Inside Sales Manager Example

Dear Mr. Jones,

I read with great interest your ad for an Inside Sales Manager at J&B Products and am attaching my resume for your review and consideration. I have over ten years experience in both business-to-business and business-to-consumer sales experience.

In my current position as Inside Sales Manager for Allen Products, I manage a sales staff of five remote sales professionals. I set difficult but attainable quotas, and train them in customer service, like expediting a customer’s order. I initiated an active online presence, resulting in two of my staff being responsible for inbound calls and responding to web site inquiries. The combination of outbound and inbound sales has resulted in an increase in sales of 14 percent over the last fiscal year.

I understand the value of training, and one of the first lessons in our sales training is that inside sales is not telemarketing Ð it is remote sales conducted professionally. In addition to the initial contact and order, my staff is also trained to follow-up with customers to ensure prompt product delivery and satisfaction.

I look forward to discussing this opportunity with you and to outline my plan to increase sales for J&B Products. I’ll check with your office next week on the status of this position and I can make myself available according to your schedule. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Cindy Martin
