30 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 7 Pullen attributes the company’s success across three states to their business model, noting, “We have a marketing staff. We have a sales staff. We do our own design and engineering. We also do our own installations and we have a service and support department.” While many companies in the market specialize in sales or construction, Eagle Point Solar “bucked that trend” and provide a turnkey solution for the customer. Not only does the company have a strong team of partners working together in-house, but they also have strong partners on the outside. They pride themselves on forming lasting relationships with other industry leaders. As others struggle to meet demands in the industry due to COVID-19 related supply issues, Eagle Point Solar is thriving, thanks to a strategic partnership with Van Meter, a primary supplier in their area. “Without having a partner like Van Meter, I’m not sure how we would manage the people were staying home they tended to think about spending money on their homes and improving their homes. So the COVID effect for us was really more of changing the way that we operated because we couldn’t meet people face to face.” It shouldn’t be shocking that a company selling solar power systems is able to adapt and change. “We used the telephone more,” explained Pullen. “We used the internet more. We were able to weather the storm.” Today they are a company approaching 100 employees. And while their headquarters is still in Dubuque, Iowa, they also have satellite offices in Cedar Rapids and Des Moines, Iowa. They also have a presence in Wisconsin and a growing presence in Illinois. Solar Power World ranked Eagle Point Solar as one of the Top Solar Contractors and Top Solar + Storage Contractors in the U.S. in 2021. In 2022, they are on pace to do an excess of 700 projects.
