Hello:
I am writing to let you know that I am currently looking to broaden the base of firms that I could work for as an “Independent Retail Consultant.” I am a highly effective professional who has excellent prior experience within various sectors of the Retail Industry. I have been a successful “Independent Retail Consultant” for the past 5 years primarily due to my 22 + years of experience working in the Retail Industry in various capacities which include positions at the home offices of companies, as well as “Store Operations” positions in the field which include being a Regional Vice-President of Retail Store Operations for a Fortune 500 company where I was responsible for a 10 state region that does in excess of $900M/Yr. in sales volume. Over the years, I have gained “Invaluable Relevant Sources Of Expertise” by having the privilege of developing strong bonds with former colleagues over the years who now work at the Home Offices, as well as out in the field for many of the companies I consult about. These relationships serve as relevant sources that enable me to gain key insight as to what is going on with certain companies, as well as to keep abreast of “Current & Future Retail Trends.” My clients are based in the “Financial Investment Community”, and most of them are “Analysts” at: Major Hedge Funds, Mutual Funds, Private Equity Firms, and many are “Financial Portfolio Managers” at Major Investment Firms.
I am a highly organized individual who utilizes all available resources possible to ensure that my knowledge of various retail topics, as well as various retailers, is consistently at an “Expert Level.” I utilize all available resources in a very “tenacious” & “consistent” fashion to stay in-tune with what is going on in the “Retail Industry” as it pertains to key issues such as: Company’s EPS Estimates, Investment Recommendation Performance, Key Competitive Retail Strategies, Key Retail Categories, Retail Technology, Retail Merchandising & Retail Marketing, Retail Sourcing. I take great pride in the fact that I have maintained a 100% “Client Feedback Rating” over the years, as well as the fact that I have several repeat clients including some that I speak with every week. Also, I possess solid qualitative, and quantitative research, and analysis experience. Below, I have inserted an overview of my past experiences, and expertise, along with a “Biography/ Profile” of myself in the Retail Industry. I am confident that I could be an asset to your company, and work in a very professional manner with your clients. I appreciate your time, and consideration, and hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
Greg Anstett
