Wayne's Solar was already successful. That's the first thing you need to understand about this story.
They weren't a struggling company looking for a lifeline. They had a solid customer base, steady business, and a reputation that worked. By any measure, they were doing things right.
Then they added video: a monthly plan with four short videos a month. They got booked past what their install crews could handle, and they told me: "We've never been busier."
That's not hyperbole. That's what they told me. Here's what we did and why I think it worked.
The Wayne's Solar Situation
Port Orange. Established solar business. They'd built a solid reputation and consistent customer base in a competitive market.
In the solar industry, every qualified company can install systems. What sets one apart from another is whether potential customers trust them enough to call. In a market with multiple solid options, standing out requires more visibility and stronger connection with prospects.
Wayne's Solar was ready to invest in their growth. They understood that education and transparency could help them become the obvious choice for homeowners considering solar in their area.
What We Actually Did
This wasn't complicated. It was consistent.
Every month we film four short videos, and I edit them and post them to their accounts on a schedule.
The videos are short and practical: the questions homeowners ask about solar, answered on camera. Not commercials. Education.
What Changed
They got busier. Busy enough that, on four videos a month, they were booked past what their install crews could handle.
I can't hand you a spreadsheet that ties each call to a video. What I can tell you is why I think it worked.
1. They became the ones explaining things.
Homeowners researching solar find a lot of companies that look alike. The one answering their questions on video starts to feel like the obvious call. That builds authority in a way a static website never does.
2. They reached people beyond their existing circle.
Video gets shared. It gets found in searches. It reaches prospects who wouldn't have heard about them through traditional networks.
3. Prospects show up better informed.
When someone has already heard you explain how solar works and what to expect, the sales conversation starts further along. That's the whole point of educational video.

The Math
Four short videos a month, filmed in one session, edited, and posted for them. That's the whole plan. On my current pricing, four videos a month is the Starter plan at $1,249 a month, with posting included.
Consistent video builds over months, not days. That's why the plans run for a year.
Video isn't a quick fix. But it's a reliable investment if you stick with it. A lot of businesses give up before it has a chance to work.
Why This Matters for Your Business
Wayne's Solar demonstrates something critical: video works best when you're ready to scale what's already working.
They hired us because they wanted to grow. Video amplified a good business into an even stronger one.
Consistency beats perfection. One perfect video would've done nothing. Monthly decent videos did everything.
Education beats selling. Their videos weren't primarily commercials. They were educational. That's why they worked. People watched them because they learned something, not because they were being sold.
What I Recommend Based on This
- Commit to consistent video. Monthly or biweekly. Consistency builds everything.
- Start with education. What do your customers need to know? What questions do they ask? Answer those with video before you ask them to buy.
- Show your process. Transparency builds trust. Walk people through what happens when they work with you.
- Include social proof. Let actual customers describe what happened in their own words.
- Distribute everywhere. One video should live on YouTube, your website, social media, email, ads.
- Stick with it. Give it at least three months before you evaluate. Six months is better.
Could This Be Your Story?
Wayne's Solar isn't the only one. Found and Cherished Resale in Deltona doubled their daily profit after a year of five videos a month.
Could your business be next? If you're ready to grow and willing to stay consistent, it's worth finding out.
The question isn't whether video could work for your business. The question is whether you're ready to commit to it long enough to see real results.
