Frequently Asked Questions

How can I avoid payment delays while waiting for utility 'Permission to Operate' (PTO)?

The best way to maintain cash flow is to use a digital invoice that separates the 'Installation Completion' milestone from the 'PTO' milestone. By sending an automated invoice the moment the physical work is finished, you can collect the bulk of your funds immediately rather than waiting weeks for the utility company's bureaucracy.

What is the most effective way to collect for solar service calls or maintenance?

Using a mobile-friendly digital invoice allows your technicians to generate and send a bill before they even leave the customer's driveway. When clients can click a 'Pay Now' button on their phone, you eliminate the 'I'll mail a check' excuse and get paid for small jobs instantly.

How do I handle clients who try to dispute the final payment over minor cosmetic issues?

Digital invoices allow you to attach photos of the completed, high-quality install directly to the bill. This provides documented proof of work that aligns with your contract, making it much harder for clients to justify withholding payment for non-functional concerns.
