Mr. Jordan Rose
Human Resources Director
XYZ Corporation
Santa Monica, CA 90403

Dear Mr. Rose,

I would like to express my interest in applying my relevant experience and background to a management position in the sales department at XYZ Corporation. After learning of your organization, I became particularly intrigued by your product line. I believe that my communication skills and experience in the pharmaceutical industry would make me an excellent candidate for a position in your organization.

My past work experiences have enabled me to gain the necessary skills to be successful in a sales environment. I have 15 years experience in district, state and regional territory sales management in the pharmaceutical industry. Utilizing my extensive communication skills, both written and verbal, I have been able to cumulatively develop, maintain and manage up to five million dollars in sales for multiple companies. I have presented, represented and promoted various pharmaceutical products to potential clients at sales meetings, through office visits and at regional trade shows. Additionally, as the West Coast Division Manager for ABC Pharmaceuticals, I oversaw the sales and evaluation of 12 territory salespersons.

I am confident that the accomplishments that I have made, my knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry and the sales experience that I possess would be of great benefit to your organization. I feel that my strong skills, combined with my ambitious nature, would make me an excellent candidate for a sales management position. I would welcome the opportunity to meet with you to further discuss the potential opportunities within your organization. Thank you for you time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Olivia L. Blask
