About James Potter

James learned how to use LinkedIn hands-on, not by reading a book, but by playing around with it in his role as a corporate sales director and seeing what worked in real life.

This enabled him to pull in over £10 million in sales whilst he was in corporate life and eventually persuaded him to launch a business: The Network Coach Limited but he had earned the moniker of “The Linked In Man” way before that!

He has almost 30 years of experience in accountancy, business development, consulting, networking and selling.

Some of his key credentials:

  • Fifteen years of experience in training people in LinkedIn and networking
  • Keynote addresses to conference audiences numbering in the thousands
  • Contributions to three books so far, with more on the way
  • Professional coffee drinker
James specialises in sharing relevant experiences of LinkedIn and networking for sales, making you think about LinkedIn and networking in a different light and equipping you to drive success.
