Re:
Dear Mr(s)._____________:
Possessing an in-depth work history in management, retail and re-wholesale operations, and sales, I’ve overseen sales for a garden center, nursery, greenhouse, and flower shop.
My sales and management abilities have also encompassed starting the ground floor of a new distribution center for Imperial Nurseries. My initial responsibilities were to help outline the logistics for the center, set up irrigation, and construct greenhouses. I focused my sales efforts in the Ohio area, including Northern Kentucky and Indiana.
If you need someone to start and operate a horticultural facility or expand on existing operations, I hold the knowledge, skills, sources, and capabilities to make your business succeed.
Accentuating my work experience, I hold key credentials (e.g. degree in landscaping, gardening, and turf technology coupled with being a certified nurseryman). Additionally, I chaired the Trotwood Beautification Committee, so I could get involved in the community and network.
Contact me at (XXX) XXX-XXXX, should you require clarification of my skills or would like to schedule a time for us to discuss this job.
Sincerely,
Job Seeker
