LETTER 5-51: DISTRIBUTION MANAGER—SALARY
Ms. Laurel Simone
President
Inroads Automotive
230 Crossways Boulevard
Fresno, CA 09876
Dear Ms. Simone:
Over the years, I have been well aware of Inroads
Automotive’s continuing success.
As a customer and fellow member of the retailing
profession, I have been impressed with the way your
company stays ahead of your competition -- by
correctly predicting in advance what products and
services the public will demand, and then delivering
them.
This is exactly how I direct my professional career,
which leads me to send you my resume now.

By carefully monitoring sales and industry trends,
I significantly improved inventory management,
increasing sales and broadening our customer base.
I have also adapted MIS programs in conjunction
with merchants to streamline inventory controls and
reporting procedures without increasing expenses.
In your search for a Distribution Manager, I hope
you will consider me a serious candidate. When we
meet, I will be pleased to provide information on my
salary history as well as recommendations from
previous employers.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Dorothy Bridle
(555) 456-7890
