How Smart Solar Installers Manage Leads — The CRM Built for the Philippine Solar Market
The average solar installer in the Philippines loses 40-60% of their leads simply because of poor follow-up. A homeowner sends an inquiry on Monday. The installer responds Friday. By then, two competitors have already visited the site.
Speed-to-lead wins solar deals. Here's how to manage it properly.
The Lead Lifecycle in Solar Sales
Stage | Status | Action Needed | Typical Window |
|---|---|---|---|
Lead received | New | Call within 2 hours | Day 0 |
Initial contact made | Contacted | Schedule site visit | Day 1-2 |
Site visit done | Quoted | Send formal proposal within 24 hrs | Day 3-5 |
Proposal accepted | Converted | Collect downpayment, schedule install | Day 5-14 |
Proposal rejected | Lost | Note reason, follow up in 90 days | Anytime |
The My Leads Dashboard — What It Shows
The My Leads tab in the SolarEnergyPH Installer Dashboard is a full CRM designed for solar businesses:
Lead stats at a glance — Total leads, New, Contacted, Converted counts
Leads remaining — Your current balance and plan
Province coverage display — Which provinces you're currently matched to
Filterable lead table — Filter by status (New/Contacted/Converted/Lost), search by name or city
Per-lead details — Client name, email, phone, city, system type requested, property type, monthly bill, message
Status update — Change lead status directly from the table as you progress the sale
The 2-Hour Rule That Doubles Conversion
Research from solar markets in the US shows contacting a lead within 2 hours makes you 7x more likely to qualify that lead than if you call after 24 hours. Philippine solar buyers are no different — they submit the same inquiry to multiple installers simultaneously.
The SolarEnergyPH system sends you an instant email notification the moment a new lead is matched to you. Your competitive advantage is responding first, with a professional proposal.
Province-Based Lead Matching — How It Works
When a homeowner submits an inquiry, the system:
Identifies their province from their city selection
Searches for installers who cover that province
If match found — assigns lead and notifies installer immediately
If no exact province match — checks same region installers
If still no match — assigns to Elite (Nationwide) installers
The more provinces you cover in your plan, the more leads you're eligible to receive. During the current free promo period (until July 14, 2026), all installers get unlimited leads across any province they select.
