Baldwin Estate – Product Launch

 I am excited to pass along information related to the Baldwin Estate Preconfigured and Quickship program.  

The existing Quickship program will be back up and running at 100% 1/1/2021.  Most of the sku’s have already recovered and are in stock now and shipping quickly. 

The Baldwin team has been working on a project to expand the current Baldwin Estate “lock in box” preconfigured program.  The main goal was to expand Baldwin Estate most popular styles and finishes in a much quicker time frame and easy to order.

This new expanded program will go live Jan 19th. 

The new preconfigured program will include:

  • 25 knobs and 38 levers styles
  • Passage, privacy, half dummy and full dummy functions
  • Functions will include
    • Preselected rose style
    • 2-3/8” latch
    • Adaptor
    • Spindle for 1-3/8” – 1-3/4” thick door
    • Full lip strike
  • Various finishes depending on style
  • All sku’s will be on Baldwin Estate’s Quickship program – 5 days
  • All sku’s will be stocked in our KS distribution facility

Additionally, Jan 19th Baldwin is adding several new product to the existing Quickship program

  • Tremont Tubular Handleset
  • Hollywood Hills Tubular Handleset
  • 20” Minneapolis & Hollywood Hills Mortise Trims
    • Cylinders for 1-3/4” &  2-1/4” thick door available on Quickship program
    • Mortise locks 2-1/2” and 2-3/4” backset available on Quickship program
    • Thick door kits up to 2-1/4” available on Quickship program
  • The new Contemporary Entry Knob and Entry lever
  • Touchscreen Electronic deadbolt and Handleset combinations
  • Various finishes available of each sku

The new Quickship program will represent Baldwin’s 4000+ bestselling Estate styles and finishes.   All in stock and ready to go Jan 19th.  All sku’s ship in 5 days.

The next couple days I will be sending out hard copies of the new Quickship catalog and some flyers to put in your Baldwin binders.

Motivation Only Gets You Started!

Updates from Marvin Montgomery
Sales Tip #519 From The Sales Doctor
Motivation Only Gets You Started!

I saw an interesting quote by Jim Rohn who was an American Entrepreneur, Author and Motivational Speaker. “MOTIVATION is what gets you started. HABIT is what keeps it going.”

Self-Motivation is important; however, the habits that are developed are equally as important. So the question for the day is: Are you forming good or bad habits to sustain your motivation?

Waterworks Freight Update

I  just wanted to give a heads up to everyone that our warehouse is taking 5-7 business days to pack and ship standard ground orders right now. As an example, a PO received today, 12/10 would be in the queue tomorrow morning. That order could potentially ship as late as 12/21. We are also limiting the amount of expedited orders we can take and I ask that you please reach out to Melissa or myself with any potential requests. We are prioritizing parts for 2-day and overnight right now.

Additionally, Fed Ex is not delivering overnight/2-day within the same time frames as pre-holiday. A delivery to a residential address could be delayed as much as 1-3 days from the shipping method selected. Please let your sales teams know so that we can set realistic expectations on delivery and not disappoint clients. We hope for a return to more normal time frames after the holidays.

Thank you to everyone for your continued support. We certainly could not be as successful as we are without you out there on the front lines!

Bradley and Melissa
