Strategy First, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Silverstar Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSTR), today announced the
official launch of their online store at www.strategyfirst.com.
Today's announcement further demonstrates Strategy First's commitment to
growing its business through online distribution. Strategy is making their
widely popular and successful back catalogue available online along with
additional new releases. Additionally, Strategy will aggressively expand
their digital download catalogue to include many classic strategy
favorites.
Some of the unique features of the store include:·
-- Free Trials
-- Digital Download
-- Links to Game Forums and other related content
-- A wide variety of game screen shots
-- Continued addition of new Strategy games in digital and CD formats
The introduction of online sales will be accompanied by a robust marketing
campaign. "Our online e-marketing efforts will strengthen our business both
through direct sales as well as increase traffic in the retail segment of
our business. We recognize the need for both a strong online and retail
presence in order to achieve our overall goals," said Don McFatridge,
President of Strategy First, Inc.
"Our online store will give Gamers an opportunity to play some classic
Strategy First titles, such as the 'Jagged Alliance' and 'Disciples'
series," said McFatridge. "We strive to guarantee that Strategy Gamers will
get exactly what they're looking for in a strategy game, and our online
store now guarantees easy availability of that quality gaming experience."
"One of our major goals upon acquisition of Strategy First two months ago,
was to build a robust online sales presence. Fee-based digital downloadable
games have proven enormously popular particularly in the casual games
space. We believe that this new e-store will have the same consumer
acceptance among more hard-core gamers. We anticipate a creative
e-marketing campaign to our over 100,000 registered users with special
offers to encourage the trial and use of the e-store. We will also actively
work to increase our emailing list so that these offers will be available
to the broadest possible audience," said Clive Kabatznik, CEO of
Silverstar.
Online shoppers can purchase Strategy First games by visiting
