Dear Sir or Madam:

I am a successful tire entrepreneur with more than 17 years experience in the Tire industry which include planning, organization setup, start-up and management of unique and successful retail sales, product development, manufacturing, marketing ventures, and international trading.

My qualifications include:
* Worked in family owned tire business; established since 1945 with offices in Bombay and Kerala
* Solid expertise of new and old tire, sales, retreading, and servicing
* Established commodity trading sales with offices in India, England, Hong Kong, Australia, and Canada
* Posses a Bachelor of Commerce Degree

Currently I am engaged in several temporary assignments involving the launching of a car and truck tire rereading plant in Toronto. This new venture has given me the opportunity to participate, first hand, in product formulation, development and marketing. My experience within the tire industry have been broad in scope, requiring the skill of a well organized, innovative individual,
And I am an effective developer in strategic planning of marketing, and accounting systems with special skill as a problem solver and professional group manager, with innovative approach to getting the job done based on action not words

I am confident that having been involved in international trading and my contacts with other companies within the Tire Industry, I will be able to successfully demonstrate my expertise in supporting and contributing to your company's growth. I would consider travel or relocation should the need arise.

In addition, if your company is planing to expand to India, and interested in a franchise business, or needs an agent, or representative, distributor to set up operations, advertise displays or samples and market tire or tire related products and machinery's, I would be interested.

While I have thoroughly enjoyed running my own business. I am ready to focus my effort on freelance or part time work. Should your organization have any opening, at the present or in the near future? I would also appreciate your assistance in referring me to any organization in need of a professional with my qualification. And forward my materials to appropriate contacts.
