pipeline runs dry for even a week. I built this service because I watched solar companies hemorrhage money on shared leads from aggregators that five other installers also received.

Your own call center fixes that. Your reps. Your scripts. Your data. Homeowners who pick up the phone, hear your company name, and book a time for YOUR sales team to come out. Not a shared lead. An exclusive appointment.

We have done this 300+ times across roofing, solar, insurance, and a dozen other verticals. If you are serious about building a pipeline that you control, book a call. I will walk you through exactly how it works and what it costs. No contracts. No BS.
