Poll: Are You Overpaying for Solar Customers?
The golden rule in solar marketing is to track you cost per sale.
Hello Solar Squad,
I need your help settling a debate.
Last week, three solar company owners told me completely different numbers for their cost per closed deal:
Company A: "$900 per sale"
Company B: "$3,200 per sale"
Company C: "Wait... per sale? I only track cost per lead"
All three were running similar ad budgets. All three were closing similar deal sizes.
So here's my question for you:
📊 POLL:
What's Your Marketing Cost Per Closed Deal?(Marketing spend only - not including sales salaries/commissions) Vote below: |
Why This Number Matters More Than You Think
Most solar companies obsess over:
Cost per lead ($30-$150)
Cost per appointment ($150-$500)
But the only number that actually determines profitability is cost per closed sale.
Here's why it varies so wildly:
Company at $5,000/sale:
Generic "get a quote" landing pages
Calling unknown numbers
No follow-up system
100 leads → 12 appointments → 4 shows → 2 sales
Company at $1,000/sale:
Offer-specific landing pages
Leads book directly into calendar
AI follow-up + retargeting
100 leads → 50 booked → 35 shows → 15 sales
Same ad spend. 7.5x more deals.
Do You Actually Know YOUR Number?
Most companies we audit think they're at $2,000/sale.
Then we calculate it properly and find they're at $4,500/sale.
The hidden costs they were missing:
Leads that never converted (but they paid for)
No-show appointments (wasted time)
Dead pipeline (no follow-up)
Wrong offer positioning (low conversion)
