2. Salesman cover letter sample 1
Dear Mr Jackson
Within a very short span of time, I developed sales skills that brought about a 33%
increase in Broadway Dungeon’s sales in 2010. Since then, I have had a record of
sustained sales increases in the years 2011 and 2012 which did not only lead to an
increase in customer base, but also engendered recurring business for the company.
These skills combined with my personal motivation makes an exceptional candidate for
Macy’s as a salesman.
I am in search of new opportunities to increase and retain customers; my typical work day
is full of challenges and I strive hard to meet and exceed assigned targets. Possessing
strong analytic skills and admirable creativity, I have been known to handle irate
customers in a positive manner. My sales expertise provide me great insight into
determining customers’ needs and recommending appropriate solutions. Being able to
work well independently and in a team fostered environment, I can meet deadlines
effectively and my motivation has often rubbed off on my co-workers to do the same!
I have included my resume which further details into my accomplishments. I am very
excited at the prospect of working for Macy’s as I am positive that I have much to
contribute to this organization as well. Thank you for your consideration and I look
forward to the opportunity to speak with you about my candidacy in greater detail.

3. Salesman cover letter sample 2
Dear Mr Jackson
It was with great excitement that I learned about the Sales Representative position at
your esteemed company. I was privileged enough to work in sales for more than 10 years,
and I don’t see myself in any other career. Working in sales gives me the motivation to
succeed and grow in the organization, and seeing my employers grow as a result of my
efforts further motivates me to leap higher.
During my previous role at one of the world’s largest cosmetics companies, I managed to
close more than 50 deals a day, generating 20% of the company’s annual revenues.
Naturally, I was promoted to senior sales representative. This role enabled me to build my
negotiation skills, persuasive skills, and interpersonal skills. More importantly, I was able
to communicate effectively with customers from around the world and from different age
levels. This role enhanced my confidence and pushed me to voluntarily train other sales
representatives in the company in order to contribute to its growth and prosperity.
I feel that I would thrive in a fast-paced company such as yours, and be able to both learn
a great and contribute a great deal. Please find attached my resume, which details my
employment history and key achievements in my 10-year career. I look forward to hearing
from you to discuss my application.
