Dear Hiring Manager:

I am writing this letter in an effort to explain why I feel I would be a good fit for your company. I have been in Technical Sales for over 30 years. My background has been with Engineered Materials, however I believe I have a very good understanding of the specific sales process that is required for this type of business.

I have included comments from two of my references which I hope you find helpful, please feel free to contact them direct.

Comments from Dr. Tim Emery, Technical Director at Siemens Westinghouse Power Corporation:

I have known Gary for close to 30 years. When I worked with him closely, he worked for Electrolock as a Sales Engineer. Gary helped me with many technical problems in Westinghouse (which is now Siemens) with specific applications where we were trying to develop new materials that would work in the energy industry and in high heat and high voltage applications. I had no use for a salesman who took orders, what I needed was a partner who could help us solve very technical problems. Gary was very helpful in initiating the new materials. He wasn’t afraid to go into the factory floor with me, and spend literally hours working with our team. Once he had a good understanding of our needs, he would return to Electrolock and research several options for us. He had a strong technical aptitude and was able to evaluate the critical variables and suggest logical solutions to our problems. We would use these materials in prototypes for use in our devices. We have a very good working relationship that spanned at least 15 years. I haven’t worked with him in ten years, but I do enjoy working with him. He has a sense of humor and kept me laughing. I will say also that his work enabled us to be successful and most of the materials that we developed together are still in use today.

Siemens bought Westinghouse and we have integrated their culture into our plants. Our focus is on large generators that are in the 250MVA size up to 1200 Megawatts.

I worked with Gary for 15 years and I always trusted his word. When he said something, it was true. He didn’t try to gloss things over, and I was impressed because he would admit to problems in initial trials and go back and start over with a cheerful attitude. We did a lot of initial trials in the plant on a regular basis, I wanted him by my side seeing the application in person. This worked out well and I consider Gary a trusted resource.

Comments from Randy Rutter, President of Coil Manufacturing, Inc. (CMI):

I have known Gary since 1986. My company makes coils for electric motors. However, my relationship with Gary extends prior to CMI when I was with ABB, and when they bought Westinghouse. Gary is a very uniquely qualified individual, and there are very few people that I know who are as great in the role of a technical sales engineer. The world is full of all kinds of guys who can sell, but very few real technical salesmen. Gary is a bright guy, but more importantly, he is a polished problem solver. He would come in and physically see how we taped our coils and what our issues were in our manufacturing process. One example of his dedication is his work on the Armor Seal Project. This was a new project for our sealed coils and it involved several layers of tape and resins. His work enabled us to manufacture this product and guarantee our quality to our customers. What I really liked about Gary is that he is a smart study and he would ask very logical questions like “why have you done it this way” or “how about if I came up with a product that did this?” He would often times come back with several samples. In reality, some worked, some worked wonders, and others failed. Either way, Gary would keep the project alive and moving forward until he solved the problem. This was important to us since we deal with really big stuff, like 10,000 HP motors. I love working with so much that I would switch my business to a supplier who could meet our needs with Gary as a Sales Engineer in a heartbeat.
