Dear Hiring Manager,
Please accept my resume for Marketing and Event Planning positions . My past experiences have allowed me the opportunity to develop, plan and implement successful marketing and sales strategies.
I am confident that my passion and excitement for marketing and sales will be beneficial to your organization. As a Marketing and Sales Manager I have planned all public relations, media campaigns, group sales and advertising initiatives. My background has also included planning many special events that have included brand specific activities to encourage sales and build revenue as well as media events to introduce new product lines to retailers. I have implemented all tradeshow activities including designing the booths, preparing the material, attending the trade show, following up with leads and closing sales. Recently, I have included working on social media outlets as an advertising medium for the organizations I have been involved with. This has included redesigning, updating and organizing material for websites as well as writing and submitting email campaigns.
I believe I would be a great addition to your organization because of my experiences working with attractions and tourism organizations and the most recent being a national exhibition company that stages educational and entertaining experiences for visitors.
I look forward to hearing from you and exploring this opportunity.
