Fill Solar Setter Calendars with Real Homeowners Who Have $150+ Electric Bills.
Stop buying shared leads from shady brokers. We build a proprietary solar acquisition engine that collects utility bills, calculates savings, and books qualified sit-downs directly on your reps' calendars.
Apehx builds and deploys Solar & Green Energy CRM, automation, and marketing systems for service businesses across the United States. One-time build fee, then optional monthly maintenance. You own the system forever.
"We were spending $6,000/month just in agency management fees on top of lead broker costs. Apehx set up our own in-house system in 7 days. Our cost per sit dropped by 45%."
What This Costs Solar & Green Energy Before Any System Exists
Shared solar leads go cold or get closed by a competitor within the hour — yet the contact rate hits 80% only if you call immediately and keep dialing through the first few hours. The first rep who actually reaches a real homeowner with a verified $150+ electric bill wins the sit. Everyone else burned the lead and the money.
The solar lead-broker and retainer model is a trap.
- Shared lead aggregators sell the same solar lead to 3–5 companies at $200–$300 each, then take the lead back the moment you stop paying. You never own your pipeline.
- Solar marketing agencies charge $3,000–$6,000 every month on top of your ad spend, with cost per close running $2,500–$4,000 from shared leads.
- You're paying $30–$150 per lead into a system you don't control, renting access to homeowners who are already hearing from your competitors.
Build it once. Own it forever.
- One-time build fee, then optional maintenance only — no agency retainer and no shared-lead broker markups.
- Your CRM, utility-bill intake funnels, rep calendar dispatch, and ad accounts live in accounts you own.
- Cancel maintenance anytime; nothing is taken away — the system and every exclusive lead is yours.
Everything We Build Into Your Solar & Green Energy System
Designed specifically around the buyer journey in your industry — not a copied template.
Utility Bill Upload & Pre-Screening
Homeowners snap a photo of their electric bill on their phone to verify monthly usage before scheduling a solar analysis. Exclusive leads convert at a 40–60% sit rate versus 25–40% for shared leads — verifying the bill first means your reps only drive to real homeowners who actually qualify.
Round-Robin Solar Rep Calendar Dispatch
Automatically assign qualified sits to your closest field reps or virtual setters based on territory and availability. No rep argues over leads, no sit falls through the cracks, and every confirmed appointment lands on a live calendar the moment the bill is verified.
2-Way SMS Confirmation & Address Verification
Verify roof ownership, credit score, and address via conversational SMS to ensure reps never show up to renters or shaded roofs. With a 30–40% industry no-show rate, locking in a confirmation number and soft commitment within 72 hours is what keeps reps from burning drive time on ghosts.
Instant Speed-to-Lead Auto-Response
Shared solar leads go cold or get closed by a competitor within the hour, and contact rates only hit 80% if you call immediately and keep dialing through the first few hours. Our system fires the instant a form is submitted — day or night — so you reach the homeowner before any of the 3–5 companies they were sold to.
Long-Term NEM & Rate-Hike Nurture
Automatically email and text homeowners whenever local utility rates increase or net metering incentives change. Utility rate hikes are the single strongest trigger for a solar purchase — this turns your unsold leads into a compounding asset that reactivates the moment the math shifts in your favor.
No-Show Deposit & Rebooking Engine
Cut the 30–40% solar no-show rate with confirmation numbers, soft commitments, and automated reminders timed at 72h, 24h, and 1h. When a sit still falls through, a two-touch SMS sequence rebooks the homeowner automatically — protecting the rep's calendar and your cost per sit.

Common Questions from Solar & Green Energy Owners
Can this integrate with Solo or Aurora Solar?
Yes, we can route customer details and utility bills directly into your proposal generation tools via automated webhooks.
Do we have to pay per lead?
No. You pay for your own direct ad spend on Google/Meta and own 100% of the leads — zero broker markups, zero shared leads. Shared solar leads cost $200–$300 each and are sold to 3–5 companies simultaneously; exclusive leads convert at a 40–60% sit rate versus 25–40% for shared leads. You own the difference.
How much does solar marketing cost without an agency retainer?
A typical solar marketing agency charges $3,000–$6,000 per month on top of your ad spend, with cost per close running $2,500–$4,000 from shared leads. Apehx charges a one-time build fee for the entire acquisition engine, then optional maintenance. You own the CRM, funnels, and ad accounts forever — no recurring retainer required.
How does the system handle the 30–40% solar no-show rate?
Every sit gets a confirmation number and soft commitment, plus automated reminders at 72 hours, 24 hours, and 1 hour before the appointment. When a sit still falls through, a two-touch SMS rebooking sequence recovers the homeowner automatically — protecting your reps' calendars and your cost per sit.
What happens if a rep leaves our team?
Because you own the system, you simply revoke their login and re-assign their pipeline to another rep with 2 clicks. No lead is ever lost and no territory goes uncovered.
Does the system verify the homeowner's electric bill before booking a sit?
Yes. Homeowners snap a photo of their electric bill on their phone to verify $150+ monthly usage before any rep drives out. This is why exclusive, bill-verified leads convert at 40–60% — your reps only sit down with homeowners who actually qualify.
How fast does the system respond to a new solar lead?
Instantly. Shared solar leads go cold or get closed by a competitor within the hour, and contact rates only hit 80% if you call immediately and keep dialing through the first few hours. Our system fires the moment a form is submitted — day or night — so you reach the homeowner before any of the 3–5 companies they were sold to.
How fast can you set this up for our solar company?
Most solar acquisition engines go live within 5 to 7 business days, including utility-bill intake, rep calendar dispatch, speed-to-lead response, NEM nurture, and live message testing with simulated homeowners.
