Solar appointments versus solar leads

Solar appointments and solar leads are sold side by side and are often discussed as though they were the same purchase at different price points. They are not. One is a booked meeting in your calendar, the other is an enquiry you own and work yourself.

The distinction matters most in commercial, where the meeting is only the opening of a sales cycle that runs for quarters. An appointment gets you in the room once. An opportunity with the site data attached is an asset your team can work repeatedly.

This guide will compare the two on risk position, cost, ownership and what happens when the first conversation does not go anywhere, so you can decide which fits how your team actually sells.
