How to Sell a Smart Meter in 1 Minute

Every installer knows the scenario: a client invests in solar panels, an EV charging station, and/or a home battery, but hesitates over that 'extra' smart meter. This is a pity, as without a smart meter, the full potential of the installation cannot be realised. Fortunately, there are numerous benefits to highlight demonstrating why a smart meter is indispensable. This blog provides practical tips for advising your clients on this system quickly and convincingly.

Why a Smart Meter?

The smart meter forms the foundation of modern energy management. It measures electricity consumption and generation in real-time. Without these insights, a system cannot be intelligently controlled – a missed opportunity for your client. Whether it's about saving costs, smart energy usage, or preparing for the future, the smart meter makes it all possible.

Ask the Right Questions

Advising your client effectively begins with asking the right questions. "Would you like to see for yourself how much electricity you generate and how much you consume?" This is an excellent initial question to focus on the control and convenience the meter offers.

The Benefits at a Glance

Furthermore, it is important to explain how the smart meter works, particularly by highlighting its benefits. And there are quite a few. Consider these:

• Gain greater control over energy

• Save on energy costs

• Achieve maximum system efficiency

• Obtain real-time insights

• Become future-proof with dynamic energy tariffs in mind

With these arguments, it quickly becomes clear to your client that a smart meter is an integral part of the overall installation.
