Challenges and Objectives

In a challenging industry known for ever-changing laws, trends and technologies (a.k.a. The Solar Coaster) Odin Energy was a model of growth and success. But with a 99% door-to-door workforce, Director of Sales Trevor Gosar knew that rounding out his sales machine with phone-based reps would be a smart, long-term move. When Covid-19 hit, creating an inside sales team went from upcoming priority to immediate need.

The Solution

Diving head-first into lead-gen, Gosar wanted a dialer that would foster efficiency without sacrificing the company’s trademark personalized service. “I’m not a fan of the auto-dialer style. I don’t want that lag when a lead answers the phone.” With its delay-free connections, PhoneBurner was a perfect fit.

Gosar set up LeadStreams to automate lead distribution, allowing his remote team to log in and immediately start dialing. Real-time leaderboards delivered much-needed oversight to management, while providing motivation and gamification to his reps. Gosar also utilized call recordings for coaching and to continually improve his team’s outbound process.

The Results

We’re trying to master cold calling. We’ve had great success.

For a team that’s brand new to cold calling, Gosar’s results are impressive. He ramped up his remote team quickly, and built out a personal, yet efficient process that’s generating real results. “We did about half a million in sales last week just in Phoenix,” he shared.

Gosar is excited to scale his inside sales channel even after door-to-door sales resume. “We can plug a new agent into PhoneBurner and get them dialing without a headache.” What began as a pandemic lifeline, is a bright spot of opportunity for Odin Energy’s future. “I really believe in this.”
