CEO\/VPs target 10x growth with AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“I want to grow to 2000cr from 200cr today” – the CEO of our client said at Chennai Solar Expo. (Not in pics). The role of AI is important, but most important is the ambition & vision of top leadership.

Another VP told me who recently changed jobs said, “This is my 3rd company, I am building sales from scratch. AI, tech & creativity is my super power. I want to grow 10x again.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why leadership matters before AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A decisive leader who wants growth for himself & his company is the most important aspect for AI to succeed. We spoke about same aspect to leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Case study & real examples<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our team showcased how one of our Solar clients got 300+ inbound leads handled via AI in first 3 months. Another case – our own usage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A CEO of a large company met us in Aug 2025 in Mumbai. Yesterday – He sent us message – “Your team has been following up with me on whatsapp, I want to start with AI Implementation”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was actually AI that was following up for roughly 9 months. This is how Solar leads too need to be followed up with automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A challenging market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Though all CXOs agree – market is much more competitive. Pricing wars have begun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some reasons VP of Sales attributed in Chennai Solar Expo was – “India has accumulated more supply than demand”. “Customer today knows too many things that he negotiates way too hard”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I deal with the textile industry for Solar deployment in Tamil Nadu, Kerala & Karnataka. Now we have to deal with 2 generations of owners & we seem to have had hard deals negotiating with them” – A VP told us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Solar leaders find tech & AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n


Yet to these, some CXOs\/VPs – that lion mentality of growth is what’s setting them apart. This is where AI is essential.

We showed people how AI can amplify in a tough market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can not control the market, but leaders are preparing for better technology, AI & Marketing strategies.

“Muje Chennai ja ke josh bahut aya” – Achal Mehra<\/a> told me. Business leaders discussing with Achal on AI and SAP was a delight to watch.

Atul Khandar<\/a> is a master at building a distribution network & we discussed how deep the network needs to be built in India & US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turning leaders’ unique insight to revenue<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Almost every leader seems to have very unique insight for their industry. So much so that, if it’s capitalized – it may alone be additional revenue of 100-200cr for the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean Energy & Chennai’s energy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

On top – Chennai – we loved the vibe of people, the cultural footprint everywhere. People smiled when we tried to speak Tamil & looked for local food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smiling people, great cultural vibe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Clean Energy & AI are some of the greatest paradigm shifts in the economy. But the ambition, vision & leadership of Humans\/CEOs, their teams, is what matters much before technology, branding, and marketing.

My salute to all CXOs\/Leaders building with vision. Vaayu – AI for Finance & Sales<\/a> is there to support Solar, EV, Cleantech companies with AI to amplify your execution plan with AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great luck ahead to all Solar leaders,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
