Education Division Updates

Long past time to put up a NEW POST.

A lot has been happening in the Education Division since our last update.

We've discovered that we love Pinterest and will be utilizing it in many unusual ways over the remainder of the 2013. You can look forward to at least one more contest this year and SECRET BOARDS. -- I think that the Secret Boards are actually going to give us a way to post photos of our Baby Lock Machines with the PRICES. Up until now we've been restricted on open web postings, and needed to utilized our passcode protected system. Since these Secret Boards would only be accessed by our controlled list, I think that we CAN DO THIS.  We are verifying the set-up and will send an email to everyone once we are ready to go. It will so amazing to have a place that I can easily upload a photo, show the School Price, then (and here's a super feature) if you want to see the spec sheet, all you'll need to do is tap the photo. MORE information instantly. Pinterest Technology is USEFUL!!!

The Education Division has also added some new Product Lines. For those of you that have said over and over that you can't get good Culinary Equipment, please know that WE heard you. To get you started, we've picked up the Swiss Kuhn Rikon Products. I can't remember when I had so much fun picking out cutlery for my own kitchen. Schools & Educators in our database we're emailed out a VERY special offer this past week. The deadline to use this offer is different than most. We are allowing you to place HOLD FOR NEXT BUDGET YEAR temporary orders. In essence, you can tell us what you are requesting, we'll plan on a delivery date at Summer Conferences or a ship date to coincide with your back-to-school timeline. If your PO is not authorized, we'll void the temporary HOLD and not ship anything to you. If everything works out like you plan, your school with get a great discount and you'll have new kitchen items for FALL. Win-Win.

NOTE: If there is anyone reading this blog that is not in our Education Division Database, please send your request to schools@bsewinn.com -- We'll let you know if you qualify to be added and details about the process.

The Education Division is currently looking at 2-3 more Culinary & Houseware lines. We'll send out a catalogue or flyers once I've had time to make a final decision. If any of you have a FAVORITE product line that you would like to see us carry, please send me an email. We might be able to find a way to get Schools & Educators an established discount on those products also. We'll try.

Another New Product Line that we've added is the Reliable products. This is professional Irons, Presses, Steamers, Boards, Industrial Sewing & Serger Equipment, Uberlights and more. There will be more blog details on this soon.

3D Printers. Yes, this is new for us. Yes, our selection is unique. Yes, I think you should definitely consider adding one or two 3D printers to your classroom. One that heats plastic to form designs and One that extrudes soft, mushy food products. Join us for the adventure.

The Education Division is expanding the machine line also. We LOVE BABY LOCK!!! Make no mistake about that. BUT, for those of you that our outside our authorized shipping area, we know that we aren't meeting your Classroom Needs.

We've already added the 16-Needle Bravo and yes, I must admit that it has some features that you won't find on the Baby Lock 10-Needle. "SOME FEATURES" is also an understatement. You can email me at schools@bsewinn.com for pricing, packages, and training information. -- For regular sewing & embroidery machines (that aren't Baby Lock), we've chosen Juki & Janome to begin our expansion. Your FEEDBACK will be appreciated.

As most of you are aware, the Education Division is officially staffed by one person. There are several hard working people, in other BSI departments, that assist along the way but for those of you that need information quickly about these new product lines, we will all do our best to quickly get them to you. BUT... patience on your part will be appreciated--and rewarded with discounts and specials along the way. Everyone at B-Sew Inn wants your classroom experience to be the very best possible and we work towards that objective everyday of the year. Let us know WHAT you NEED & WANT, and we'll see if there is any way possible to assist.
