To whom it may concern:
It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Scott Olson. In my role at Virbac as the National Account Manager for Midwest Veterinary Supply, I had the opportunity to get to know Scott both professionally and personally.
Scott was one of several purchasing agents I have dealt with over the years from various companies and without a doubt made my job easier than any of the others by keeping inventory at levels that rarely resulted in back orders, accurately forecasting demand for 8 different branches so I could keep Virbac production running at high levels of efficiency and kept a keen eye on purchase goals so Midwest would maximize its rebate potential for purchase goals. He also proved to be very knowledgeable on industry intel which allowed me to reply on him as a valuable source of information. Scott is truly a motivated ‘self-starter’ and has always shown passion, promptness, responsibility, dependability and follow up in all that he has done in his role. I enjoyed my time working with Scott and getting to know him personally. I know that he will successfully apply his solid skills and relationship building experiences to any company that is fortunate enough to hire him.
Sincerely,
Stan Gabriel
