Double Your Ticket with Panel + Surge + EV Bundles

Want to command premium pricing?

Homeowners aren’t just buying parts - they’re buying control, protection, and future-readiness. This week we bundle everything they need - and make them want it.

[Electrical] Profit Play Series (Week 2 of 5): Premium Residential Bundles
Week 1: Lock In Revenue with EV, Generator & Grid Stress Plays
✅ Week 2: Package Smart Panels, Surge Protection & Panel Upgrades
Week 3: Sell Annual Maintenance + Peak-Rate Prep Bundles
Week 4: Market to Upscale Homeowners Without Cheap Ads

What’s happening now

  • Demand for whole-home surge protection just hit a boom - people are tired of expensive appliance replacements.

  • Smart breaker panels are no longer optional - they’re expected for EV charging and home automation.

  • Outdated 100A panels are becoming deal-killers. Every upgrade is an upsell and a test of trust.

These trends are your chance to bundle AND elevate your brand.

Three Strategic Moves

💡 1. Sell “Smart Surge” Upgrade Kits

Why it’s powerful: Homeowners want protection and control - and they'll pay for both.
How to do it:
• Install a surge unit that alerts via app
• Add monitoring breakers or relays
• Sell both as a “Home Power Management System”
Mistake to avoid: Don’t sell basic strips or one-off panels. Focus on integrated technology - and the value it delivers.

💡 2. Upsell 200A Panel Upgrades with EV Readiness

Why it’s essential: Level-2 chargers, solar, HVAC - all need more power.
How to do it:
• Evaluate their panel’s load capacity
• Offer a full upgrade to 200A, pre-wired for EV
• Position as “prepared for tomorrow and all upgrades”
Mistake to avoid: Don’t wait for panel breakdowns. Sell peace-of-mind capacity now.

💡 3. Tiered “Energy Optimization Kits”

Why it converts: Tiered offers reduce decision fatigue - clients pick your premium without hesitation.
How to do it:
• Basic: Surge + diagnostic report
• Pro: Surge + smart panel
• Elite: Pro + 200A panel + EV circuit ready
Mistake to avoid: No jargon. Speak in outcomes - protection, control, future-proofing.

5-Day Execution Plan
