Dear Hiring Manager,
I am a professional photographer, graphic and web designer with more than 9 years experience in corporate marketing. As a goal-oriented self-starter, I go beyond my expected role to aid in marketing goals. I am able to take projects from concept to completion which makes me an ideal candidate for this position.
My portfolio will show my varied skill set. However, here are a few highlights of my skills and achievements;
• Re-designed and managed online web store using Volusion shopping cart, integrating all online software with offline commerce software.
• Mastered and implemented SilverPop email deployment with emails sent to over 200,000 subscribers twice weekly.
• 64+ page catalog developed using InDesign and mailed to over 250,000 people quarterly.
• Designed innovative packaging that was manufactured in China and purchased by 100 stores.
• Photographed over 1,000 products ranging from the abnormal (automated litter boxes) to the basic (scrapbooks); highly experienced with lighting and retouching.
In my previous employment, I have shown great leadership while also being a team player who thrives on the company’s success. I am capable of quickly changing from print media design to web media design which has helped in reaching marketing goals. I work well with deadlines and specific direction however I can also be a self-managed free-thinker and meet goals and deadlines.
Attached is my resume and contact information. Please also view my Linked In profile: www.linkedin.com/in/jonbon and my online portfolio: www.Jon-Bon.com for further reference. After doing so, you will find I am your ideal candidate for this position, and I look forward to discussing my qualifications with you in person in the near future.
