Ms. Ginger Kopp
Hiring Manager
ABC Advertising, Inc.
65 Lambert Street
Worthington, USA 68979

Dear Ms. Kopp:

I’m aware of your need for an advertising sales agent, based on your listing on Resumel.com. I have a knack for sales-having spent my teenage years doing door-to-door sales and working part-time at my uncle’s local newspaper where I sold advertising space.

May I meet with you to talk about what you have in mind for the advertising sales agents you’ll be hiring over the next month? I’d like to be one of them. Call me at 786-578-9076 to set up an appointment when it works for you.

Thanks so much for giving me a chance to introduce myself through this cover letter and to bid for the job. I look forward to your call.

Sincerely,

Fred Lawton
