Mr. John Smith,

National Accounts Inc.,
257, Park Avenue South,
New York, NY 12345-6789.

Dear Mr. Smith,

If you have a client who needs to be catered on a one-to-one basis with full time back-up
plans, I'd then, like to make a strong case for myself. My track record in handling key accounts
has helped enhance the reputation of my present firm, Regional Accounts Inc. as permanent
consultants at its client's end, here at New York. I am contacting you, as I believe it is time for a
change. Regional Accounts Inc. is in the process of merging with another company, so the time
seems right to move on.

Of particular interest to your firm:

• I have demonstrated my strategic ability through successfully implementing investment

strategies.
• I have consistently contributed my leadership skills in a corporate setting, while
managing the creative process, motivating and empowering team members, fine-tuning
auditing plans, and juggling multiple administrative tasks.
• My team was awarded "The Best Key Holders" award consecutively for the last two
years.

I am particularly interested in position of accounts manager in the following categories:

• Handling and leveraging investment opportunities for the portfolio companies and
advising them on appropriate strategies;
• Perform technical accounting research, as required for accounting implications and
modifications to stock option grants, derivative instruments, ESOPs, pension, post-
retirement and post-employment issues, etc.

I'd like to meet with you to discuss adding value to one of your client firms as I've done for
my present employers. I'll contact you soon to arrange a meeting. Should you wish to contact me
before then, I can be reached during the day on my direct line (123.444.5678) or at home most
evenings (123.555.6789).

Regards,
Richard Anderson,
Accounts Manager,
Regional Accounts Inc.
