Report intake plan

Send the details that make a paid report useful.

Use this plan before or immediately after checkout. Complete intake prevents wasted research, reduces clarification emails, and keeps the one-business-day delivery target tied to a real project decision.

Required project context

The report focuses on one property and one project category. If a field is unknown, say unknown instead of guessing.

Goal

1 required field in this section.

  • primary decision: What the customer needs to decide next: quote, eligibility, paperwork, timing, or contractor questions.

Fastest path

  • Use the same email for checkout and intake.
  • Send ZIP, utility, project category, quote status, and timing first.
  • Attach quote PDFs, model numbers, audit notes, or photos only when they affect eligibility.

What slows delivery

  • Multiple properties or project categories in one order.
  • No utility provider when the program is utility-specific.
  • Already-installed projects where pre-approval may have been required.
  • Missing deadline, permit, financing, or contractor status when timing drives eligibility.
