Dear Prospective Employer,
In today's highly competitive market, organizations need a strong and
aggressive Sales Manager, Event Planner, or Senior Account Executive, to
meet ever-changing business development goals. I can absolutely contribute
this level of performance to your team, and I invite you to review my
qualifications and accomplishments:
My most significant Core Competencies include proven Sales Leadership which
allowed me and/or my teams to achieve top sales quotas and national company
recognition, an exceptional ability to create training methods applicable
to any circumstance or method (SaaS and CRM methods are common), ability to
organize and contribute to development of new sales strategies and motivate
my sales team to implement them, and singularly attain and exceed my own
personal business goals and company quotas. PLEASE NOTE that in all of my
Mortgage Positions I have held Management or mentoring Roles, and prior to
my Mortgage background was a Manager in Fine Dining for over 10 years.
With 14 years in the mortgage industry, I have had 9 years in B2B sales
with a track record of consistent proven success in Management, Sales and
Leadership. With 10 years in the Food and Beverage Industry, I have held
Management and Wine Sales/Wine Buyer positions for some of the finest
restaurants in the Washington D.C. area. I am a serious wine and food
enthusiast with a talent for identifying wine and gourmet food trends in
the restaurant industry despite my recent tenure in the mortgage industry.
And finally, I have spent 38 years in the Entertainment Industry as a
singer, actress, and model. This aspect of my career became a part time
hobby when I became a parent, but I am familiar with all aspects of the
industry,
I am an accomplished Sales Professional and a solution-oriented person who
thrives in challenging, fast-paced environments where my performance
directly impacts the bottom line. I have had complete success in a
commission-only environment and am not afraid to work very hard for my
financial rewards.
Currently, I am seeking a position in a new industry where I can continue
to uphold strong sales, training, and performance standards. As a member of
your Sales or Management Team, I am confident that my results-focused
approach would make a significant contribution to the continued success of
your organization.
My resume is enclosed for your review and consideration. I would welcome
the opportunity to speak with you regarding opportunities you have
available currently or in the future.
Additionally, my skills include excellent computer technology proficiency,
ability to learn other products and services quickly and efficiently, a
very strong background in research and analysis, retail management,
purchasing, and sales, and work in the Food and Beverage Industry.
Sincerely,
Heather Roberson
