NORTH AMERICAN DECK AND RAILING ASSOCIATION (NADRA) MEMBERS TO BENEFIT FROM DECKTOOLS DECK DESIGN SOFTWARE

DeckTools Provides Huge Discount Incentive to NADRA Members

Quakertown, Pa., August 14, 2007, North American Deck and Railing Association (NADRA) announces that effective immediately, NADRA members may purchase DeckTools 1.2 at the deeply discounted price of $1,095. Included in the license are all software updates for 2007, plus the major release scheduled for later this year "DeckTools 2007". Richard Oesterreicher, president of DeckTools, states "The special pricing is offered for a limited time as an added value to NADRA membership. As a Charter Member of NADRA, DeckTools is committed to the strong growth in membership and benefits of the association." The retail price of DeckTools is $1,495 USD.

Michael Beaudry, Executive Vice President of NADRA said "DeckTools allegiance to NADRA is raising the level of professionalism in our industry and increasing NADRA's membership. The decision to join NADRA is easy when a deck contractor can join NADRA and get DeckTools for less than the retail price of DeckTools alone. We are very excited."

One of NADRA's main goals is to educate the deck contractor so that they can provide the best possible product and experience for the consumer. "Helping our members to work on their businesses versus in their businesses, benefits the entire deck and railing industry." Beaudry says.

DeckTools software provides the deck contractor with the tools to design and close sales faster. DeckTools enables the designer to easily present a computer rendered 3-D design that incorporates the actual name brand products and finishes desired by the customer, helping sell more upgrades. The materials and labor expenses are tracked in real-time, and a full color, professional proposal may be produced with the click of a button. Oesterreicher explains, "This software has helped many of our users double their sales close rate. By making this software available to NADRA members we are doing our part to increase deck and materials sales across the industry."
