Investigating and pioneering further sales channels
› Meyer Burger already investigates further sales channels with pioneering
potential, e.g., establishment of direct B2C sales channels with residential
end-customers on- and offline to increase tangibility of PV systems and
leverage its brand as premium supplier
Implement country-tailored strategies to directly sell to small/medium
installers
> Sales organizations for the residential and small commercial segment are
market-specific due to individual regional characteristics, demanding
tailored approaches to fully exploit potentials (e.g., bundling as extended
offering, selling via utilities/solution providers)
Reinforce and increase wholesaler and installer network with loyalty
programs
Establish distribution partnerships and loyalty programs for installers to
focus on enhancement of the wholesale and installer base as well as
electrical wholesale trade to complement Meyer Burger's distribution
network
Market to wholesalers, large installers and solar leasing providers
> Hiring of staff with existing and established relationships with
wholesalers, large installers and solar leasing providers form the basis of
Meyer Burger's sales network and ensure a broad distribution with
limited sales efforts
