Referral Letter Example

Mr. Rich Freeland, VP Marketing
Ford Center
123 Main Street
Oklahoma City, WA 66556

Dear Mr. Freeland,

In a recent conversation with Janis French, she suggested I contact you. You are recognized for your expertise in managing Moscone Center, Reunion Plaza and, currently, The Ford Center.

My passion is marketing large productions and events where I can utilize my creative, innovative and problem solving abilities. The sense of satisfaction at the close of an event or production is always worth the time, effort and hard work. My work includes 7 international trade shows for SC Johnson and Sons. They were pleased with the increase in quality inquiries and brand awareness and the fact I had reduced the overall trade show costs.

Mr. Freeland, I do not expect you to have (or know of) opportunities. I would like a brief meeting to discuss the convention industry as well as current and future trends. Your advice and feedback will be greatly appreciated.

I will call you the first part of the week to set a convenient time to meet. I will come prepared and be brief. I look forward to meeting you.

Sincerely,

Deborah Sweetingale
