Business Travelers Agree That A Travel Steamer Is the First Item Packed In Their Luggage Suitcase

Online, March 18, 2010 (Newswire.com) - For the business traveler, a common bugbear is how even with the most meticulous packing, shirts and trousers come out of a suitcase looking like they had never been ironed in the first place. Trying to secure an iron and an ironing board in a hotel can be a frustrating experience, especially if you arrive after the housekeeping staff has left for the evening and you have an early meeting. Turning up for an important meeting in creased clothing does not create a good impression; first impressions are paramount, and whilst travel mishaps can be explained, what impression does this give to a potential new client? A lack of attention to detail, totally unprepared, messy.... These are not traits that inspire confidence in new clients, and will mean you have to work twice as hard to close the deal. The only way to ensure that you look as good as you would in your office is to invest in a portable travel steamer. You can then be sure that you will never be caught out when away from home.

The embarrassment experienced is all that it takes to send weary businessmen looking for a local store to try to buy a travel iron or travel steamer. However, in a strange city finding a store which stocks any model, let a lone a good one, can be a nightmare. Business trips often do not afford the luxury of much spare time and certainly not enough time to search for the best model for the job. After all what is the point of buying a model which cannot fully remove creases and wrinkles? You are back firmly where you started minus a bundle of dollars, and still have to keep your suit firmly buttoned closed for the duration of the trip. Fortunately, help is at hand with travelsteamer.org whose owners are keen to complete the research so that you don't have to. Not only will they give the benefits and disadvantages of the most popular models on the market, they can even offer video demonstrations on how to use some of the models; particularly useful if you are not good at reading instruction manuals.

"I hate not to have a perfectly ironed shirt when away from home, which is why it is the first thing I pack when preparing for a trip" says Bill Bailey, website manager for Travelsteamer.org. He goes on to recount a couple of bad experiences his colleagues had when travelling on business, which prompted him to buy his own and set up the website to review the best products on the market. "I wanted to highlight the advantages of carrying a travel steamer and make the whole process of choosing the best model a walk in the park" he continued. Helping those who were challenged for time has brought great rewards. I get regular emails thanking me for the reviews and only last week I received an email from a visitor to the site who wished he had found out about them sooner. The feedback has helped him with other ventures to provide the business traveler with a more comprehensive advisory service.

It is from feedback such as this that spurs him forward, and development plans are underway for the website to increase the range of reviewed models to give a much broader comparison, with a full price analysis and 5-star rating system to make choosing the best model more comprehensive and increase the client experience. Expect bigger and better things in the near future.
