My name is Tracy Peralta, you will find most of my work experience and education listed under Tracy Pryor, or Tracy Anderson. First, I will familiarize you with my education background. I am currently taking classes through American Intercontinental University (AIU) with a major in Business Administration. I have earned my Associate’s Degree in Business Administration over the last months through AIU, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration also at AIU which I will earn by August of this year (). Previous education includes a high school diploma from Rushville High School in Rushville, Illinois. I also have some years of college at Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois, Quincy University in Quincy, Illinois, and New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, New Mexico where I was able to fill most of my general required credits at these established universities.
My work experience is somewhat long and detailed which I will touch on briefly in this letter of introduction, but more specifics are provided on the following resume. I have been in retail management since the age of twenty years old, my first retail job being the operation of the establishment known as B. Dalton Booksellers, currently known as Barnes & Noble Booksellers. I was involved in every aspect of the retail book business from customer service all the way to making a yearly budget for the location. My current job is working for Texas Book Company, which is currently contracted with New Mexico Tech for the privilege of running the retail bookstore on campus. Throughout my career I have worked for several well established retail corporations like Phillips , Barnes & Noble Booksellers, Hastings Books, Music, and Video, of which I have had the privilege of experiencing every aspect of store management up to and including opening a new facility for Phillips , as well as Texas Book Company. I have learned through my + years of retail management how to inspire people, listen to them, work with them, teach them to use their best skills and improve upon them. I have learned how to build a store from the ground up, literally, prepare accurate and realistic budgets for them, take charge of the inventory from the bottom up, been trained in loss prevention techniques, motivational tool and skills, as well as ethical management issues. I have also learned excellent accounting and finance techniques, dealt with all personnel and human resources issues including hiring, actively recruiting candidates, training them and reviewing their work performance, as well as motivating them and keeping them goal oriented.
I am currently seeking employment with a company that is looking for a strong leader, very goal oriented and creative, extremely organized and efficient, with an excellent mind for business, and the capability to look at an organization and see where it needs improvement, how it can change or upgrade the system it is currently working with, whether it is a training issue or a motivational issue, or the need for a different or more advanced and efficient computer system, or simply planning a more realistic budget, or improving upon customer relations and how the customer is reached. I work very well with people, and have the capability to inspire and motivate where needed, or fine tune if need be. Simply put, I would like to apply all the years of hands on experience I have gained working in smoothly functioning retail environment for many years, hand in hand with my Bachelor’s degree to accomplish great things for your company. My advantage is the years of experience I have already gained in business management and my knowledge and expertise that I apply day in and day out to a well run and profitable business, combined with the education I have gained through AIU’s Business Administration program. Together, these things contribute toward making me a very strong and extremely qualified candidate for any business opportunity that may be available with your company.
I look forward to hearing from you about any opportunities you may have that would apply to my experience and knowledge. Thank you for your time and consideration.
