Dear John Letter
CISA
This “Dear John” letter, or one like it, should be used by all candidates that use our 18 Day Program and have received no response from an email of the narrative or the snail mailing of the Tri-Fold to the prospective employer after the second week.
We recommend that you send this one last note as closure technique. Many executives are so busy with the day-to-day operations of the company; that “TIME and OPPORTUNITY” often eludes them. The “business of business” often gets in the way of business. Many of these same executives have their heads down so long, that they run right into a wall in front of them, repeatedly. This note below; therefore becomes your last opportunity to get that prospect to respond to you. Some guilt trips work, others do not.
Dear John,
Thank you for taking the time to look at the Tri-Fold Brochure that I sent you. Other executives have expressed interest; I cannot help but to assume that you were also impressed. I do understand how busy you are, however, I would love to be able speak with you. Could we speak on (day).@ .(time).; or if another time is better for you please let me know. Looking forward to your immediate response!
Enclosed is another copy of my Tri-Fold Brochure.
I look forward to speaking with you soon.
Regards,
Horatio
You can also add one of the following two sentences; these take you right to the line of aggressive vs. abrasive.
1. "You may want to hire me just to get me off the street, so we don't end up competing with you."
2. "Think of speaking with me as a great investment of time!" The ROI is obvious.
You are an advocate of a “product” you believe in, SELL it.
You can also think of sending a WANTED poster. Hope this information has been helpful.
The “get THAT NEXT job!” is very aggressive program. Our job is to get you noticed!
“get THAT NEXT job!” Inc, Transition Compass, DCG, its agents, owners, employees and vendors will be held harmless.
