As a highly skilled beverage sales manager, I read your posting for a National Sales Manager for Craft Beer with interest. My experience aligns well with the qualifications you are seeking. In particular my role as a parent company representative, and I am certain I would make a valuable addition to your company.
With several years of experience as a beverage sales manager, I am adept in market development, securing distribution and package and product development. Moreover, while my on-the-job experience has afforded me a well-rounded skill set, including analytical and organization abilities, I excel at:
Developing lasting relationships with retailers to secure product authorizations.
Securing new business opportunities and stimulating growth.
Recommending and implementing successful distribution programs.
Preparing product presentations for retailers, distributor management and sales staff.
In addition to my experience and personal qualities, I have a solid foundation and passion for the beverage industry. I have traveled extensively throughout the United States and the world, including England, Bangladesh and Dubai, to open new facilities and negotiate new distribution opportunities. I have represented major brands in the beverage industry to include Pepsi Cola, Coca-Cola and Dr Pepper Snapple Group. My strong work ethic will surpass your expectations and I welcome an opportunity to contribute to your continued success.
Please review my attached resume for additional details regarding my expertise and career achievements.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Kind Regards,
Roy Noble
