James D Mitchell

St Louis MO USA

ABOUT ME: I'm James D Mitchell, also known in my industry (Telecom) as The HelpMeCableGuy. I'm in sales for the company ShowMeCables; we dominate the cable world--just check out our reviews below!

@HOME I'm married and credit my passion and work ethic to my beautiful wife Tanya and my daughter Kaitlyn... they are the reason and my motivation for everything I do. I enjoy movies and playing sports-- I played roller hockey in college and I still play hockey and basketball weekly (or maybe weakly!) today.

@WORK I help clients fill Connectivity/Telecom needs. I specialize in consulting with IT and C-level managers in structuring large projects to help get funding approval, so my client (and their department) ultimately succeed. I focus on Custom Cables & OEM Production runs for some of the top electronics manufacturers, data centers, and installation companies in the world.

My specialty is finding unique solutions, structuring major deals, hunting new "whales" and retaining our top clients. I do this by being ethical, well-studied, hard working, and being a friendly strategic advisor... and I love what I do!

WHAT SETS ME APART: There's a huge difference between overall cost vs lowest price... And someone only recommending you the latter probably isn't watching the former for you!

That's the difference between a rookie sales rep trying to make a sale, and a consultant like myself. I know that a slightly higher price in one area is fine if it leads to a much lower cost in another.

With this overall view in mind, I can recommend the lowest cost option-even though this small part of the project might not be the lowest price as compared to another vendor quoting the "cheapest product" only. I quote lowest COST not CHEAPEST price. Why?

Because sometimes cheap becomes very expensive!

For this... My clients love me and my competitors hate me!

Oh, and I've written a coffee table (picture) book titled "The Cable Guide: Your Hookup & Connection" available on Lulu books.

It'd make my day if you'd connect with me on Twitter (I tend to dig inspirational and Yes! attitude quotes), or on LinkedIN (for biz).
