Harold C. Freedman

Oak Forest, IL 12345

Dear Mr. Freedman,

I believe I can expedite the signing of your pending agreement with the government of Brazil. Please read on to see why I believe this is true.

As your contract negotiator, here's the ammunition I bring to the table:

  • Experience negotiating three major telecommunications contracts with South American governments (Argentina, Costa Rica, and Peru).
  • A firm record of closing sales with better-than-expected profit margins.
  • Fluency (written and spoken) in the "big four" languages used in most business transactions around the world.

Since your fiscal year is nearly at its end, I suspect you are eager to see your contract finalized. I suggest we speak soon. I'll call your office to see how quickly we can meet.

I look forward to representing you. Thank you!

Sincerely yours,

Heather Buchner
