Students welcomed Bob Eaton of Day and Night Solar last week to share his experience as a business leader. Bob is not only a business leader, but he is also an Investor and Mentor to the Gateway CEO program! Bob spent some time sharing his expertise in Solar, but the key takeaways are relevant to any business! Here are some of the great insights for their business --
- Marketing/Selling benefits of your business is always required to be successful. Solar Energy offers many incentives and credits. Don't be afraid to find similar type incentives that may help creatively promote your business!
- Creating a turn key solution for customers may be your differentiator! Day and Night elects to partner nationwide with the IBEW, counting on their quality of work that is available nationwide for any projects.
- What are your strategic relationships? Sometimes key relationships that began 10-20 years ago may come into play as companies/individuals grow in their industries.
- Don't ever stop trying to grow your business! As industries change and technologies improve, there is always opportunity to find new solutions to meet customer needs! Be that resource to help others.

Thank you so much Bob for the investment that you have continually made to Gateway CEO! We appreciate you!
