Overview
Since 2009, Florida-based Go Solar Power has been a national leader in green energy, performing thousands of installations of Tesla solar shingles, batteries, and powerwalls. They’ve built a reputation as a trusted name, delivering clean energy solutions to both residential and industrial clients. Despite the competitive landscape, GSP has continued to thrive, staying at the forefront of the solar industry.
Boosting conversions by nearly 50% while cutting ad spend is a big win for any business aiming to break into new markets. In the crowded solar industry, standing out is tough, but LP helped Go Solar Power fine-tune its messaging and reach its target audience. This case study offers key takeaways for other sales-driven businesses looking to fill their pipeline with more qualified leads.
New Horizon
Before partnering with LP, GSP managed its ad campaigns in-house with mixed success. Although it saw potential in its efforts, it needed more expertise to execute a robust multi-state lead generation strategy. That’s when it turned to LP for a comprehensive account audit and roadmap to improve customer acquisition and resolve lead attribution hurdles.
Goals
- Keep CPA under $100
- Increase conversion rates
- Build brand awareness and improve targeting
- Develop lead attribution roadmap
Go Solar Power has a lot to offer anyone looking for affordable and reliable alternative energy solutions. We knew the market was there, but we didn’t have a strong online customer acquisition strategy. That’s where LP had the biggest impact. They opened new channels and were fundamental to our expansion into new territories.

CallRail Integration
Being a service-based business, these Lead Generation campaigns relied on our CallRail integration to track attribution. Once we had enough data to establish a baseline for performance, we continued sculpting their respective audiences to uncover as many new prospects as possible. We targeted the demographics above to keep top of funnel traffic flowing to their website.
