How to run your solar & inverters business with TheCEOApp

TheCEOApp team ·

A solar installation is a quote, a site survey, equipment from stock and a handover, with the client often paying in stages.

TheCEOApp keeps the quote, the job and the stock together.

Quotations

Send a quotation for panels, batteries, the inverter and installation, in your logo and colours.

Each installation, step by step

Move each job through inspection, work done, and tested and handed over.

Equipment from stock

Inverters, batteries and panels sold on each job come off your stock.

Record every sale in seconds

Add what you sell once, for example 5kVA inverter, 200Ah battery and solar panel (450W), and services like solar installation, inverter repair and battery replacement. Suggestions for a solar & inverters come up as you type, so you don't start from a blank page.

Then record a sale by tapping the items, scanning a barcode or simply saying it out loud. The receipt goes to the client on WhatsApp with your logo, and part payments are kept against their name.

Keep stock the way you count it

Count stock by piece, unit, set, hour and visit. Start with the biggest unit you buy in, say how many smaller ones fit inside, set a price for each and sell in whichever unit the client wants. Stock goes down as you sell, and you're warned before you run out.
