Dear Otis Hohimer:
I suspect you’ll find very few candidates with a background such as mine and it’s one I’d like to put to work on your behalf.
As you’ll see on the enclosed resume, the depth of my experience in sales offers you the opportunity to hire someone who is comfortable and successful with cold canvassing.
Moreover, having worked as a sales representative in a variety of industries, I have the background to construct sales pitches that will turn interest into revenue for you. It is only due to the long-term economic volatility (resulting in downsizing, layoffs, mergers, and business failures) that I have held positions at numerous companies. However, it is this fact that allows me to offer you such an unusual breadth of experience.
A personal interview would allow me to answer any questions that you may have. I look forward to hearing from you so that we can schedule a meeting.
Sincerely,
Nancy Marcet
