"Landing on the Inc. 5000 list is a real honor," said Kevin McMurtry, Founder and CEO of Advanced Health Media. "I'm proud to have my Company recognized among so many innovative organizations and talented entrepreneurs, but I am most proud of AHM's consistent growth. Advanced Health Media has now made the list 4 times in 5 years and for that I must congratulate and thank all our employees for their dedication and unwavering commitment to continuous improvement."
As a New Jersey-based firm with a customer list comprised primarily of pharmaceutical marketers, McMurtry observed that, "The last few years have at times been difficult for our customers in the pharmaceutical industry and as a result, change and adaptation have been almost constant for AHM during the past few years. We chose to partner with our customers, at times making sacrifices and always focusing on delivering more value and helping our clients achieve their goals. We chose to define success one customer at a time and that choice has helped us retain nearly all our clients, win many new ones, and even grow our top and bottom line despite the pressures on our industry and our customers."
