Traditional cover letters tend to follow a similar format. A great way to stand out and be a memorable applicant is to create a non-traditional cover letter. The following cover letter sample shows a different approach to the conventional cover letter that highlight’s the candidate’s value in a unique way.

Re:
Dear Mr(s).___________:
Your revenues will outweigh, and your service will outshine all others regardless of reports that the food industry faced tens of thousands of job cuts last month. What does this economy mean to you and me? It means that hiring a person with a track record of saving money is in your best interest. Lost sales today, means money problems and layoffs tomorrow — it’s that simple!
So, what can you do differently to keep your business far in the green where others are slapped in the face with losses?
At Bob Evans, I added 17.5% to their revenue by cutting labor to supply costs, and focusing on loss prevention and teaching the staff how to up-sell clients. This small increase created $128,000 in new sales throughout the first year alone. Over the course of the programs and training I put into place, the business will likely pocket over a $1 million in the next few years alone.
Key achievements:
Record Sales: $2,800 per Hour ∙ Reduced Customer Complaints by 68%
Cut Inventory Losses from Theft by 13% ∙ Created Loss Control Program
and Assisted with a “Best Practices” Program
Your business is currently wasting money; but the “where, when, and how” are unknown until I’m given the opportunity to review your existing business structure. Lost revenues cause a number of problems: lost wage increases, cutbacks on benefits, and the inability to hire quality personnel.
Call me at (XXX) XXX-XXXX, I’d like to discuss the obstacles your business is currently facing and I’ll be glad to outline ways of increasing sales without hindering the overall quality.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Jobseeker
