Birmingham, AL - September 3, 2008: Birmingham-based MedjetAssist today announced the development of a new, in-house marketing department to spearhead the company's advertising functions. MedjetAssist, the nation's leading emergency medical evacuation membership program, has experienced substantial growth for each of the last two years. It is on the heels of this growth that MedjetAssist now launches its full-service, in-house marketing department, which will direct all new advertising initiatives, while continuing to work in cooperation with an outside advertising firm on interactive projects. As part of this expansion, Jennifer Tidmore today joins MedjetAssist as Marketing Manager, under the direction of Will McKee, Director of Marketing. Jennifer comes to MedjetAssist with a wealth of experience in the Birmingham-area advertising field, having worked for some of the market's most well-known creative shops, including one of the largest agencies in the Southeast. "In the interest of staying ahead of the curve in the ever-evolving travel market," says Roy Berger, President and CEO of MedjetAssist, "we are very excited to be expanding the in-house marketing staff at MedjetAssist." This new development comes as part of a larger company-wide expansion, which has recently included a new office in Birmingham, AL, an online press center (www.medjet.com/presscenter) and the launch of The World Wide Will (http://worldwidewill.medjet.com), the MedjetAssist travel blog that includes guest contributors from Rudy Maxa to Johnny Jet.
