To whom it may concern,

My name is Jordan Wayne Smith and I am a 2007 graduate of Michigan State

University with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication, emphasizing

interpersonal and mass media communication with a specialization in public

relations.

I have lived and worked in Chicago for the past seven years. I have spent

the last year and eight months working in different areas of the automotive

software industry. I have a strong background in the consultative sector

with account management, client relations, and administrative tasks.

Specializing in project management with regard to business develpment,

maintenance, and branding. That includes utilizing campaign specific

marketing plans and media to increase client web traffic, sourcing specific

customer types, and creating and editing content of their website.

Starting in May 2012, I have been a part-time consultant for E-mini

Executors, a futures trading firm that specializes in educating aspiring

traders. My day-to-day responsibilities include supervising and providing

relevant content to our social media outlets, such as Facebook, Twitter,

and LinkedIn while driving traffic to the website. I helped collaborate on

restructuring the sales pitch to potential clients and highlighting the

sales process as a whole.

I am looking for an opportunity that offers a creative office work

environment as well as in the field, face-to-face client relations. I want

to become a top contributor to your team and I appreciate your time to

review my qualifications and thank you in advance. My email and cell phone

number are below. I look forward to hearing from you.

Best,

Jordan W. Smith
