FIRST-EVER LIST OF THE 5,000 FASTEST-GROWING BUSINESSES RELEASED

The ADAM Group Ranks No. 2,336 on the 2007 Inc. 5,000 With Three-Year Sales Growth of 150.9%

NEW YORK, August 23, 2007 - Inc. today ranked The ADAM Group (official company name of TAG Marketing & Recruiting) on its first-ever Inc. 5,000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country. The Inc. 5,000, an extension of Inc. magazine's annual Inc. 500 list, catches many businesses that are too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy. "The Inc. 5,000 provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy - the entrepreneurial part," said Inc. 5,000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. "The expansion of the list has allowed us to tell the stories of larger companies, older companies, and a wealth of companies in industries like Manufacturing and Construction that are underreported in the business media."

The ADAM Group has seen outstanding growth in the past three years, primarily through it's TAG Marketing and Recruiting™ division, which serves the home care and hospice industry. A contributing factor to the company's growth is the rapid growth of the industry itself, as the need for home care and hospice services continues to increase with the aging of the country. Through constant innovation and the use of advanced technology, TAG Marketing and Recruiting provides breakthrough solutions to bring clients better results than their traditional marketing and recruiting methods.

The 2007 Inc. 5,000, as revealed online at www.inc.com, reported median revenue of $9.4 million and median three-year growth of 140 percent. Complete information on this year's Inc. 5,000, can be found at http://www.inc.com/inc5000.
