M2 recognized as one of the nation's fastest growing private companies with
three-year sales growth of 554.1%



STAMFORD, Conn., Aug. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- M2 Media Group announced it has been
named No. 467 in Inc. magazine's 28th annual Inc. 500 -- an exclusive listing
of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. In the state of
Connecticut, the company further ranked No. 5 overall and No. 1 in its
industry.

The Inc. 500 represents the most comprehensive look at the most important
segment of the economy -- America's independent-minded entrepreneurs. It has
helped companies such as Microsoft, Zappos, GoDaddy, Oracle, and hundreds of
other powerhouses to gain early exposure as members of this exclusive list.

"If you want to know which companies are going to change the world, look at
the Inc. 500," said Inc. editor Jane Berentson. "These are the most dynamic,
fast-growth companies in the nation, the ones finding innovative solutions to
problems, creating smart systems, and inventing products we soon discover we
can't live without. The Inc. 500 list is Inc. magazine's tribute to American
business ingenuity and ambition."

M2 Media Group is one of the premier subscription agencies in the magazine
publishing industry. The company offers over 1,000 magazine titles through its
direct-to-publisher supply network and fulfills millions of subscriptions
annually. M2 enables online retailers to sell subscriptions, loyalty programs
to offer magazines for miles or points, and business professionals to
subscribe to free industry publications. The company partners with the world's
leading magazine publishers, retailers and loyalty programs including Barnes &
Noble, Expedia, and Priority Club(R) Rewards.

"We are extremely honored to be ranked among Inc.'s fastest growing companies,
including the local recognition as Connecticut's top marketing firm," said
Michael Frank, President of M2 Media Group. "Our company is dedicated to
providing world-class magazine programs to retailers and reward programs, and
ultimately delivering reliable circulation to the magazine publishing
industry."

The 2009 Inc. 500 reported aggregate revenue of $18.4 billion -- up
significantly from last year's $13.7 billion -- and a median three-year growth
rate of 880.5 percent. The companies on this year's list are also responsible
for creating more than 55,000 jobs since their founding, making the Inc. 500
perhaps the best example of the impact private, fast-growing companies can
have on the overall U.S. economy.
