Dear Sir or Madam:
Please review the enclosed resume. I have a good bit of experience in sales, customer
service and telemarketing, and other skills gained during my time in college and in the
army. Some of my sales experience is not on my resume because it fell outside the 10
year mark. But I have worked in retail sales, group sales, and telemarketing sales. I also
own my own small business, TwirlyGirlFashions, selling custom made clothing and gifts.
If hired, you will find that I am motivated, personable, and a self starter. Thank you for
considering me for this job. I hope to hear from you for an interview.
Sincerely,
Jolynn Farr
