Dear Engineering Professional:
I am writing to you in regards to our mutual interest in developing
timely and cost effective electronic design, test and packaging
solutions demanded by our current clients and future customers.
We both recognize that there are many opportunities in today's
marketplace for those organizations and individuals who can
successfully master the numerous design, test and packaging technology
options to deliver consistently high quality solutions to rigorous
customer requirements. We recognize that our clients and customers
want solutions which are correct by design, delivered on time, right
the first time, each and every time. We recognize that the best
strategy for long term business success is uncompromised customer
satisfaction.
I can help you fill your customers needs now. If you represent one of
those organizations which has an interest in the areas mentioned
above, I will be glad to show you how I can help.
As you are no doubt aware, virtually all electronic products and
sub-assemblies are being designed to deliver more functionality, in
less space, in less time and at less cost than ever before. These
drivers apply across the application spectrum from low cost, high
volume systems to low-mid volume, high value systems. Furthermore,
these forces apply across all market segments and serve as the
underlying growth engine and catalyst that fuels not only the
electronic industry in particular, but many dependent industries
utilizing embedded electronics. Leading organizations leverage these
forces to provide a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
Nevertheless, escalating competitive pressures both locally and
globally mandate cost effective and time constrained design and
development cycles in the face of a dizzying array of implementation
options and technology choices. Increasingly, design and development
efforts are distributed both geographically and organizationally, but
must be highly coordinated at the earliest possible opportunity to
minimize false starts and ensure rapid convergence towards working
solutions which satisfy all customer requirements.
Do these challenges sound familiar I have a demonstrated track record
for delivering timely, high quality results in a challenging, dynamic
business climate. Please take the opportunity to review my background
and experience in these areas to see where I can make the greatest
contribution to the success of your organization.
In closing, thank you for taking the time to consider our mutual
interests and for exploring the ways in which we may be able to work
together in the future.
Sincerely,
John Nieznanski
