EDITOR’S NOTE INSIGHT FOR BUSINESS ON THE RISE EDITORIAL STAFF John Unrein | Senior Editor Joanie Spencer | Managing Editor Bob Sims | Staff Writer Timmy Trabon | Online Editor Cayce Richardson | Senior Designer SALES STAFF Troy Ashby Associate Publisher/Sales Lily O’Kane Classified Sales Representative PUBLISHING STAFF Charles S. Sosland Chairman L. Joshua Sosland Vice-chairman Mark Sabo President & Publishing Director John Sonderegger Publisher Melanie Hepperly Vice-President & Chief Financial Officer Don Keating Audience Development Director Sadowna Conarroe Design Services Manager Steve Piatt Classified Designer Dana Holt Manager of Directories & Databases Carrie Fluegge Director of On-line Advertising & Promotions Nora Wages Advertising Manager Sharon Alexander Advertising Materials Coordinator Marj Potts Digital Systems Analyst Becky White Manager of Advertising Design Judy Arnone Circulation Manager Jon Hall Director of E-Business Tare Torres Promotions Manager See You in Schaumburg October is an exciting time for the bakery business, and more so this year because of the new All Things Baking show (Oct. 2-4) and the RPIA Group’s Business of Baking for Beginners seminar (Oct. 1-2). Both will be held in Schaumburg, IL, a suburb of Chicago. I’m particularly eager because I will be speaking at both events. I’ll be sharing highlights from The Baking Channel’s ongoing Discovering America’s Bakeries video series, exclusively on our website, www.bakingbuyer.com. The best thing about our video series is the authenticity of the valuable insights that are provided by bakery owners just like you. As Rick Crawford, RPIA’s managing partner, likes to say: “Bakery owners drop great ideas like raindrops.” So, there’s no better time than today to learn more about what other bakers are dealing with and how they are responding to shifts in the economy and emerging consumer purchasing trends. Looking for new product ideas? Look no further than The Baking Channel, which you might consider to be a 24-7 hotline for hot new ideas. And make sure to attend the shows in Schaumburg. The dividends are enormous, and you can’t afford to wait.
