Dear John,
My name is Jim Blessed, and I am a Paid Media Specialist. I recently discovered your company on LinkedIn and was beyond impressed by your incredible work. I have over six years of marketing experience, and I would love to be a member of your team.
I’ve followed your company for a while, and I’ve studied your company every time a new case study was released. The last case study blew me out of the water as your average CPC was nothing like I’d seen before.
I have managed over $200k in ad spending with a turnover rate of over 50%. I recently won the youngest marketer award at the Institute of marketing. I have experience running SEM campaigns, email marketing campaigns, search campaigns, etc.
I have attached a link to my website and a copy of my CV to this email. Please get back to me if there’s any open position. If there isn’t, I’d be honored if you considered me in the future.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Jim Blessed
