Generac Standby Generators Joins HomeSphere

    LAKEWOOD, CO, December 03, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Generac Power Systems and HomeSphere, Inc. announced today they have entered into a joint agreement to offer Generac's automatic home standby generators to HomeSphere's network of builders using HomeSphere's technology-driven solutions.

Generac, based in Waukesha, Wis., joins more than 75 manufacturing brands currently using HomeSphere's BRI lead generation and marketing program to produce new builder leads and strengthen existing business, thus growing their market share through increased homebuilder sales.

"The BRI program is a powerful tool that allows us to offer even more builders access to home standby generators for their customers," said Brady Boyd, director of sales, Generac. "As power outages continue to rise in frequency and severity, consumers will continue to demand them to protect their homes. With this partnership, the HomeSphere network of builders can offer their customers the protection of the best home standby generators on the market."

BRI is a unique builder rebate management and building product manufacturer lead generation application serving the residential construction industry. Manufacturers use the BRI service to open sales channels with thousands of homebuilders and remodeling contractors, gaining access to new accounts and building recognition for their products and services. Builders, on the other hand, use HomeSphere to gain product knowledge and manage their cash-producing rebates, helping them to improve their bottom line.

Founded in 1959, Generac was the first company to engineer affordable home standby generators. Today, its Guardian Series home backup generators are the top selling home standby generators in the United States and its products outsell all of its competitors combined.

"With its leadership in the standby generator market, Generac is a valuable addition to the BRI program," said Chris Toth, HomeSphere's Vice President of Sales. "The company is well known for its superior products and reliable service- qualities that are attractive to our builder base."
