i am currently seeking a challenging new general management opportunity with a progressive automobile dealership, and am submitting my resume for review.  in advance, thank you for your time and consideration.

 

as demonstrated in the accompanying resume, my professional qualifications include over 20 years of progression and consistent success in steering dealerships to double new/used sales and f&i income, substantially boost csi scores and maximize bottom-line profitability.  i excel in defining and implementing strategies to turn around poor-performing dealerships and have been instrumental in driving dealerships to dominate competitive markets.  from team building, marketing, promotion, and customer relations to parts/service, administrative and financial operations, i am well-versed in all areas of the industry and capable of delivering both immediate and long-term results for your organization.

 

as a general manager, you will find me to be a driven team player and hands-on leader committed to supporting you in achieving your objectives through superior performance.  i am confident that i could be a valuable asset to your dealership, and look forward to interviewing with you in the near future.

 

sincerely,
