Inverters, batteries and the choices in a solar proposal often need more explanation. Start with what the proposed system includes, then show how your team plans and carries out the work. ![Solar panels on a building roof](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/solar.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Kindel Media / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/solar-panels-on-a-building-s-roof-9800001/). [Pexels License](https://www.pexels.com/license/).* ## Separate the system from the project Begin with a labeled house illustration. Show a battery as optional when that is how the offer works, rather than quietly including it in every system. Move next to assessment, scope review, installation coordination, and customer handoff. Each stage should identify who provides information and who confirms the next step. Avoid turning a sample sequence into a promise about every project's timing. ## What to bring to the brief Use your system diagrams, proposal options, manufacturer images and monitoring screens as the starting material. Check the example against the service you offer, including any separately agreed work. Review the sequence in simple sketches before choosing the final animation. ![Technical drawings beside a laptop](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/blueprint.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Thirdman / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/blueprints-and-a-laptop-8470810/).

If they assume the battery or another optional component is standard, change the labels. The explanation doesn't need unsupported energy forecasts, savings figures or a promise that every home is suitable. ## Related reading - [Show customers how your service works](https://caprivideo.com/guides/b2b-explainer-videos) - [What should customers send an EV charger installer?](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/ev-charger-installation-videos) ## Related pages - [Industry group: Local services & trades](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services) - [A little more background: Show customers how your service works](https://caprivideo.com/guides/b2b-explainer-videos) - [What should customers send an EV charger installer?](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/ev-charger-installation-videos): Explain the property details and safely accessible photos your team needs before assessing an installation. - [Make a roofing quote easier to understand](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/roofing-explainer-videos): A roof cutaway can show the agreed work, followed by the preparation and walkthrough customers can expect. - [Show how window options work in the room](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/window-installation-videos): Compare two opening styles, then explain measurement, installation and the choices still to be confirmed. - [Before the painters arrive](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/painting-contractor-videos): Show customers what preparation includes, who moves what and how to discuss work outside the quote. - [Why wallpaper patterns need a closer look](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/wallpaper-installer-videos): Two strips are enough to show how a repeat lines up and why the chosen material matters before ordering. - [There's more to a flooring quote than the finish](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/flooring-explainer-videos): Use a cutaway to explain layers, preparation and the differences customers should discuss when comparing options. ## See your offer as a video We create a free watermarked video for your business from your website.
