Not necessarily. There are government incentives on Federal and State levels. Not to mention that it's better to get into it early and be established than trying to get into it when it gets hot. Additionally, the big contracts come from government and enterprises, not so much from home owners.
I don't really think it'll catch on with home owners until it drops a bit more -- on top of the already available incentives.

Eugene - You should work in my industry. You know what I do and where I've worked. It's a great industry with the opportunity to make A LOT of money, as you gain more experience -- and it's a ton of fun too. Since my old company was one of your clients, you should reach out and see if they have anything for you. Tell them you'd like to get into sales and work your way towards that. If you need any help, let me know. I'm still very good friends with my old CEO and CFO. Good luck!

I dont know what C has told all of you but the truth is, he's a fresh air inspector. He loiters around public urinals and inspects the air quality. He sometimes even hands you a towel for those of you that actually wash your hands. Not a bad idea. I mean hes already there, might as well try for some tips. He does have some pretty crazy stories though. No wonder he carries a taser after those run-ins with those freaks who go cruisin in those places. Tough job but he does make coin.

Thanks for all the Advise..
Vlad... I'd possibly like to hear more about this solar panel idea.
Calton... Funny enough. I was actually thinking about your field of business when I was thinking of what else is out there. I just wouldnt know where to start and have no experience in the field.

You remember my CFO, right? Don't want to mention his name here. I would connect with him. Great guy and he could help point you in the right direction. Account Management would be a good place to start learning the sales side of the biz.
