Digital communication channel in multi-level sales

Cost-effectively open up the digital communication channel to installation partners and thus increase your sales success

Your installation partners under constant pressure

Are you a manufacturer, supplier or wholesaler of products in the photovoltaic sector?

Your challenges

Then you certainly know the current challenges in the PV market

Your installation partners are flooded with inquiries

Your installation partners are flooded with inquiries due to the high demand at present. However, their consulting process is often not set up in a customer-friendly and efficient enough manner to handle this flood.

Prices and availability quickly become outdated

Fluctuating prices, availability or even outdated product data sheets lead to many discussions between installation partners and your office staff. Your installation partners need to continuously check the latest prices, availabilities and delivery times in your web shop and transfer these to their quoting tool. This leads to a high level of coordination for you and your installation partners.

High consulting effort in the office

Some installation partners relatively often require your assistance in designing the mounting system or dimensioning inverters or battery storage systems. This leads to a high level of effort in the office.

Too little customer friendliness in end-customer consulting

The customer-friendliness of the end-customer consulting for complex products by your installation partners does not meet your expectations, and the advantages of your products are not sufficiently emphasized. You create marketing materials with a lot of effort, but these do not reach the end customers through your installation partners or are outdated once they do. As a result, both you and the installation partners lose orders.

Partner program communication

You generate leads as part of your partner program and pass them on to your installation partners. After that, you are flying blind and, without actively asking, you no longer know whether your installation partner has really installed your products. In the worst case scenario, the end customers advised by your brand will turn to you and ask why they haven't heard from you, and your brand's image will suffer.

FAQ

Questions about the digital communication channel and your installation partners

Frequently asked questions about the digital communication channel

1What software do my installation partners need to use the digital communication channel?
The most important functions of the digital communication channel to your installation partners are available if your installation partners have email and web browser. However, the life of your installation partners is simplified significantly if they also use the Eturnity quoting and planning software. At the same time, this enables further digitization, which also brings benefits to you. Eturnity therefore offers you and your installation partners cost-effective partner licenses within the digital communication channel, which you can make available to the installation partners, e.g. through your installation partner program.
2Can the digital communication channel be adapted to our CI/CD?
Of course! As with all Eturnity AG solutions, the digital communication channel can be customized to fit your CI/CD exactly.
3How much does the digital communication channel cost?
Eturnity's digital communication channel is a very cost-effective solution that can be set up very quickly. Please arrange individual consulting with us for an individual cost estimate.
4For which markets is the digital communication channel available?
Eturnity solutions are already available for almost all major markets in Europe (total 12 countries). Additional markets can also be unlocked with reasonable effort. Contact us regarding availability of specific markets.
5Can I limit the components available to installation partners within the digital communication channel?
Yes, it is possible! At the same time, you also have the advantage that the digital communication channel can, if you wish, be extended to installation partners who already use a stand-alone Eturnity solution. This increases your range.
6Can Eturnity's digital communication channel be used by installation partners as a price comparison service?
No, that is not possible. The digital communication channel is intended to digitalize the processes between you and your installation partners. In the process, price information is also transmitted and transferred directly into the quoting and planning software of the installation partner. However, a price comparison is not made any easier than when the installation partner obtains information from webshops of different suppliers.
