<p><strong>How much is a good first impression worth?</strong><br />
Which one would you want on your front yard?</p>
<p align="left"><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/sidebyside.jpg"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-25" title="sidebyside" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/sidebyside-300x225.jpg" alt="Cheap stick in the ground sign or a nice big hanging sign post?" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>Probably 4 out of 5 sellers would prefer a hanging sign post vs. a cheap looking push in stake system.</p>
<p>I use these signs posts because:</p>
<ul>
<li>They look good. Gets listing off to a good start</li>
<li>No rust. Stainless steel fittings</li>
<li>No fading or yellowing</li>
<li>Stand straight and won&#8217;t bend over</li>
<li>Can be put into very hard ground</li>
<li>Clips lock tight so wind doesn&#8217;t blow sign loose.</li>
<li>Easy to install with just a big hammer</li>
<li>Economical. Can be used many times and still look fresh and new.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Learn from my bad experiences.</strong></p>
<p>Don&#8217;t let rust make you look bad.<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-large;"><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/rustedclip.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-27" title="rustedclip" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/rustedclip-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> <span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-large;"><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/ruststreaks2.jpg"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-32" title="ruststreaks" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/ruststreaks2-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></span></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Make sure the clips and fitting are stainless steel</p>
<p>The locking clips keep signs secure even with high winds.</p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-large;"><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/stainlessclip1.jpg"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-33" title="stainlessclip" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/stainlessclip1-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></span></p>
<p>The Power Stake is solid steel with a point so you can hammer it in far enough even in the hardest soils. The tip doesn&#8217;t get smushed or distorted which allows the tube to slide on and off even after being used 20 times.</p>
<p><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/powerstake1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-38" title="powerstake" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/powerstake1-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> <a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/powerstaketip1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-39" title="powerstaketip" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/powerstaketip1-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Other systems get smushed and bent which messes up with the tube sliding over the stake.</p>
<p><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/bent-stake.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-40" title="bent stake" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/bent-stake-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> <a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/smushed-stake.jpg"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-41" title="smushed stake" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/smushed-stake-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Other systems use different materials for the end caps which then yellow and look like garbage.</p>
<p><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/yellowcap2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-45" title="yellowcap2" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/yellowcap2-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-46" title="yellowcap" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/yellowcap-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Other signs just don&#8217;t stand up tall. Usually the problem is that the stake isn&#8217;t able to penetrate deep enough in order to be solid. Other times it&#8217;s the lawn service people who remove the sign and then stick it back in crooked.<br />
Here&#8217;s a sampling of signs I&#8217;ve seen in the past few days while I was out showing homes.</p>
<p><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/leaningsign31.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-48" title="leaningsign3" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/leaningsign31-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> <a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/tiltedsign.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-49" title="tiltedsign" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/tiltedsign-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/leaningsign.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-50" title="leaningsign" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/leaningsign-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> <a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/doublestake.jpg"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-51" title="doublestake" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/doublestake-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Can easily be installed in a minute with only a big hammer to drive the stake into the ground.<br />
No screws needed. Has an ingenious key system that quickly locks in the cross piece.</p>
<p><a href="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/key.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-55" title="key" src="http://damngoodsignpost.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/key-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li>Get the sign up immediately after taking the listing.</li>
<li>No waiting for installation.</li>
<li>No mix up with getting it installed in the right location.</li>
<li>Install it where you want no matter how hard the ground is.</li>
<li>The power stake will go where other signs won&#8217;t.</li>
<li>Very economical.</li>
<li>Can be used over and over so the cost per listing is very small.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>The impression you will make is priceless.</strong></p>
