PATIO LIGHTING OPPORTUNITIES: HOW TO SELL
We now offer the Prime Patio line of professional grade outdoor string lighting for outdoor living spaces. Patio lighting is an easy add-on sale to any landscape project where there is an outdoor gathering space like a patio, deck, pergola, gazebo or courtyard. Capturing the additional sale - and the increased customer satisfaction - that comes from offering patio lighting is easy.
Here are some tips:
Focus on the Benefit of Usability: Patio lighting makes outdoor spaces usable in the evening and night hours when it would be otherwise too dark to enjoy them. Because patio lighting can be installed in different patterns and spacing, you can create a variety of moods to match the need - from romantic and relaxing to festive and fun.
Take Advantage of Opportunities on Your Projects: Many outdoor gathering spaces lend themselves to easy installation of patio lighting. Instead of letting the homeowner install cheap light sets themselves, offer professional patio lighting as an option. For only a few hundred dollars more, the customer gets a better product and professional installation.
Tie It Together with Other Landscape Lighting: Landscape lighting does a great job of highlighting trees and architecture, but it doesn't always do a great job of lighting large open gathering spaces. Now with Prime Patio, you can connect patio lighting into the same 12-volt system.
