Your Ordering System Was Built for Orders. Not Every Sales Opportunity.
Your dealers shouldn't have to choose between selling your products and working through a complicated ordering process.
Your factory ordering system plays an essential role. It ensures products are configured correctly, specifications are complete, and orders are ready for manufacturing.
But creating an estimate for a homeowner is a different job.
A salesperson visiting a customer needs to present product options, calculate pricing, answer questions, and deliver a professional proposal—ideally before leaving the property.
They shouldn't have to complete every step of a production ordering process just to find out whether the customer is interested.
Not every estimate becomes an order. Why make every estimate go through the same process as one?
With WindSketch, dealers can focus on estimating and selling first, then complete the factory ordering process once the customer is ready to buy.
A competitive advantage
When Your Products Take Longer to Quote, Your Competitors Get an Opening.
Don't let quoting friction become a competitive disadvantage for your brand.
Imagine one of your dealers sitting with a homeowner who needs eight replacement windows.
The dealer wants to recommend your products, but getting a price means returning to the office, navigating a complex ordering system, and completing multiple configuration steps.
Meanwhile, a competing product can be quoted in minutes.
The customer doesn't see the complexity behind your system. They only see which company delivers a professional estimate first.
WindSketch helps your dealers move from measurements to professional estimates while the sales conversation is still happening.
Because making your products easier to sell gives your dealers one more reason to recommend them.

The partnership
Let's Build a Better Dealer Experience Together.
The WindSketch Factory Partnership Program brings manufacturers and dealer networks together around a more efficient sales process.
Depending on the partnership, the program can include:
- Coordinated manufacturer product and pricing configuration.
- Special access arrangements for participating dealers.
- Assisted onboarding and rollout planning.
- Pilot programs with selected dealer groups.
- Opportunities for future integrations and coordinated promotions.
We work with each manufacturer to define the right starting point, evaluate adoption, and develop a scalable rollout strategy.
Early partners can also help shape how the program evolves to meet the needs of their dealer networks.

Will WindSketch replace our existing factory ordering system?
No. WindSketch is designed to complement your existing systems. Dealers can create customer estimates in WindSketch and continue placing confirmed orders through your established factory ordering process.

Yes. WindSketch supports estimating workflows involving different manufacturers, allowing dealers to work with the brands they sell from a connected workspace.
How is pricing structured for participating dealers?
We offer partnership arrangements tailored to the manufacturer's network, anticipated rollout, and program requirements. Our team can discuss available options during an introductory meeting.
Can we start with a smaller group of dealers?
