The Amazing Sticky Yard Digital Measuring System Announces Recession-Proof Estimating

LA MESA, CALIFORNIA - November 6, 2008 - Whether it is home improvement projects, remodeling work, or trying to beat out the competition on a tough estimating assignment, the Sticky Yard Digital Measuring System (www.StickyYard.com) reduces the measuring component of the project estimating phase from minutes and hours down to a matter of seconds!

Since using Sticky Yard is as easy as taking a photo, it can be used within a matter of minutes of purchasing. The cost savings in time, fuel, and manpower allows the user to put more money in their pocket. "The time saved, directly and significantly impacts the bottom line," says Eric Carlson, President of Stick Yard. "The user can do things with our system and software that are not possible with traditional measuring techniques saving time and return trips to the job site and negates the need to climb a ladder in many instances."

Survival of the Fittest

Business survivors know that in order to compete during tough economic times, they need to improvise and embrace a new way of doing things. Sticky Yard takes old, proven estimating strategies and simplifies them so that estimating a project is a breeze.

"We were competing on a project to replace siding on homes damaged by hurricanes," says Rob Duncan, Home Enhancements, Deltona, Florida. "Using Sticky Yard allowed us take the photos we needed, go back to the shop and run our estimates. We completed the estimate faster than the other contractors and were already on another project when we got word that we were awarded the contract."

Since sketches and loss or forgotten measurements require another trip to the job site, Sticky Yard is used by architects, general contractors, electricians, sign companies, carpenters, engineers, and many more.

Sticky Yard has been sold through numerous trade outlets as well as Home Depot Canada, Amazon.com, and most recently, Home Depot/US. What started with the use of construction pros is now available for anyone needing accurate measurements without much effort.

In addition to protecting your wallet, Sticky Yard protects the environment by providing a "green" product saving fuel by saving trips to the site; saving paper, and reducing mistakes.

Says blogger Dave of: www.bobvila.com, "Of all the tools I own, the tape measure is my number one nemesis. If I take a measurement twice, I get two different numbers. If I take the measurement three times, I'll get three different numbers. It's amazing. I'm like a magician when it comes to generating bad measurements. That's why Sticky Yard appeals to me."

Leo Faucher, Handy Man Magazine Member Test Group – "This is a great tool in doing home improvement estimates. I can get accurate measurements in a quarter of the time it used to take."

Dick Debartolo, The Gizmo Wizard says on TWIT.TV - http://www.twit.tv/dgw323 - "Sticky Yard makes taking the measure of the items in a photo a snap."
