ikeGPS Adds Montroy as New Spike Distributor
- Reselling agreement brings Spike to Mountain States region, California -
BROOMFIELD, Colo.--ikeGPS (NZX: IKE) announces that it has added Montroy Sign
and Graphics Products as its latest distribution partner of Spike, a smart
laser measurement solution for signage site surveys and estimations.
Signal Hill, California-based Montroy operates 11 locations across Arizona,
California, Colorado, Nevada and Utah and carries more than 12,000 products
from top manufacturers in the industry, such as 3M, Avery, HP, Mimaki, GE and
SloanLED.
"Given that Montroy is the leading sign supply distributor in California and
the Western states, this new reseller relationship strengthens Spike
distribution in the region," says Jeff Ross, chief marketing officer of
ikeGPS.
By using Spike, sign and digital graphics professionals can quickly capture
accurate measurements of the width, height and area of signage locations from
a smartphone or tablet picture. A ladder, bucket truck and tape measure are
no longer required to create estimates, saving sign companies time and
overhead costs on a traditionally lengthy process.
The measurements of the sign or graphic location are saved with the Spike
photo and can be shared with customers, designers or production team to
create job estimates and design proofs, assess installation and complete
permit applications. If additional measurements are needed, users can refer
to their saved Spike photos at any time to make modifications. There's no
need to return to the site for further measurements or estimations.
"With Spike, our customers can easily cut the time they spend conducting site
surveys in half, which means they can turn around more estimates and win more
jobs," says Jim Wilson, president of Montroy. "Ultimately, Spike helps our
customers become more competitive in the market."
For more information about Spike, Montroy customers should contact their
local rep or the sales office at [email protected] or 1-800-666-8769,
