Beating the Heat: firstSTREET focuses on Cool Gadgets

firstSTREET launches new site category to help customers stay cool during the summer. With its new addition, firstSTREET's cool gadget offerings become even cooler.

(PRWEB) June 15, 2006 -- FirstSTREET, a Top 300 Internet Retailer and catalog company, has announced the launch of a new consumer category on its website (www.firststreetonline.com). The company known for bringing unique, practical gadgets to online and offline early adopters is expanding into products that help consumers keep cool at home, at the office and outdoors. Its “Keeping Cool” category features an assortment of innovative products that are sure to bring comfort during the “dog days of summer”. According to Daniel Yonts, firstSTREET’s Manager of Internet Marketing, this category is a continuation of firstSTREET’s ongoing strategy to “bring innovative solutions to real-life problems. The heat is definitely a problem for many of our customers at work, in their home and while entertaining outdoors.”

This theme is clarified by Chris Fawcett, firstSTREET’s Vice President of Marketing and Catalog. “Staying comfortable is very important to our customers and, during the summer, staying cool becomes especially important. With rising energy costs, many are trying to save money by using their air conditioners less and they're looking to us to find alternate ways of keeping cool in the summer heat. Our merchandisers are always looking for the latest in unique and innovative ways to keep our customers comfortable.”

Products initially featured in firstSTREET’s new category include portable cooling devices that can be taken to work or used at home, as well as cooling and misting systems for outdoors. Also featured are gadgets that help cars stay cool during the summer, pillows that keep customers cool at night and portable air conditioning. The overwhelming majority of products in its “Keeping Cool” category are affordably priced for those seeking some comfort in the hot days ahead.

So far, according to Yonts, “the personal cooling gadgets have been the most popular products in this category. People like having the ability to find some relief from the heat when visiting a theme park or doing other outdoor activities. Cubicle dwellers also like these products – since it appears many offices aren’t always generous when it comes to turning up the AC.”
