Dear Mr. Jones:
I was very impressed by the article about Carson Construction in the November
th
8 Davenport Times. Your record of sales growth over the past five years is
enviable, and I think your diversification moves have been strategically sound.
I believe that my experience in similar environments would be valuable to a
company such as Carson. I know how to design and implement management
control systems that enable companies to sustain growth in profits along with
growth in sales. This can be done without putting unnecessary restraints on the
ability to exploit emerging opportunities.
The enclosed resume gives specifics on several of my accomplishments in this
field. I would like to meet with you to see whether my skills and experience might
match a need you have within your organization. I will follow up next week to
request an appointment.
Sincerely,
Bob McDougall
