Keeping a solar recommendation within your role
A sales rep can gather useful context without making decisions reserved for technical or specialized reviewers.
A practical approach
Explain which parts of the discussion are discovery and which require additional approval. When a customer asks for a definitive answer outside your expertise, record it and route it appropriately. Avoid presenting a likely option as an approved design. Clear boundaries help the customer understand the purpose of each stage.
Put it into practice
- Distinguish discovery from approval
- Route specialized questions
- Label unapproved options
