Hey there, Clay. Thanks for emailing me back.

 

The position which is available there is an independent rep opportunity. The
territory in Seattle is one of the best in the country, and therefore calls
for a strong, knowledgeable man or woman to really take charge of it. We
have a proposed territory with 97 aquarium stores in it. The great thing is
that the territory is small geographically, which means that the rep
wouldn't waste a lot of time on the road, leaving more time for actually
meeting with customers. Should the applicant want other lines as well, we
know several other lines that are hiring, which he or she also could
represent. Our strong relationship with these companies means that our
recommendation practically guarantees the rep hire with them as well. If you
know someone who is interested, the task is simple: they simply give me a
call at the office and we have an informal chat about options. We gear the
exact position around the applicant, thereby reducing stress and creating a
strong team relationship from the very beginning that works for everyone
involved. To reach me directly, call me at 1-800-633-6451 ext. 178.   It's a
great position at a great company. 

 

I look forward to talking to someone through you soon. Have a great day! Let
us know how we can support your society in the near future.

 

Sincerely yours,

 

Ryan

 

 

 

Ryan,

 

The opportunities you have outlined in the note below sound very
interesting.  I have forwarded your note onto a number of individuals in our
Society.  I was curious about the positions and was wondering if you have
more information that you could share with me about them?  If so, is there
the ability to email it to me?

Dear Clay,

I have recently come across your organization and it seems likely you may
have some upper-end men and women with strong aquatic backgrounds interested
in working within the pet/aquarium industry. I am mailing you with the hope
of finding intelligent, articulate, goal-oriented folks who would make a
great addition to the Fritz Team. Fritz is a great employer with competitive
pay and good benefits. The team here is spectacular. The company has a
wonderful program that encourages long-term employment and professional
growth. Many of the men and women who work here have been with the company
over a decade. Our Production Manager has been with the company over 20
years, our Operations Manager has been here 10 years, our Customer Service
Manager has been here 20 years, our R&D president has been here over 10
years. Few pet companies can boast such obvious employee satisfaction! Yet
there are many young men and women (such as myself) who are not 'old school'
or 'old minded'. Fritz Weisend, our CEO, encourages every single person in
the company to openly communicate ideas. No one goes ignored. For this
reason, our company has one of the highest sales growth rates in the nation
(over 20% annually). For the 2002 season, we have over 10 new products
debuting, a new color catalogue, some great promotional programs for stores
and more. For the right person, Fritz is a great company to work for. Three
separate divisions share a multi-million dollar R&D facility. Millions of
dollars in annual sales, a strong sales network and a commitment to quality
and customer care make Fritz Industries a very worthy employer. 

We've recently decided to expand our sales department and have 9 positions
currently available throughout the country. We have an opening for a
microbiologist and for a Aquaculture specialist. All positions allow for
professional growth and promotion. Potential positions include regional
salesmen and distributor rep, and several Regional Sales Coordinator
positions are also available. We are looking for men and women with a STRONG
aquatic background. We want people who care about the animals, are honest
and ethical and ideally have some sales experience under their belts. 

What are your thoughts? Does your club have any members that are active
salesmen for pet companies now? Maybe you know someone who isn't appreciated
for their hard work and positive attitude. Maybe a young fish store worker
who is ready to take the next step towards a rewarding career. Would you
consider adding a "blip" to your news letter or website to help us get the
word out? 

You have the ability to help someone you know find a long-term employer that
will treat them like gold.

I know that you have a finger to the pulse of the hobby. Any information or
help that you could give me would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to
discussing this with you further. Should you have any ideas for me, please
forward them via email to petsales@fritzind.com  or give me a ring at
800-633-6451 ext. 178.  I sincerely appreciate your time, ideas and (of
course) working with your organization in the future.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Ryan Petersen

Sales Coordinator
