With his extensive experience in developing and growing organizations, Woodruff joins Furniture.com to manage the company's current growth and evolution into new lines of business.
Woodruff will have primary responsibility for driving results for Furniture.com clients and
new business development. In the last twelve months, Furniture.com has grown dramatically, adding clients from outside the company's strong base of furniture retailers. Woodruff will oversee this growth while adding new lines of business that leverage the company's strength - building successful ecommerce programs for retailers with complex business needs.

Bricks and mortar retailers with difficult e-commerce challenges continue to turn to Furniture.com to capture this opportunity," said Carl Prindle, president and Chief Executive Officer of Furniture.com. "Our growth reflects our ability to help our customers monetize this trend. Morgan's track record for scaling organizations through times of significant growth will be a tremendous asset to the company and our clients as we continue to evolve."
Prior to joining Furniture.com, Woodruff served as US General Manager and Senior Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Owera, Inc., a telecommunications software company that specializes in Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and router device design. Woodruff was also Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Global IP Sound, where he was responsible for executing new business contracts that drove the company's market cap from $75M to $250M.
