CSS Updates Investors on High Volume Commercial and Residential Marketing Strategy
February 02 2011 - 6:00AM
Clear Skies Solar, Inc. (CSS) (OTCBB:CSKH), a full-service
renewable energy provider to commercial, industrial, and
agricultural clients today announced it has augmented its
management team with several new key hires as part of the Company's
strategy to add value and sustain operations with cash flow
productive projects by expanding its traditional market focus to
include solar installation projects in the sub-300kw sector for
commercial and residential installations.
Clear Skies Solar recently announced in Q4 2010 that the Company
will pursue the sub-300kw commercial and residential market by
establishing a new division to focus on projects within this space
and adding a new sales and management team with many years of
industry experience managing high volume projects. As part of
this plan, Clear Skies Solar has now hired Mr. Allen Sosis, to
serve as VP of sales and marketing, and Mr. John Conte, to serve as
the Company's National VP of residential sales, as the newest
members of the CSS Team specifically selected to oversee this
high-growth segment of the market.
Ezra Green, CEO of Clear Skies Solar remarked, "We are grateful
to our shareholders for their interest and concern in the growth
and future prospects of the Company and, to this end, as part of
our strategy, we are very pleased to announce that Mr. Allen Sosis
has joined us as our new VP of sales and marketing." He
continued, "Mr. Sosis has a strong and successful sales background,
including several years in the solar industry, and has delivered
results that exceed our expectations."
Mr. Sosis commented, "It is a pleasure to be here with CSS
working with the Team during this important time in the Company's
history. The expertise and knowledge that has made CSS well
known within the industry has already made my job much
easier." He continued, "As a result of the Company's new plan
and through these efforts, we have successfully financed several
additional commercial projects in a very short time. We expect
to start returning this value to the shareholders of Clear Skies
Solar in 2011."
The Company also announced Mr. John Conte recently joined Clear
Skies Solar as the National VP of residential sales. Mr. Conte
has overseen the sales and installation of more than one thousand
homes nationally, which represents more than 60 homes per month,
and he now brings these expertise to CSS. Ezra Green
commented, "With Mr. Conte and the CSS Team uniting their knowledge
set and base of experience, we expect to begin seeing immediate
results in this ever expanding market and plan to duplicate the
structure throughout the country."
Mr. Conte remarked, "Working with the CSS group has been a great
experience thus far as part of a company that truly understands the
many moving parts necessary to bring a plan into profitability; an
appreciation for business mechanics that is both very rare and very
important to long term success. I am very pleased to be part
of this Company when so much opportunity abounds."
"The results of these efforts have been immediate with the first
of many projects under this new program being a 160kw ground mount
system located on a Pennsylvania farm. The value of this self
financed project is approximately $759,000. This project contract
is signed, deposited and headed for engineering. We are also
restructuring our IR department in order to have consistent and
reliable information delivered to our shareholders," Ezra Green
