Hello? This is Jesse. How have you been?
Uh, good. How about yourself?
I'm doing great. Thanks for asking. So I'm just following up about the electrical meter that was installed. That's your property, right?
The electrical meter?
Yes, the electrical meter. A couple of years back, everyone's electric meter was upgraded from analog to digital. And that was in preparation for the Net Energy Metering program, which is the reason for my call, which is being recorded for quality assurance. With this program, we'll actually be able to help you reduce your electric bill by up to 50% or more without you having to spend anything out of your pocket. Has anybody come by to talk to you about this yet?
Uh, no.
Got it. So in case you don't know, the program works this way. If you qualify— and unfortunately not everyone is qualifying for the program, by the way— we can replace your high electric bill with a much lower and fixed solar bill that can save you up to 50% or more on your bill. But to check if you are eligible, how much are you currently paying for your electric bill on a monthly average?
$150 to $200.
Got it. That's pretty high. So you are a pretty good candidate for the program. We'll go ahead and do a free consultation call with one of our reps here at Initiate Solar. And whether you want to go solar or not, we just want to be able to give you the information to help. That said, what time zone are you in?
I'm on the East Coast.
Great. You're on the East Coast. And does today, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow work best for your call?
Tomorrow.
Okay. Tomorrow works. And what time works best for you that day?
Um, probably noon. Perfect.
I'll lock in that time for you. By the way, is there anyone else going to help you make this decision, like a spouse or a partner?
Nope.
Just to double-check. Okay, amazing. So I have all that I need, and thanks again. Please remember to be around as our solar technicians go around the community just to give you guys the information. Kindly mark that on your calendar, and you should also get a text asking to send a utility bill. This will just make this visit a lot faster, so you can text that number if anything changes.
Okay.
Great, thank you so much for your time. We look forward to speaking with you tomorrow. Have a wonderful day.
