iFulfill.com President Paul Purdue Launches Blog on Balancing Work and Family

MAUMEE, Ohio, May 9, 2005 -- Paul Purdue, founder and president of iFulfill.com (http://www.ifulfill.com), a leading e-retail order fulfillment house for medium and small online businesses, has started a blog (http://www.ifulfill.com/weblog/) about finding balance between career and family life.

"I'll share my experiences as the head of a rapidly growing company, who also manages to maintain a rich family life," he writes in his first iFulfill.com blog post. "And I'll engage in dialogue with others in growing companies so we can learn from each other. After all, what good is knowledge and experience unless it is shared?"

His goal, he says, is to prove "that you can run a multi-million dollar Internet company and have a life." Married with two children, Purdue is the Wolf Cub den leader of Cub Scout Pack 703, where he also serves as the Popcorn Kernel (with a "K"). He says he'll get up at 3 a.m. to get iFulfill.com work done in quiet solitude, but he won't miss the Daddy Daughter Dance or a Pinewood Derby race.

Purdue, who was a solid C-minus student in the six-and-a-half years he spent getting his four-year degree, got the entrepreneurial bug early and was already running his first successful company when he graduated from Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti, MI.

The Paul Purdue blog-launch coincides with a redesign of iFulfill.com's website and an expansion of its warehouse and office facilities to accommodate the e-retail fulfillment house's steady growth.
