I am excited to apply for the Outside Sales Representative position at Uline, as advertised. With over two decades of experience in customer relationship management, sales, and business operations, I am confident in my ability to contribute to Uline's continued growth and success. Uline’s commitment to building trust-based relationships and delivering exceptional service aligns perfectly with my own values and career experience.

As the owner and operator of two retail businesses, I have honed my ability to build and maintain strong customer relationships, identify growth opportunities, and consistently deliver excellent service. At Link & Pin, I led all aspects of the business, from sales and marketing to customer service and operations.

I am particularly drawn to the opportunity Uline offers in allowing sales representatives to act as the “CEO” of their own territory. My entrepreneurial background makes me well-suited for this kind of autonomy, where I can manage and grow existing accounts, while also bringing in new business. I am eager to embrace the challenge of providing business solutions to a wide variety of industries, with the full support of Uline’s top-tier products and training.
