New It Manager Is Named To Oversee The New Hes System And To Advance Hester's Internet Visibility

(Thursday, October 05, 2006) - With the new HES System proprietary estimating software and the extensive changes currently being made to redesign the Hester Painting & Decorating website – www.hesterdecorating.com – the Hester management team recognized the need to assign one person to concentrate on these tasks.

For the first time in its 39 year history, Hester Painting & Decorating will have an IT Manager in charge of all technology functions at the company. The most vital aspects of this new position will be to increase the visibility of the redesigned website and to oversee the roll out of the new HES System estimating software.

To fill this new role, Steve Hester, the president of Hester Painting & Decorating, was very pleased to not only be able to promote from within the organization but to also promote from within the family. Christopher Hester, the oldest member of the third generation in the family business, was chosen to fill this important role. Christopher attended University of Wisconsin - Whitewater majoring in Business Management, and he is currently pursuing the Contractors College Certification, which is offered nationally by the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America.

Hester Painting & Decorating was one of the first painting companies to establish an online presence over seven years ago, and it has maintained its competitive edge over the years with advanced online tools, like its Virtual Showroom. With the new website, the company has made a commitment to not only attract new visitors with its Virtual Showroom and Gallery of Craftsmanship, but it also wants these new visitors to continue returning to the website with new features that are updated regularly. Two of the new features are: Eye on Design with ideas and innovations from some of the top interior designers in the country and Ask The Professor with answers to paint and faux finish related questions.

Hester is also one of the trendsetters in the Chicago area with its proprietary estimating software, the HES System. This new estimating software consolidates decades of estimating experience into a much more simplified process for estimating painting and faux finishing projects.
