The idea that helps Electric Utility Managers

Electric Utility Managers want to efficiently monitor and manage electricity distribution. However, they can't get it because they struggle to quickly identify and resolve power outages in real-time.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. PowerGrid Pro.

Of course it is much better than the stuff from GridPoint, ABB, or Schneider Electric!

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

  • Find out where electric utility managers hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
  • Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
  • Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
  • If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of electric utility managers, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
