Comments on Cris' review of REnU - Residential Energy Unit
REnU - Residential Energy Unit
Description: Solar Photovoltaic System - rental.
Citizenre - Growing pains will subside.
I'm interested in what this company is doing, and have been asking a lot of questions, and getting good honest feedback from a Citizenre sales associate:
1) Citizenre's offering is a paradigm-shift for the solar industry... renting PV panels instead of buying them…for the rest of us who can't afford to buy PV, renting is an easy, painless way to get renewable power (and save money).
2) Citizenre's opted to use a "network marketing" approach…Citizenre is the only network-marketing company that does not require the salespeople to spend any of their own money. There's no sales quota, no product to buy each month, and no cost to sign up... so it has none of the usual negatives associated with network marketing (which is why I signed on). Citizenre chose to use network marketing because they want this thing to roll out at the grass-roots level. Big Oil companies have stymied other solar start-ups by buying them out, but that won't be feasible once there are mass numbers of people out there selling this solution…
(sales associate continues) "I think Citizenre will be successful, but probably will be late with some deliverables in the short term. Building a brand new business of this magnitude is not easy, and they are going after it aggressively, so I expect some setbacks. But as long as people are patient, they'll get their pv systems... just maybe not as quickly as anyone would like…I think most people are open-minded about this… We'll be starting our pilot program very soon, so a lot of the criticism will stop once we start putting panels on rooftops… customers doesn't pay anything until the panels are ready to go on their roof."
I hope this feedback is helpful to others, as well.
