Sound familiar?

You are good at solar.
The back-office is eating you alive.

📥
Inbox overloadThree email accounts, hundreds of messages, and no one to triage them.
📋
Admin that never endsInvoicing, stock checks, ordering — it all lands on one or two people.
📅
Calendar chaosAppointments missed, reschedules piling up, no system in place.
📉
Leads going coldYour sales consultants are closing and chasing at the same time. Something always suffers.

The real cost is not the admin. It is the decisions that do not get made, the leads that do not get followed up, and the growth that keeps getting pushed to next quarter.

"The problem is not that solar owners are bad at running a business. It is that they were never meant to do every job in it."

02
Standard set from day one
We step in ourselves first to understand the role fully before placing anyone, so the handoff is clean and the bar is already set.
03
Managed throughout
The contractor relationship is ours to manage. You direct the work, but the overhead stays on our side.
The process

From conversation to
contribution in four steps.

No lengthy intake forms, no waiting months for a hire. A clear process that gets the right person working in your business fast.

1

Discovery call

We learn your business, your gaps, and what great support looks like for you specifically.

2

Candidate match

We source and vet the right person from our network. Pre-screened, solar-briefed, and ready.

3

Trial period

A short trial to confirm the fit. Not right? We replace at no cost and the contract stays intact.

4

Ongoing support

We stay involved. The contractor relationship is managed so you never have to deal with it alone.

Appointment setters

The hidden cost of letting your sales consultants set their own appointments.

Your sales consultants are closers. They are good at walking into a home, building rapport, and converting a qualified prospect into a signed contract. That is the role you hired them for.

That is not what most of them are actually doing.

When your closers are responsible for their own lead follow-up, something predictable happens. They call once, maybe twice. They do not chase. They do not follow up five times across five days the way a dedicated setter would. Why would they? They are wired to close, not to grind through a cold list. The leads go stale, the pipeline thins, and eventually the burnout sets in — not because your consultants are lazy, but because you are asking them to do two completely different jobs at once.

The fix is not a better CRM. It is not a new script. It is a dedicated appointment setter who owns the pipeline from first contact to booked appointment, so your consultant walks in knowing the homeowner is expecting them, is pre-qualified, and has already said yes to the conversation.

That is a different energy entirely. And it shows in the conversion rate.

What a great appointment setter actually does

Works every lead until it is dead or booked. No cherry-picking, no giving up after one call.
Follows up consistently across days and channels without being told to.
Qualifies the homeowner before anything goes in the calendar.
Keeps your consultants' diaries full of real appointments, not hopeful maybes.

The cost comparison

A quality appointment setter based in Australia runs $80,000 to $120,000 per year once you factor in base, commissions, super, and on-costs.

For most small to mid-size solar businesses, that is a hire that sits on the edge of justifiable, and the first thing to go when the pipeline softens.

Solar Engine solves this for less than a quarter of that cost. You get a dedicated, solar-briefed appointment setter embedded in your business, managed by us, without the overhead of a full-time Australian employee.

Your closers close. Your setter sets. That is the business you actually want to run.

Who this is for

Built for solar businesses that are ready to scale.

We work best with a specific type of client. If this sounds like you, we should talk.

Australian solar installer or company Owner or operator doing too many jobs Growing team, back-office is stretched Ready to delegate, not micromanage Wants quality, not just cheap labour

And to be clear about who this is not for:

Not the right fit if

You want someone to hire and forget about
You are looking for the cheapest option available
You are not ready to onboard someone properly
You need someone hired and working tomorrow

We would rather be honest upfront than waste both our time. If it is a fit, it will be obvious on the call.

Why Solar Engine

We are operators, not just recruiters.

Solar Engine Staffing was built by people who understand how businesses actually run, not just how to fill seats. We bring a systems-thinking approach to every placement, which means we look at how your business operates before we recommend anyone.

Our network is built on trust, not volume. Every candidate in our pool has been personally vetted, briefed on the solar industry, and assessed for the communication standard that Australian clients expect.

"Most staffing agencies hand you a resume and wish you luck. We hand you someone who already understands your world and is ready to get to work."

Solar Engine Staffing

Before you go

Questions we get asked a lot.

Most agencies match a resume to a job description and consider the work done. We brief every candidate on the solar industry specifically, step in ourselves to set the standard before the placement, and stay involved throughout. You are not just buying a hire — you are buying an outcome.
Every placement includes a trial period. If it is not the right fit during that window, we replace the candidate at no cost to you. The engagement contract stays intact — we just find the right person instead.
No. The contractor relationship is managed by us throughout the engagement. You direct the work, but the HR, payroll, and management overhead stays on our side. That is the whole point.
After the discovery call we have a clear brief to work from and we move quickly. Most placements are ready to begin within a few weeks of the initial conversation.
Not at this stage. Every engagement is scoped based on the role, hours, and complexity. We cover pricing in full on the discovery call — no surprises and no pressure.
