Understanding the Key Market Intermediaries – the PV installers in South Africa brought to you by Solar Power Africa and EUPD Research
- The recommendation of the installer is one of the main reason for customers to choose a certain brand. For manufacturers, it is therefore of high importance to be well positioned in terms of brand awareness and recommendation amongst installers.
- Having reached a wide distribution in the installers’ portfolios, it is vital to assure one's position by maintaining a high level of satisfaction. This is expressed, for example, by a high rate of recommendation, which again leads to a broader brand awareness.
- Understanding the PV installers, their attitudes and needs, is crucial for your successful PV business. Installers are directly connected to the customers and know the current market trends.
