I would highly recommend Jim to any company or organization that is looking for a hard working talented Sales Person. Jim has the ability to build 'GREAT' relationships with prospects and continues that trusted relationship long after they become customers. Jim always understood the opportunity from both a strategic and executive level and used that in developing a sales strategy that was effective for both the internal sales team and the prospect. In conclusion: Great Person, Great Sales Person and will/would be an asset to any organization.
