Messrs. Cut & Comeagain
Dear Mr. John Cut & Mr. Ralph Comeagain:
I am interested in the walking advertiser position listed in the New York Times on August 29.�� I have experience in advertising for various businesses around the city and know I am the ideal candidate for this position.� I attended the City College of New York and majored in Marketing, so my background fits the walking advertiser position very well.
For the past three years, I�ve been working as a sandwich board on the Lower East side for a pizzeria.� Routinely, I have attracted hungry customers into the pizzeria by being on display at key times�from 11-2 for lunch and from 5-midnight for dinner.� At night my sandwich board lights up, and during Christmas I dress up like Santa Claus and play holiday tunes on my organ grinder.� The hours are tough, but I have consistently been on time and enthusiastic every day I�m on the job.
I�ve learned much in my three years working at the pizzeria.� As my r�sum� shows, I know how to design sandwich boards using PageMaker and MS Publisher.� Normally, I make the design on the computer, detailing all text, graphics, and colors, and then send the files to a sign shop to create the actual sandwich board.� The board is heavy and hard to move quickly, but, since I�m an experienced sandwich board operator, I have a superb system and method for performing my walking duties:� I realize that speed isn�t as important as slight variation of angle; I don�t sit in one place, but I also don�t scamper too quickly.� Obviously, if I moved too fast, no one would be able to read the specials.� I maintain a nice medium pace, turning ever so slightly.
I appreciate any consideration you may give me.� I have enclosed my r�sum� for your review and would like to discuss my application further in an interview with your company.� Please contact me at the number above or e-mail me at peterprofit@gmail.com if I can answer any questions you may have.
Hugs and Kisses,
Peter Profit
