Resume:

Gentlemen & Ladies:

With ** years of goal-oriented management for multi-million dollar

corporations, I am offering my track record of success to leading my next

corporate opportunity.

I have always greatly improved the bottom line of the corporations I had

been responsible for. I have over 11 years experience in Events Management

experience. My staffs have varied in size from a few dozen to hundreds. I

am not only a solid team leader and team player, I inspire my team.

I look forward to the opportunity of discussing this opportunity with you

in person, and mutually exploring whether we would be a good fit for each

other.

I feel my best skill is to take overall assessment of where a company is,

where it wants to go, and then ascertain how to get it there. I believe

your operation has the ability to achieve greater things.

While I would rather prefer a consultant position. I have over 40 years

experience in Marketing, and have taught Salesmanship to hundreds .of

professional commission sales adults as a Professor in college, and

accepted a challenge from my "students" to become a commissioned salesman

to prove my own sales theories and sales abilities. I won that challenge

by out selling all the seasoned pros.

I have attached my resume for your review. Thank you very much, and I look

forward to an in-depth personal interview. While I have been retired for a

number of years, I am anxious to get back 'in harness'.

Sincerely,

William T. Tucker
