Press Release Body = Santa Ana, CA – mUrgent (http://www.murgent.com), the only e-marketing solutions provider to combine email and wireless marketing, has named Tom Reese vice president of business development, according to company CEO, Boris Bugarski.

"Tom is a true veteran, and we are gratified that he has recognized mUrgent's potential in the permission-based e-marketing industry," said Bugarski. "His reputation for developing large, powerful distribution networks definitely puts us
on the map."

Reese is immediately responsible for identifying both traditional and alternative channels of distribution for EMPACT: Email and Wireless Marketing Manager - mUrgent's email and wireless marketing automation solution for SMBs. As part of
those efforts, he will recruit and train resellers and build a network of strategic partners in the automotive, cellular, food service, hospitality, insurance, healthcare and retail industries.

Reese's entrepreneurial career began 25 years ago when he started Steamax, an industrial steam cleaning business serving 150 WalMart stores in the Midwest. He expanded his business network to include oil field maintenance and later entered the
high tech industry as a regional sames manager for Belden Wire and Cable.

Reese was an integral part of the sales management team that made Ingram the world’s
leading distributor of Microsoft products. In 1986, he was recruited by Softsel and grew that software provider’s business from $50 million to $250 million annually with a team of 50 sales representatives. When Softsel merged with MicroAmerica in 1989, the new entity, Merisel, sales had reached over $1 billion in annual sales. Reese then decided to form his own consulting company, Exalt Marketing, with a team of more than 25 advertising, public relations and direct marketing specialists, to
help growing companies expand their national and global brand awareness.
