Dear District Hiring Manager:

Throughout my experience as a Football Coach for several
universities, I have developed valuable skills for selling the
benefits of the school's programs and services and coordinating
national recruiting efforts for top-rated high school athletes and
their parents. I am interested in entering a career path in
pharmaceutical sales where my commitment, sales ability, and strong
presentation ability will increase sales and market share and secure
long-term accounts. The enclosed resume highlights my sales
strengths, experience and athletic/coaching achievements that will
make me a valuable addition to your district sales team.

During my coaching career, I have played a contributing role in
turning around underperforming programs and earning numerous
achievements, including:

* Advertising and selling summer football camps to coaches and
recruiting record numbers of participants.

* Coaching the Southern Conference Defensive Player of the Year in
2005 and a 1st round NFL draft pick.

* Coaching Total Defense from #5 to #3 ranking in the Southern
Conference.

* Coaching on two Big Ten Championship Teams and in two Rose Bowls.

* Implementing recruiting efforts that secured commitments from
athletes across the region.

Much of the experience I gained in this profession has allowed me to
develop the skills that will make me a valuable addition to your
sales force. Recruiting top athletes is one of the areas in which I
really excel, and with all of the major universities focusing on a
small group of prospects, I rely heavily on my sales and relationship-
building skills to secure commitments.

If hired with your company, I will remain committed to increasing
revenues and market share; making creative presentations that educate
physicians on product benefits/applications; and building long-term
relationships with physicians, nurses, and medical support staff. I
would be pleased to meet with you for an interview to further
demonstrate my qualifications, answer any questions that you may
have, and determine how our association can be of mutual benefit.

Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Mark Collins
