Wrench-Referrals List [RE-wrenches]

[Travis Creswell, Ozark Solar]

Good points. I agree.  I hadn't thought about non-installers being able to
add leads to the list. I was only looking at them as someone who could take
leads from the list and offer "to beat any bodies price".  Getting
unqualified leads has always been one of the worse problems with
factory/distributor generated leads.  Any chance to educate these people
needs to be taken advantage of and if that comes by getting catalogues or
getting sent to web sites with ridiculous prices then hopefully at least
they learn something.  Then maybe the next time the come to us they at least
know what they want and have an idea of what it can do.
