Commercial solar EPC companies · Email marketing

Write the email that a finance head forwards to the owner.

Email marketing for a commercial solar EPC company is the set of one-to-one and list emails that carry a buyer from a survey enquiry to a proposal decision and later to a second roof. GullySales sets up consent, the proposal and follow-up emails, and a short note to plants you have already installed.

What email marketing means

Email marketing is sending planned messages to a list of past and prospective customers who have agreed to hear from you. It suits offers, updates and staying in touch with someone who is not ready to buy yet. GullySales writes and schedules these emails and tracks who opens, clicks and enquires.

For commercial solar EPC companies

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “The reader is a forwarder”

    A plant head receives your email, then sends it to the owner, the finance head and sometimes the landlord. If it does not read clearly without you, the decision stops there.

  • “A proposal cycle has long gaps”

    Between survey and decision there are board meetings and budget approvals. Email that reads as a nudge is ignored. Email that answers the last question raised keeps the file alive.

  • “Past customers are the quiet list”

    A plant you installed has a second roof, a sister unit and a maintenance renewal. Many EPC companies never write to them, so they hear about a rival from a neighbour.

What we do

What we deliver for commercial solar EPC companies.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. Consent and list set-up

    A record of who agreed to hear from you, from which source, with the date, and an unsubscribe line in every email.

    Result: The list contains people who said yes.

  2. A proposal email that travels

    A cover email and a single-page summary on the owner's own bill, readable without a call, with the questions the finance head asks answered.

    Result: The owner receives the case in the form he forwards.

  3. Follow-up emails for the usual holds

    Short emails for waiting on the board, comparing three quotes, landlord permission and the next budget year, each tied to a reason and a date.

    Result: A quiet file hears from you with something useful.

  4. A note to installed customers

    A plain email on performance from their own monitoring, cleaning and inspection, and room for a second roof or a sister unit.

    Result: Past customers hear from you for a reason.

  5. Segments by building type and stage

    Lists split by factory, warehouse and campus and by enquiry, proposal and installed stage.

    Result: Each reader gets email that fits his roof and his stage.

  6. Replies that reach a person

    A reply address and a rule on who answers, so an email never leads to a mailbox nobody reads.

    Result: A buyer's reply gets an answer from someone who knows the file.

How the result is measured

  • Open rate
  • Click rate
  • Enquiries from email

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What must be in place first

What a commercial solar EPC company needs in place before it emails a plant head, a finance head or a trustee.

Consent and the source of every address
Record where each address came from: a form, a survey, a card at an association meet. Write to people who asked or met you. Data protection law applies to personal data, so check with your lawyer.
A sender the company can stand behind
Send from a named person on the company domain, with the registered name, GST number and address in the signature. Industrial buyers and their banks look for it before they reply.
A proposal summary that stands alone
A one-page summary with the building, the system, the saving on the owner's bill, the equipment, the warranty and who handles approvals, so the email can be forwarded without a call.
Segments by building and stage
Keep factory, warehouse, campus and commercial buyers apart, and keep open proposals apart from installed customers. A maintenance note sent to a buyer still comparing quotes confuses him.
A way out and a way to reply
An unsubscribe line in every email, and a reply address read by the engineer who knows the file. Remove those who ask, the same day, from every list.
Installed plants kept on their own list
Hold customers on a separate list with the plant, the date commissioned and the next service. A maintenance note is a service message, not a sales email, and should read as one.

Who it is for

This is written for these commercial solar EPC companies.

  • Rooftop EPC specialists for factories and industrial units
  • Warehouse, cold storage and logistics park rooftop installers
  • Campus installers for schools, colleges and hospitals
  • Pay-per-unit (OPEX) rooftop developers
  • Open access and group captive solar developers
  • Ground-mount and solar carport contractors
  • Government and public sector tender EPC companies
  • Operations and maintenance firms adding new installations

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is reply time, a follow-up sequence, the page buyers land on or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the email marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Understand your list

    We review who is on the list, how they got there, and how long it has been since they last heard from you.

  2. 2

    Audit past sends

    We check open and click rates from past emails to see what has and has not worked.

  3. 3

    Segment and plan

    The list is split into meaningful groups and a sending calendar is agreed.

  4. 4

    Implement content and automation

    Emails are written, scheduled and, where useful, set to trigger automatically based on behaviour.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track performance and adjust subject lines, timing and content based on what the list responds to.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Can we buy a list of factory owners and email them?
Do not. A bought list brings complaints, damages your domain and breaks the consent your enquiries rely on. Build a researched list of named plants, write to them one at a time from a real person, and give a clear way to stop.
Is a newsletter any use for us?
Seldom as a general newsletter. A short note to installed customers and a sequence for open proposals do the work. Add a newsletter only when you have something new each time, such as a commissioned plant or a change in the state's rules.
Why do our proposals land in spam?
Often it is the sender set-up on the domain, a large attachment or a free mail address. Send from your company domain with the technical records set, keep the file small and put the summary in the body of the mail.
Should the email carry the saving figure?
Yes, in rupees on the owner's own bill, with the basis stated in the same email. A figure without its working invites doubt. Do not quote a general number for all buyers, and do not round up.
Should we publish a rate per kWp on our website?
Publish the basis, not a bare rate. Say what is inside it: modules, inverters, structure, cabling, approvals and monitoring, and what is outside it. A buyer will compare numbers, so a rate without the scope invites a lower quote that leaves half the work out.
Do factory owners search online, or does everything come through consultants?
Both. Consultants and associations bring many introductions, but the plant head or the owner then searches your name, your projects and your reviews before a survey is agreed. If that search finds nothing, a good introduction goes cold.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
