Why Guidance?
Imagine knowing exactly what to do in your solar business. Imagine never making a mistake again.
Guidance stops mistakes like these:
- You’ve run out of stock
- You’ve got too much stock
- You’ve wondered if charging less would increase sales enough to raise profits
- You’ve wondered if you could be charging more, and wondered if doing so would harm conversion.
- You’ve wondered if you should be stepping on the gas or jamming on the brakes, and you can’t decide which
Guidance Instead gets you Flying like a Top Gun, with these instruments to guide you:
- The optimal margin to add, price to charge, and conversion rate to target that’ll maximise your profitability
- The optimal products-places-people-segments-sources to concentrate on for maximum sales
- How well you’re performing compared to everyone else
- What lays ahead, so you can navigate around it
- The optimal approach to your business trajectory
- Expert Training
- Sales Motivators
This Solar Business Elevation framework is useful. Consider it like a tripod, with Guidance, Differentiate, and Automate as three legs that work in conjunction.
Differentiate
If you don’t differentiate your business, then your gross profit on each sale will get swallowed up not leaving enough leftover to support your business goals.
Automate
If you don’t automate, your gross profit will be squandered within your time-consuming, tedious and error-prone internal operations; and you’ll always be stuck in first gear.
Guidance
If you don’t have guidance, the bottom-line profit you do make won’t last as you’ll be making sub-optimal decisions.
