Boundless is Working Hard to Improve Corporate Culture and the Environment

Employees often say working at Boundless is a breath of fresh air. The leaders of the company, Riley Traveller, CEO, and co-founders Bill, Jay, Derek, and Mark, make it their business to help their workers do the absolute best they can. 

Riley Traveller started selling solar products after college in 2013. He loved the idea of helping people save money and doing good for the future. Upon graduating, he worked at large solar companies in sales and found that the corporate world was much different than he imagined. He envisioned a workplace that helps employees succeed and found the opposite to be true. 

Riley worked in multiple states and helped open new markets on the east coast until he found his way to Massachusetts and met his co-founders. Together they decided to open Boundless. His co-founders come from different parts of the industry, and collectively, they put together one of the best and largest solar companies in the United States. 

The group not only focuses on delivering quality solar products and services to their customers, they focus heavily on their employees. This focus allowed the company to grow at an astounding pace. They started in June 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, and had a goal to create the best place in the world for solar sales people. In just over two years the company has gone from 5 people in a small 10x10 coworking space, to servicing nearly 1,000 new customers each month and hundreds of independent sales agents across the US. 

Boundless is a residential solar company, but they also specialize in hiring and molding top talent. New hires that come to Boundless work alongside Riley and the co-founders. The leaders of Boundless want to see their employees succeed in ways they never thought possible. So they take them under their wing and help them along the way. 

The company culture at Boundless is caring, and employees clearly understand they are valued. The leadership team works hard every day to make sure they deliver what the team needs to be better with each passing day. The Boundless manifesto says, "we do what we say, and we deliver." The entire team abides by this, working to lift each other up while helping residents achieve their goals.

Residential solar sales are an excellent platform for breeding success. Sales people work with customers to help them save money and the planet. There is a range of solar products homeowners can choose from to create the future financial situation they desire. Homeowners aren't writing huge checks for something that won't pay them in the end, and once their products are up and running, they are always pleased. 

Solar is one of the few businesses where the business and the customer end up with financial gains immediately after purchase. Not to mention the added benefit of spreading the use of renewable energy sources across the country. Boundless currently services 30 states and is continuing to expand. 

In addition to all the great work done by Boundless to save people money and create the ideal workplace, they also donate to the Give Power Foundation. With each new installation, they contribute enough to supply one person in an undeveloped country with clean water and electricity for 20 years. So far, they have supplied over 5,800 people with electricity and clean water. During their first trek to Nepal in May 2022, they helped a community in need gain access to clean water and electricity through solar and look forward to proding much more and going on more treks with GivePower in the future. In the coming months, they will embark on their second trek to Columbia in January 2023! 

Riley had always wanted to do something worthwhile with his life. For him, solar was the answer. As a college grad, he envisioned solar panels on every home and is now making it his mission to supply America with just that. Boundless is working with employees, customers, and the GivePower Foundation to truly make the world a better place. 

In his own words, "I believe that every person wants to do good in the world. They want to provide for their families and loved ones, they want to succeed to be an example to those that look up to them, and they want to have all of that be fulfilling and mission based. Our mission is to change our employees and agents' lives, not just financially, but through leadership opportunities and giving back. We have the formula: every single time we make a sale, our customers save money, our agents make money, and we give money away to those who need it most. It doesn't get any better than that."
