LETTER 4-10: NETWORKING—FINANCIAL

Mr. James J. Milstein
Assistant Treasurer
J.P. Chase Manhattan Bank
14 Chase Plaza
New York, NY 09876
Dear Mr. Milstein:

It was a pleasure meeting you at last week’s Retirement Seminar. The amount of
work that went into preparing such an informative program was evident and
well spent, I can assure you. Your presenters held the interest of each
participant, and clearly described the products and services your firm offers.
Given my background and interest in this dynamic area of financial services, I
believe that I may be able to offer your firm something of value in return. As the
enclosed resume demonstrates, my track record with prospective customers is
a proven one; over the last 16 months, I have increased our company’s sales of
retirement planning services by 22%!

Mr. Milstein, this is the growth potential I would like to offer a leading firm such
as yours. If there is any advice or recommendation you could offer, I would be
most grateful. I will take the liberty of calling you shortly to see to whom I should
address my credentials at Chase.
Again, my thanks for a most enjoyable seminar and for any assistance you can
provide.
With appreciation,

Peter Anselmo
