I worked for Lincoln as a Sales Consultant from April 2013 to October 2014. During this period I have not learned more about professional conduct and communication with business customers and prospects as I have under Lincoln's leadership. Always leading from the front, his enthusiasm and tireless dedication to the team fostered an environment of integrity and teamwork that will last long beyond his tenure. In meetings and interactions with prospective customers there is no one better to have involved. His understanding of the sales process, people, and experience with various roles in Staples allowed us to gain opportunities that would have otherwise been impossible. Lincoln always had a well thought out strategy. In whatever is Lincoln's next calling you can expect the same passion and dedication. I would highly recommend him to be a member of anyone's team.

I have the pleasure of working with Lincoln on several occasions. He is very professional and has led the charge to convert good retail customers into better contract customers. The feedback that I have received from one customer in particular praised his attention to detail and high level of service. He is an excellent communicator and made me feel like I was a valued member of the process in each occasion. I highly recommend Lincoln.
