We pride ourselves on providing the best customer experience and only hire top-tier individuals. As a Solar Sales Associate, you will be at the forefront of lead generation and client acquisition, helping homeowners transition from expensive, dirty power to clean solar energy. Your role will involve direct homeowner lead generation through various methods including cold calling, remote appointment setting, and door-to-door interactions. You will be responsible for setting in-home appointments and closing high-ticket contracts ranging from $20,000 to $100,000. In this position, you will utilize various communication methods such as calls, emails, and texts to assess the validity and potential of leads.

As you grow into the role, you will become a proficient solar professional, gaining a comprehensive understanding of our products and services. Closing deals is a key part of your responsibilities, and while this can take time, we provide the support needed to help you succeed. This role offers uncapped commission-based sales, with average commissions ranging from $4,000 to $6,000 per sale.

As a 1099 contractor, you will have the flexibility to manage your own schedule while being part of a team that values commitment and hard work. We are looking for motivated and ambitious individuals who are ready to take on the challenges of this rewarding career. If you are eager to learn, adapt, and grow, and if you thrive in a merit-based environment, then 1st Solar is the right place for you.
