Market Notification – Nickel Pricing

Due to the unprecedented worldwide nickel price volatility, on Thursday March 11th, Just Mfg. is implementing a temporary pause on order acceptance.
Please hold all orders pending further communication regarding this issue.
In the coming days we will communicate specifics of our order fulfillment plan as we work to attain pricing clarity from our stainless steel vendors. It is our intention to navigate through this issue in an expeditious manner.
Thank you for your cooperation during these challenging economic times.

AMI JOBSITE DELIVERY UPDATE

American Marble would like to reach out to you with an update on our jobsite delivery policy. Due to the current circumstance of our economy and prices rising–we are raising our MINIMUM jobsite delivery fee to $250.00 immediately. This is the minimum charge based on proximity. 
In addition, we’ve received customer feedback regarding manpower for unloading the product on jobsite deliveries. One AMI employee can carry a 37 x 72 panel maximum with no help. If you have a jobsite delivery with flat stock/ panel larger than 18.5 sqft–we will now offer two options: – One: Coordinate with your contractor/customer to ensure someone will be at the location to assist in unloading – Two: AMI can provide an additional staff member to assist with unloading if contractor/ customer is unavailable or incapable of assisting. If a secondary AMI employee is required,  an additional cost will be charged to cover their time and labor based on jobsite location. Total minimum cost for a two person delivery team would be $300 minimum. 
This is effective immediately for any new, incoming orders that are jobsite delivery. With any questions or concerns–please reach out to the office personnel here at (330)453-8437 or email orders@amitops.com

Baldwin 5/23 Price Increase

With persistent and rising inflation in global manufacturing and transportation costs, Baldwin has been working hard to maintain service, quality, and a healthy brand while delivering the best value to your customers in the face of unprecedented business pressure. We have made inventory investments to support our expanded Quick Ship program over the last 24 months and continue our accelerated pace of new product introductions. At this time, it is necessary to implement a price increase in the Reserve product portfolios and an adjustment within Estate as outlined below. We appreciate your partnership during these challenging times.

ESTATE PRICE ADJUSTMENT

We are eliminating the 2 Tier pricing structure and are harmonizing pricing across all finishes in the portfolio. There will no longer be an upcharge for our specialty and PVD Finishes, as we will increase the price on the former Tier 1 finishes and decrease price on our former Tier 2 finishes. These changes will take effect on May 23, 2022 across all product categories.

Estate Price Adjustment Overview:

  • 7% increase on former Tier 1 finishes
  • 7% decrease average on Tier 2 finishes (decrease % varies by SKU

RESERVE PRICE INCREASE

In addition, we will also increase prices on the Reserve Portfolio taking effect on May 23, 2022. New list price changes apply to all product categories. 

Reserve Price Increase Overview:

  • 5% increase on Handlesets
  • 10% increase on Levers, Knobs, MultiPoint and Deadbolts
  • 8% increase on Service parts
  • $10 Master Keying cost

Please see below for details and timeline regarding the upcoming changes:

  • Orders placed prior to May 22, 2022 will be entered using current list prices.
  • Orders placed starting May 23, 2022 will be entered using the new list prices.
  • Updated Estate and Reserve PDF and hard copy price books will be available by mid-April 2022.
  • An updated Excel Price List detailing the Estate and Reserve increases is now available.

We want to ultimately thank you for your partnership and appreciate your openness and help with these adjustments. If you have any additional questions on any of these updates, please contact your Baldwin Sales Representative.

What Will It Take to Earn Your Business?

Updates from Marvin Montgomery
Sales Tip #582 From The Sales Doctor
What Will It Take to Earn Your Business?
The next time that your customer begins to procrastinate and decides not to make a decision right now, don’t panic and begin discounting your original offer.

That displays desperation, hurts your credibility, and comes across as being pushy. It’s amazing what people will tell you if you just ask them.

So stop guessing and just ask them, “What will it take to earn your business?”

If nothing else, you will get a starting point and move forward from there.
