About Jim
For years people have asked me to write a book to catalog the sum of my experiences, insights and wisdom. Anyone who knows me would tell you that it will take a LOT of pages to catalog what I’ve accumulated in a lifetime in sales and marketing. Laying it out topically here allows me to focus on what people value most, “chapters at a time”.
For those that don’t know me… I began my career in the early computer / video game industry, selling Atari in high school moving on to the Commodore 64, etc. in the mid-to-late 80’s, ultimately joining the team that launched Sega Genesis and turned it into a billion $$$ business worldwide. A launches later I took time away to finish my MBA and began consulting. Since then I’ve had the good fortune to launch or help launch companies in e-commerce, personal electronics, industrial technology, nano-technology, AI and more.
Aside from commercial pursuits I’ve had the good fortune to teach numerous students marketing and entrepreneurship at Northeastern University in Boston, mentor dozens more in sales, marketing, communication & leadership.
I hope the pages here help you to realize your dreams in business, whether as an entrepreneur starting a company or an executive helping to elevate someone else’s.
