Dear Hiring Professional:
Please consider this letter of Introduction as an expression of my interest
in exploring and identifying career opportunities with your organization in
a Sales or Business Management position. The enclosed r sum highlights my
experience, qualifications and accomplishments.
As my r sum reflects, I have 25 years of solid experience penetrating and
capturing new market opportunities in highly competitive industries. I
credit my success in the sales arena to being able to gather and leverage
sales intelligence faster than my competition and by anticipating the needs
of my clients. Furthermore, I have enjoyed an impressive track record of
putting together "win-win" sales deals for my customers that yield enduring
results. I believe strongly that I possess the requisite skill-set to make
significant bottom-line contributions within your organization.
I attribute my success thus far in life to several key factors: (1) a
capacity for continued personal and professional growth, (2) advanced
interpersonal relationship and analytical skills, (3) ability to find
structural solutions to business challenges, (4) command of presentation
and communication skills, and (5) ability to analyze and identify
roadblocks and apply creative problem-solving to reach objectives in
performance-critical environments.
Although practical in nature, my r sum cannot convey the enthusiasm and
energy I bring to new challenges. I would appreciate an opportunity to
speak with you to discuss your needs and the ways in which I can help you
achieve and exceed them. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you for your attention and consideration.
Sincerely,
Salvador Perez, III
