Sticky Web, Inc.'s Newsletter to Shareholders Talks Patents

March 02, 2006 - Sticky Web, Inc.'s February Newsletter - SIKY News - talks about patents, the inventor and its business strategy.

The ongoing patent battles between NTP vs. RIM-BlackBerry(R) and Eolas Technologies, Inc. vs. Microsoft continue to make headline news. Another company, Burst Technology, Inc. (BRST.PK), quietly settled a patent infringement suit against Microsoft on March 11, 2005.

These three patent enforcement actions and settlements typify those that have been effectively brought by the individual inventor and small business against industry leaders. The recent success of small inventors, the licensing companies and the law firms that represent them, in many cases on a contingency fee basis, has leveled the playing field allowing the small inventors the same patent licensing benefits that large corporations have always enjoyed.

"The recent developments in patent enforcement and licensing have allowed the individual inventor and small business the opportunity to benefit from their inventions. It is our belief that we are in a position to further enhance shareholder value by taking every action possible to propel the benefits provided by our patent portfolio. We benefit by carving out a position in the OPT-IN e-mail industry and create business relationships in support of our growth that are protected by a portfolio of patents," said Thomas L. DiStefano III, CEO of Sticky Web, Inc.

The OPT-IN e-mail industry is made up of hundreds of companies that encompass small entrepreneurs to large public Companies. These companies provide e-mail management and marketing services that range from the fully automated ASP, in-house campaign management, and do-it-yourself software packages. In most cases OPT-IN e-mail management and marketing services include; targeting a specific segment, sending e-mail to that segment, creating a report on the status of the sent e-mail, and creating an action to reach specific goals set by the marketer.

"A patent allows its owner to prohibit others from making, using or marketing the patented invention. A patent is an opportunity to create a product or service that only the inventor may produce," stated Thomas L. DiStefano III, CEO of Sticky Web, Inc. "Many companies and inventors have not been able to get their inventions to market and have relied on licensing to derive value. We are going into this market from both sides, as an operator with the best solution and then as licensor protecting the solution," continued Mr. DiStefano.

The estimated market spending on permission-based, or OPT-IN, e-mail marketing has grown to over $7.3 billion in 2005 according to independent studies. The studies do not include revenues generated from illegal SPAM.
