Overwhelmed sales team & low conversion rates – a system that couldn't keep up.

Before implementing AI automation, Sun Plan Energy’s sales team spent a significant amount of time manually handling inquiries and following up with potential customers. Their existing workflow involved sending out SMS campaigns to prospects, but the response handling was slow and inconsistent, leading to lost leads and inefficiencies.

  • Manual SMS follow-ups delayed customer responses
  • Sales agents were spending too much time on unqualified leads
  • Low conversion rates due to slow engagement
  • High operational costs from inefficient lead management
With an increasing number of inquiries, Sun Plan Energy needed a smarter, automated solution to engage leads instantly, qualify potential customers, and schedule appointments more effectively.
Overwhelmed sales team & low conversion rates

In solar, speed wins – the first response gets the deal.

Solar is a high-consideration purchase where timing is everything. Homeowners researching solar solutions are comparing multiple providers — and the business that responds first with relevant, helpful information wins the deal. Manual follow-up simply can’t compete with instant AI-powered engagement.
The first thing we told Sun Plan: “Your leads aren’t cold — your response time is. Let AI handle the first conversation.”
We identified three levers that would drive real transformation:
  • Instant AI-driven SMS responses the moment a lead enters the system
  • Intelligent qualification — filtering tyre-kickers from high-intent buyers automatically
  • Automated appointment booking — removing the back-and-forth and getting qualified leads in front of sales agents faster
This insight shaped every automation decision.

The Strategy

We transformed Sun Plan Energy’s manual sales process into a fully automated AI-powered pipeline — in four phases. We call it the Webco AI Sales Engine.

AI-powered SMS automation setup

Why this mattered:

Solar leads go cold fast. An instant AI response within seconds of enquiry ensures Sun Plan is the first company to engage — before competitors even pick up the phone.

Intelligent lead qualification

Outcome:

Sales agents stopped wasting time on tyre-kickers. Only pre-qualified, high-intent leads reached the team — dramatically improving close rates and morale.

Automated appointment scheduling

Result:

Appointment no-shows dropped significantly. Leads arrived pre-informed and ready to discuss — shortening the sales cycle and increasing deal value.

Performance optimisation and continuous learning

Outcome:

Continuous AI optimisation means Sun Plan's system gets smarter every month — improving conversion rates, reducing cost per acquisition, and scaling without adding headcount.

We call it the Webco AI Sales Engine.
