14．Dear Ms．Smith，
I am writing to apply for the Sales Manager position on the careers page of the King Computers website．Last year King Computers added five new offices，making it the largest computer sales and services company in the state．I understand that one of the company's aims is to expand outside of the Washington area．I am seeking the opportunity to play an important role in your growing business．As a sales manager with Diamond Computers，I expanded our sales area by 150% in two years．I am confident that my leadership and experience will help King Computers achieve its goals，too．
I have worked in the field of computer sales for over fifteen years．Currently I am a sales manager for Diamond Computers based in Seattle．I am skilled at managing accounts and increasing sales revenue（收益）．Last year，my team produced $960，000 in revenue---the highest in the company．Also，I received the Diamond Sales Award for the best sales manager．In addition，I am experienced at planning sales strategies，developing advertising campaigns，and creating sales budgets．
King Computers is well-known for its customer-first philosophy．In my fifteen years in sales，this way of thinking is the most important thing I have learned．A sales strategy should never be just about getting money from customers．I believe it's important to take the time to listen to each customer---to understand what he or she really needs．Then，we must find the product that best matches those needs．As a sales manager for King Computers，I will be in a great position to do just that．
If you are looking for a skilled sales manager with a history of success，I would be delighted to speak with you．
I look forward to hearing from you soon．
Sincerely，
Paul Reubens
