Dear Recruiter,
Just Sales Jobs
Cambridge, ON
With over 16 years of experience in technical sales and business development, I am pleased to write and express my interest in the position of Territory Sales Manager at your client company situated at Cambridge, ON. As a communicative and driven professional with a long track record of optimising sales operations and refining business processes, I believe I will be a valuable asset in the advancement of your organisation. Not only am I proficient in competitive market analysis and niche market identification, I have the managerial and communicational skills to put my abilities into effect, having successfully managed large teams and multiple products technical sales. My Plum Profile also classifies me as a marvellous manager, a chief communicator, and a quick decision maker. Moreover, I am highly versatile, with experience in working with almost all forms of power transmission and distribution products, whether they are high voltage transformers, substations, electrical transmission lines, or even thermal and solar power.
One of my foremost achievements has been as a Technical and Inside Sales Specialist at Domino High Voltage Supply, where I optimised the estimation and bidding process, increasing its efficiency. I have earlier strategically secured new accounts, handling over $75 M with a 5% success rate, as an example of my business development capabilities. Besides these, I have also demonstrated my business acumen at Northern Transformer Corporation, using my “Bid to Win” strategies to create “Win-Win” situations for major contracts, thereby highly boosting sales. In addition to my sales expertise, I am also exceedingly adept at nurturing and building business relationships and hence acquiring more clients, which I practically demonstrated when I was instrumental in winning an order for 504 MVA and 185 MVA Transformers worth $10 M from New Brunswick Hydro at KA Factor Group. One of my foremost achievements has been as a Regional Sales Manager at EMCO Ltd., where I transformed my region into the highest performing one at annual sales of $22 M. At Adani Power, I logged market dynamics and their impact on estimates, enhancing the efficacy of sales, and devised and modified a “start-up” marketing plan resulting in dramatic growth within 1 year for Prudent Greentech. Besides my practical achievements, I have studied Project Management, Sales, and Marketing as well as Electrical Construction Estimating at Humber College, and am also a Certified Engineering Technician (Electrical) courtesy of the OACETT. Since I always strive to better myself, I am also endeavouring to become a Certified Electrical Technologist from OACETT and a Construction Estimator Certified (CEC) from CIQS.
With knowledge of modern software such as Microsoft Office, Projects, and Visio, SAP, EPICOR, CRM, and estimation software, I look forward to learning and growing with your company, where I will apply the entirety of my extensive experience in my work.
I would be extremely grateful if you considered my resumé, and an opportunity for an interview would be highly appreciated. If there is any need for more information, please feel free to contact me and I will be happy to provide it. Thank you for your valuable time and consideration. Sincerely,
Kapil Shah
