PROVIDES AWARD-WINNING WEB SITE SOLUTION TO INCREASE TRAFFIC AND SALES

Virginia Beach, Va. -Nov. 21, 2008-Channel Blade, a leading provider of Web site, lead generation, lead management and sales education solutions, announced today that the company will design a new Web site for Candlewood East Marina Club, using eXceleratePro-Channel Blade's award-winning Web site solution.

Based in Brookfield, Conn., Candlewood East Marina Club is a 240-slip marina in a ten-acre facility which also serves as a dealership for Cobalt Boats, Nautiques by Correct Craft and Malibu. Owned and operated by the O'Hara Family since 1983, Candlewood East Marina club has maintained a strong commitment to boating excellence and total customer satisfaction. The dealership was named in Boating Industry Magazine's Top 100 Dealers for four consecutive years.

Candlewood East Marina Club is committed to a comprehensive e-business strategy and chose to partner with Channel Blade to complement its successful brick-and-mortar business. The 25-year old dealership selected Channel Blade for its fully integrated Web site, lead generation and lead management solutions.

"The Channel Blade Team lives and breathes Web services," said Mitch O'Hara Jr., vice president at Candlewood East Marina Club.

Channel Blade is the leading provider in Web services for the industry and we are confident that we will grow our business through this partnership."

"The dynamic, informative and easy-to-maintain Web site will more effectively engage prospects, increase traffic and generate leads in support of Candlewood East Marina Club's sales efforts," said Jon Lintvet, chief executive officer at Channel Blade. "We are honored that Candlewood selected Channel Blade as its partner in this endeavor."

"As most of our prospects research their purchase on the Web, our goal is to further increase our visibility online to attract more potential buyers," explains O'Hara.
