Challenges before CrmLeaf
  • Leads coming from WhatsApp, phone and email - no single view
  • Quotes built manually per product - slow and error-prone
  • Stock levels unknown until a project starts - overstocking or shortages
  • Invoices raised manually, payments tracked in Excel
  • No visibility on which products or reps drive the most margin

Customer Story

What Solar Dealers say

As a dealer we do not run installations - we sell and supply. CrmLeaf finally gave us a platform that fits that model. The BOQ from our product catalogue is the single biggest time-saver. What used to take a day of back-and-forth on WhatsApp now takes 15 minutes. Our close rate went up just from responding to clients faster.

FAQ

Questions from Solar Dealers

Yes. CrmLeaf has a dealer-specific workflow - leads, product BOQ proposals, inventory management and client invoicing - without requiring you to use project milestone or crew management features. You only use the modules relevant to your business.

Yes. Your product catalogue can include panels, inverters, cables, mounting, BOS, accessories and services. Each product has its own SKU, specs, cost price and selling price. BOQ generation pulls from the catalogue and calculates the proposal value automatically.

When a deal is won and the BOQ is approved, CrmLeaf reserves the required stock quantities from your warehouse. The reserved stock shows as unavailable to other deals. If stock is insufficient, an alert triggers a vendor PO for the shortfall.

Yes. The sales dashboard shows revenue, cost and margin by product category, SKU and sales agent. You can identify your most profitable product lines and which agents are selling on margin vs discounting.
