Suntech Power Holdings Co. Ltd., a manufacturer of crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules, has announced its new North American Partner Program, which is designed to increase its current network of installers and help dealers generate more sales. Formally launching in January 2010, the Suntech Partner Program will offer selected dealers a co-marketing fund, training and services, financing programs and priority access to its product line.
With applications open to all North American solar installers, Suntech's Partner Program will feature a proprietary Partner Portal, which allows Suntech dealers to manage their Suntech account, retrieve and track leads, and access a variety of sales and marketing resources.
Additionally, Suntech worked with Clean Power Finance, a provider of software and services to renewable energy professionals, to develop a proposal tool/CRM service that allows Suntech partners to produce customized proposals; utilize a continuously updated database of utility rates, incentives and rebates; track and manage their customers from interest to installation from one central location; and produce quotes using pre-loaded Suntech solar modules.
