"It	
  is	
  my	
  pleasure	
  to	
  write	
  this	
  letter	
  of	
  recommendation	
  on	
  behalf	
  of	
  Lindsay	
  Olsen.	
  
I	
  had	
  the	
  privilege	
  of	
  serving	
  as	
  Lindsay’s	
  supervisor	
  at	
  Seafair	
  from	
  January	
  –	
  
August	
  2015.	
  	
  
	
  
Seafair	
  has	
  a	
  bustling	
  sales	
  department	
  with	
  over	
  150	
  sponsors	
  netting	
  over	
  2.5	
  
million	
  in	
  revenue	
  for	
  the	
  festival.	
  During	
  Lindsay’s	
  time	
  at	
  Seafair	
  she	
  was	
  involved	
  
in	
  several	
  sales	
  and	
  marketing	
  projects	
  including:	
  	
  
-­‐Coordinating	
  festival	
  sponsor	
  fulfillment	
  (and	
  was	
  our	
  key	
  account	
  rep.	
  with	
  client	
  
Starbucks)	
  	
  
-­‐Launching	
  our	
  new	
  college	
  and	
  Seattle	
  sports	
  team	
  initiatives	
  at	
  Seafair	
  Weekend	
  –	
  
which	
  included	
  creating	
  a	
  prospect	
  list,	
  flyer,	
  contract	
  template,	
  etc.	
  	
  
-­‐Special	
  event	
  and	
  brand	
  marketing	
  planning	
  and	
  activation	
  	
  
	
  
Based	
  on	
  her	
  overall	
  background	
  –	
  combining	
  her	
  experience	
  at	
  Seafair,	
  her	
  prior	
  
position	
  at	
  the	
  Sasquatch	
  music	
  festival,	
  on	
  campus	
  activities,	
  etc.	
  –	
  I	
  believe	
  she	
  is	
  
an	
  ideal	
  candidate	
  and	
  will	
  no	
  doubt	
  have	
  a	
  successful	
  career	
  in	
  sales.	
  She	
  has	
  
already	
  mastered	
  the	
  fundamentals.	
  	
  
	
  
Lindsay	
  has	
  a	
  lot	
  of	
  positive	
  qualities,	
  but	
  two	
  stood	
  out	
  by	
  far	
  and	
  away	
  that	
  I	
  have	
  
very	
  rarely	
  seen	
  at	
  her	
  age:	
  	
  
-­‐Her	
  attitude.	
  Simply	
  put	
  –	
  she	
  amazed	
  our	
  entire	
  leadership	
  team.	
  The	
  nature	
  of	
  our	
  
business	
  brings	
  us	
  a	
  very	
  hectic,	
  busy	
  and	
  fast-­‐paced	
  environment.	
  The	
  summer	
  
festival	
  season	
  can	
  include	
  long	
  hours	
  and	
  the	
  need	
  to	
  be	
  able	
  to	
  function/work	
  with	
  
very	
  high-­‐level	
  clients/sponsors,	
  etc.	
  Lindsay	
  was	
  a	
  fantastic	
  sales	
  rep,	
  under	
  
pressure.	
  Our	
  team	
  and	
  clients	
  trusted	
  and	
  enjoyed	
  working	
  with	
  her.	
  	
  
-­‐Drive.	
  I	
  don’t	
  believe	
  I’ve	
  met	
  someone	
  as	
  hard	
  working	
  as	
  Lindsay.	
  Her	
  resume	
  
already	
  includes	
  a	
  wealth	
  of	
  experience.	
  She	
  is	
  constantly	
  putting	
  herself	
  in	
  the	
  
position	
  to	
  learn,	
  grow,	
  and	
  gain	
  experience.	
  I	
  feel	
  confident	
  in	
  her	
  ability	
  to	
  juggle	
  
multiple	
  projects,	
  clients,	
  etc.	
  	
  
	
  
If	
  she	
  had	
  been	
  eligible	
  to	
  hire	
  into	
  a	
  full-­‐time	
  position	
  (completed	
  her	
  degree),	
  we	
  
would	
  have	
  most	
  certainly	
  made	
  a	
  case	
  to	
  hire	
  her	
  permanently.	
  Lindsay	
  will	
  be	
  a	
  
valuable	
  asset	
  to	
  any	
  team.	
  	
  
	
  
Thanks,	
  	
  
Melissa	
  A.	
  Jurcan,
