Bidding against the same few names.
Sales managers
Setting price floors and commission plans.
Growing companies
Sizing up a new county before they move in.
BEHIND EVERY NUMBER
Where a job reports it, you see the detail you would need to quote it yourself: system size and module count, what the work was valued at, roof or ground, whether batteries went in, and where and when it happened.
WHY IT WORKS
Not a lead list. A scoreboard.
Lead lists tell you who might buy. This tells you who is winning, where, and at what price, so every bid you write starts from the real number.

THE QUESTIONS IT ANSWERS
THE PROBLEM
You are bidding against people you cannot see.
You guess at market share by counting yard signs, and you cut your price because you think you have to. There is a better number to start from.

SELLING BLIND
You hear their price after you lost the job.
A homeowner tells you what a competitor quoted, and by then the contract is signed. You never see the jobs you were never asked to bid.

QUESTIONS
Before you reach out.
What is Solar Sniping?
A running read on every solar competitor in your service area: who is installing, how many systems, how big, and at what price per watt, fresh each week and going back years.
How is this different from a solar lead list?
A lead list gives you homeowners who might buy. Solar Sniping shows what your competitors are actually doing, so you can price, target and sell against them.
Does every job show a price?
No. Not every job reports a value. System size and job value appear wherever a job carries them, and each average is worked out from the jobs that do.
What is in the free market snapshot?
Last quarter’s active installers in your area, with job counts and system sizes. No charge and no obligation.
Which areas does Solar Sniping cover?
We open territory by territory. Tell us your service area and we will tell you what we have there within two business days.
How much does Solar Sniping cost?
It depends on the service area you want to watch. The snapshot is free, and we quote you once you have seen it.
We sell equipment to installers. Is this for us?
Distributors get solar as a trade on the weekly supplier sheet, with the installers buying from a competing supplier flagged. Pick Suppliers at the top of this page.
