Which HubSpot Plan Is Best For Solar Companies?

If you're a solar company interested in using HubSpot CRM then you've landed in the right place!

We've been helping solar companies with automation, efficiency and business processes for over seven years. The HubSpot CRM platform makes it easy for your entire company to work together — from marketing, to sales, to customer service. 

With HubSpot you can identify gaps in processes and implement solutions to fix team frustrations and improve profitability. Forget complicated, time-consuming manual processes.  HubSpot CRM takes care of all things like:

  • logging emails and recording calls,
  • managing your data to free up your admin, marketing and sales team
  • automating as much as possible to cut down double-handling
  • managing solar pipelines from lead to installation
  • automating communication as the lead works through the buying stages 
  • list segmentation for up-sell and cross-sell opportunities
  • implementing customer surveys
  • improving marketing lead generation campaigns (landing pages, forms, email marketing, SMS marketing)
  • removing the need to maintain spreadsheets.

Of course, there are other CRMs available on the market, however, in our experience we recommend HubSpot to be most suited to solar companies who want to focus on processes and efficiencies.

So, let's dive in.


HubSpot Plans For Solar Companies

 

HubSpot offers a range of packages and pricing to suit all solar companies.  The range available can be overwhelming to consider, so we're going to break it down for you.

The following recommendations are based on our years of experience working with solar dealers looking to create efficiencies in their business.

Note: we do have some solar dealers on the Marketing Hub Pro plan with Sales Hub Enterprise. The Sales plan upgrade is really dependent on your business maturity and goals, which we can discuss with you in a call prior to you choosing the best HubSpot plan for your solar business.

HubSpot Plan Pricing 

Current monthly pricing for the HubSpot Hubs:

  • Marketing Hub Pro: AU$1,150/mo
  • Sales Hub Pro: AU$648/mo

Total cost per month for these HubSpot Hubs: AU$1,798 +GST

 

TIP: Talk to your HubSpot account manager to see if this pricing can be negotiated. HubSpot sometimes has monthly specials where you can get amazing deals that are grandfathered for 12 months.

 

XEN Solar Implementation Pricing 

If you would like XEN Solar to set up your HubSpot accounts in line with other solar dealers' success, we charge between $2,000 - $12,000.

So for the recommended combination of HubSpot Marketing Hub Pro + Sales Hub Pro, you will be charged $8,000 +GST.  This is a one-off fee, split over the 3-month delivery timeline.

 

After Implementation, We Don't Leave You Stranded!

We offer ongoing HubSpot support after set up. HubSpot On-Demand Service is available to anyone who has a HubSpot account and needs quick, responsive support - without the need for retainers, contracts or pre-paid blocks of time.  Our On-Demand service is charged at an hourly rate - only pay for what you need.
