Case Study: Launching a New Entrant in Renewable Energy
A new entrant in the national renewable energy arena wanted to gain insight from homeowners on their awareness, attitudes and willingness to adopt renewable energy systems by conducting renewable energy market research. Using GreenTrak™ Omnibus, insight was gained regarding alternative energy as a viable source, willingness to invest in alternate energy technologies, and the dynamics accelerating adoption of renewable energy attitudes. Using this strategic insight, marketing materials, including targeted print ads, an interactive web-site and supporting PR initiatives, were deployed to advance, educate and inform, laying the foundation for prospecting and sales.
