Bio
Christopher Lynch
Jim and I worked together at Global Internetworking (now GTT) and he consistently met or surpassed quota. Jim's success was based on a work ethic that was second to none along with a rare blend of technical knowledge and people skills. Jim not only managed (and closed) large and complex deals for Fortune 500 companies, but he also brought several new logos in the door as well. I would highly recommend Jim for any sales or sales management positions moving forward.
Hank Rausch
Jim was our account rep while I worked at Artel. During 2+ years he provided telecommunications circuits for us for our State Department and DoD contracts. All the circuits he provided were provisioned on time and worked to spec. Alot of these links were located in third world countries and in addition to the difficulties of the environment, they often involved many providers and the technical challenges of communicating though many providers were complex.He knows his field, he is customer focussed, and he is an honest fellow. I knew he was a great account rep, but I didn't appeciate HOW good he was until I changed jobs and had to deal with other providers who could not seem to provide circuits on time or to spec, and had many technical problems. I wwholeheartedly recommend him.
