How to Leverage the Benefits of Solar in Your Marketing

Today’s consumers are more advertising- and marketing-avoidant than any prior generation. This is understandable, as people are almost continually bombarded with messaging that is trying to influence their every decision. Because of this, people are also more in tune to when they are being pitched something than in previous times. They are also more challenging to reach, thanks to omni-channel and ad avoidant behavior.

These days, what cuts through all of the noise and actually reaches consumers is authenticity.

The good news is that we have many terrific benefits at our disposal – benefits that are completely authentic in nature. The trick is tailoring your messaging so that the right incentives to go solar (savings or energy independence, going green or stable long-term energy) are pitched to the correct audiences.

Tailoring your messaging to the audience you are attempting to reach, no matter the marketing vehicle (advertising, social media, content) is key to engaging the consumer where they live.

The consumer is out there. They are interested in solar for a variety of reasons. Some or all of the top ten benefits of going solar will appeal to nearly every homeowner in the US.

You just need to tailor your messaging so that you are leveraging the correct incentives with the correct audience.
