About the Company

Sugar Hollow Solar is a mission-driven regional solar company.

They operate at the frontlines of the energy transition, where:

  • Homeowners make real decisions
  • Adoption actually happens
  • Climate action becomes tangible

900+ installations later, they are not theorizing change.

They are installing it.

What This Role Really Is

This is not engineering.
This is not policy.

This is conversion.

You are the bridge between: Curiosity → Commitment

Or more bluntly:

If you don’t close deals, solar doesn’t get built.

What You’ll Do

Consultative Sales

Guide homeowners through:

  • Energy needs
  • Solar options
  • Financial decisions

Education

Break down:

  • Solar technology
  • Incentives
  • ROI and savings

Into language anyone can understand

Lead Generation

You won’t just wait for customers.

You’ll:

  • Build referrals
  • Engage community
  • Use social channels

Closing Deals

Drive contracts from: First conversation → Signed agreement

Customer Experience

Build trust and transparency throughout

What You Need

Core Requirements

2+ years in:

  • Sales
  • Solar
  • Home improvement
  • Energy sector

Key Skills

Strong communication
Relationship building
Objection handling
Time management

Bonus Edge

Understanding of:

  • Solar systems
  • Financing models
  • Residential energy

Reality Check

This role is:

Target-driven
People-heavy
Performance-based

You will:

  • Knock on doors metaphorically and sometimes literally
  • Hear “no” more than “yes”
  • Earn based on results, not effort

Compensation Insight

Low base salary
High upside potential

Translation:

You eat what you close.

Why This Role Matters

This is where climate ambition meets reality.

Policies don’t install panels.
Reports don’t install panels.

People do.

And people need: Trust
Clarity
Confidence

That’s your job.
