As Amazon continues its rapid growth, the Channel Bakers team has also grown to keep up with client demand. In 2018 the company further expanded its service offerings with a new creative and digital departments and bolstered its executive leadership team with key hires.
To help manage this expansion, Channel Bakers named Lionel Garcia as President early in 2018 to strengthen their existing infrastructure and establish a firm foundation for future growth and scale through process improvement. With more than 19 years of leadership experience in eCommerce, Garcia was most recently a lead consultant at Sprosty Network where he primarily worked with clients on digital strategy, merchant processes, and retail best practices. Prior to that, he served as the head merchant in an omni-channel retail environment where he managed a $1.6 billion portfolio and gained first hand knowledge of how digital marketing impacts all sales channels.
In addition to team growth and leadership, Garcia’s focus has been building new capabilities and efficiencies to better serve clients. This includes the launch of a new creative department lead by the newly hired director of creative services, Brad Malm, an award-winning graphic designer with more than 15-years-experience in digital and print media. The creative team has created over 600 image galleries, Brand stores, Custom landing pages, detail page optimization, and A+ premium content pages since launch.
Other key 2018 hires included Ken Curry as Director of Strategic Accounts as well as Chris Geiger who will be leading Channel Baker’s engineering team. Geiger’s team is responsible for the technology that not only automates analysis of Amazon provided data, but integrates it with the strategy and creative teams at Channel Bakers to provide a unique, full service solutions suite.
“We are excited about our future being an Amazon agency partner as they continue to expand advertising products within their console and gain share in the advertising industry. As we continue to grow and invest in our people and technology we will be able to generate more actionable insights and develop innovative tactics that ultimately deliver the best possible strategy to optimize results for the brands we work with,” said Kreitzer.
In early 2019, Channel Bakers also expanded its presence in the Southern California region with a new 13,000-square-foot office in Anaheim Hills, which is triple the size of the former space. The company also recently named SourceCode Communications its PR Agency of Record to help the company further solidify its presence as a leader in the Amazon Ad space.

You are welcomeVent vs Dynacord?
There is no "vs". The Vent destroys the Dynacord. It would be like Ivory vs the Korg M1 piano sound.
...and this is an understatement, believe it or not.
As an owner of a Ventilator and a Dynacord CLS-222, I agree with the above posts. Rather profound statements, as the Dynacord was the gold standard of Leslie sims for many years. Today however, while they both fall in the general category of "Leslie simulators," this is where any meaningful comparison ends.
P.S. Anyone wanna buy a Dynacord?
It's interesting, didn't Danny Federici use a Dynacord? And it became part of his signature sound with the E Street Band.
So if the new guy uses a Vent or real Leslie, it will be perceived as inferior.
An instance of a bad imitation becoming desirable like Hammonds and Rhodes.
Danny F switched to the RT20 on his last tour.
Funny that he uses the two Alesis boards as nothing but controllers... but one of the things he controls is a QSR!
I'm more surprised by the Behringer.
I wonder if Danny's tech put a lighter spring in the RT20 where you push the pedal to change speed? If you are switching by hand, as it looks like danny was doing based on where the pedal was positioed, its pretty hard to push down by hand. At least relative to a half moon switch.
Me too. I mean for the money they took in and it was a lot, the gear does not match up. He had such a good ear and to not use a Leslie and that shitty Behringer, RT20 stuff does not make sense? I know Charlie Giordano uses a Motif and a Nord on the side.
There are many musicians who are non-technical and only care that the gear works and serves the purpose.
Nice reading, Outkaster! Do you have scans of the first part of the article as well?
sure let me see if I can post it when I go home.
I saw this at the Guitar Center in Buffalo, NY. I had a gig that day and was checking out the keyboard department there. They took a helicopter with his doctor to Indianapolis from Sloan Kettering in the city. Its funny the first two pictures are of him when he came to play his last show before he died. He did half a set. He was real sick and worried about his left hand because the cancer had spread to his brain and he was weak. He came through with flying colors though. It is too bad this article had to come out after he died. I have close ties to NJ so this was a tough day.
I just dusted off this relic...
(do not even remember what year it is).
I did not have an hammond organ at that time (I did not have a Speakeasy preamp neither).
But I did not remember this toy sounded so good (considering it's a almost 25/30 years old analog device) compared to some modern dedicated clonewheels internal rotary simulations.
I thought the CLC-222 was great for it's time...but I did have level/distortion problems with it... I could never get enough output from it, and when I pushed the output the red light would turn on and it would distort in a not good way. I would suspect the Vents were better with that and the sim. just based on what I read and heard others using it live, though I have never owned one myself.Here’s a round-up of some of the hottest nightspots in city and downtown areas.
