Hey, welcome back. Solar warriors.

Thank you for listening. You could be doing anything with your time right now, so I'm grateful that you've chosen to join us for another episode of SunCast.

Here at SunCast, we’ve had such an amazing week so far. Yesterday, we had our first ever SunCast Clean Energy Summit, which is a free event to focus on capacity and community building for our #SolarWarriors and the broader cleantech industry.

Yesterday’s schedule featured great minds in the industry such as Andrew birch, aka “Birchy”, Adam Browning, Julia Hamm, John DiJulius, who is an internationally renowned speaker and entrepreneur, and other amazing people. So many good things happened and will continue to happen for the next couple of weeks, so I encourage you to go check it out.

I'm honored that you're joining me and pouring into this fantastic world of clean energy. Today's entrepreneur, Scott Ringlein, is the Founder and Principal of the Energy Alliance Group of North America (EAG). Scott is also a Technical Advisor to the U.S. Department of Energy and conducts technical reviews of applications for technology innovation & commercialization. We go really deep into how Scott thinks about servicing his customers. Besides that, we will discuss some of the lessons learned on his journey of the power of networking, having a mentor, accepting what you can not change and accepting that you can't do everything.

“It's okay to change your business plan. And if you want to have a perfect plan, chances are you're gonna show up too late” - Scott Ringlein.

Scott and I had a phenomenal conversation, and I think that you'll agree in that there's a lot in here for those of you who are looking for mentorship, particularly around sales and customer service skills. Be ready, because I encourage you to listen with your pen in hand. I took a lot of notes, and I hope that you will too, Solar Warrior.

Thanks a ton to our podcast sponsors, Extensible Energy for continuing to help make this content FREE to You! Please check them out and let me know what you think!
