Dear Mr. Kline:
Understanding physicians and their needs is the first step to building a long-term professional relationship that will make one an indispensible asset in the client’s practice. As a surgical specialist with 10 years of sales experience and a background in neuroscience, I can provide a unique insight into the mind of the doctor!
I am very interested in the Neuromodulation Sales Representative position listed on your career webpage, for the Gainesville, Florida region. Having worked as a surgical device representative in the past, I am quite familiar with your company, as well as the field of interventional pain, and would welcome the opportunity to speak with you about how I could help increase your North Central Florida market share. Your Regional Recruiter, Jordan Chase, reached out to me and recommended that I contact you directly about this position. After speaking with him and sharing my experiences and past success, Jordan felt that I would be an excellent match for Medtronic.
My extensive experience in consultative sales of medical devices and surgical implants has given me an overall knowledge of the business, directly applicable to your initiative of managing and growing the base business in the territory. In my most recent sales position with Stryker Spine, I was recognized for the following accomplishments: * Achieved 125% of quota in first 30 days in territory * Grew existing business by 30% in first six months * Maintained spine sales over 127% of quota in all territories.
My success in past sales roles is greatly attributed to my ability to develop and nurture long-term relationships, with both existing and new accounts. This is a skill that was greatly improved by surpassing a challenge presented during my role with Radiology
