To whom it may concern I’m writing in regard to the open sales representative position you have posted. As an experienced sales representative who has been in the sales environment for + 10 years, I am very interested in this opportunity, and I am confident that you will find me to be a successful candidate for joining your team. It is with great assurance that I believe I possess all the qualities you are seeking. My last employment was with Khanyisela College, as their sales supervisor since January where I was a consultant for 3 months before being promoted. Being responsible for managing two reps and two interns, meeting a target of R550 000 a month, and closing client-derived deals, I work with the goal of using my well-rounded skill set to ensure a positive and effective work environment. Additionally, I also work on a personal level with our customers, to focus on their needs and goals, and plan accordingly to reach them. During this year that I have worked at Khanyisela College, I have honoured my cold calling skills, and have been able to implement several techniques to bring in business. During this year alone, I have increased our customer base by 40%. I am proud to say that I continuously exceed the sales goals and monthly quotas given, and have developed my leadership skills through leading this small team. I am a firm believer that strong communication skills are the key to success, and mine are nothing short of superior. I also consider myself an active listener when it comes to serving my clients, and I am able to easily connect with customers from all walks of life. Among my other skills, you will find that I am a dedicated individual with good attendance and punctuality. While I possess the ability to work individually, I am also a team player, and understand the true value of contributing to a team effort. I sincerely look forward to discussing my qualities and traits more in-depth face-to-face, on Skype, or on the phone. I would enthusiastically and humbly accept an interview, should it be extended, and I thank you greatly for your time. Sincerely, Xolelwa Vandala
