To Whom It May Concern:
I am seeking a permanent position to handle new business lead
generation for your firm.
I have a database for the advertising field with over 10,000 names of
contacts in the marketing field as well as the ability to quickly build a
database for other industries. I have in depth knowledge of cold calling
procedures and reaching people all over the United States. I also consult
in these matters, should my services be required.
Working the required hours to ensure that my duties are complete is a
normal day at the office.
I can produce my quota of valid pitch meetings per average week.
I look forward to meeting and working with you soon.
Sincerely,
Joel Poger
