Energy
Alternatives Dealer Program |
EA Energy Alternatives Ltd. has an established, dedicated dealer
network across the country, primarily focused in Western Canada. We are
one of those rare companies who takes extreme pride in the quality of
our installations, and we expect the same of our dealers.
These days it seems everyone is jumping on the green bandwagon. This
is great news for the renewable energy sector. It's also a challenge for
us to keep up to the number of applications we receive for dealerships,
while maintaining the top-quality service customers have come to expect
from EA.
It's just not possible for us to entertain every application we receive..
For us to consider a dealership, here are some basic prerequisites:
You are building onto an established, successful business in a
closely-related field. We are generally not able to work with start-up
businesses due to the very high rate of failure. Though renewable energy
is becoming more and more popular, Canada currently lags behind the rest
of the world as we have had little to no government support whatsoever.
You have sufficient trades experience in the products you are
looking to deploy. IE if you are installing electrical systems, you need
to have a ticketed electrician on staff, or a solid relationship with
an outside party.
You must be willing to invest in a demonstration renewable energy
system.
You have a solid business plan, and sufficient capital to pull
it off.
You are not in geographic conflict with established dealers. We
do not provide exclusive territories, but at the same time, we will not
add new dealers to existing areas that are currently well-served. In those
situations, we encourage the new prospect to forge a business relationship
with the existing dealer.
You are looking at this as a long-term, serious business opportunity.
Renewable Energy in Canada is not a get-rich-quick industry. There's certainly
some money to be made, but it takes time & hard work to build a profitable
business, as any entrepreneur will tell you.
If the above criteria applies to you, we are interested. To apply for
a dealership, we ask you to provide a 1 page maximum summary of your business
plan, including your area of operation, listing of the team members and
their relevant experience.
We will review your application in a first-come, first-served basis.
Applicants that we are interested in working with will be contacted for
further information and to move forward in a mutually beneficial manner.
Once you are on-board, we will work out a personalized training program,
which is typically having our experienced design and installation crews
work with you on your first few projects. Hands on training is what we
find most dealers prefer.
We do realize there are other companies out there that will rubber-stamp
any dealer application that comes across their desk, this is not EA's
model. There are many companies out there who are sending dealers loose
without sufficient training. These poorly done jobs give a black-eye to
the entire industry. The last thing anyone needs is injury or death caused
by shoddy installations. And trust us, we have some seen some spectacularly
dangerous systems installed by those who should know better!
