and in Rites of Passage at $100,000 to $1 Million+ ...
America's and the world's #1 best-selling executive career guide,
we write resumes and cover letters that align with those strategies.
Executive Cover Letters
Cover letters are an essential ingredient in your self-marketing
program and should be equally as powerful as your resume. Numerous
job advertisements request "excellent verbal and written communication
skills." Therefore, your cover letter needs to demonstrate your
written communication skills. To position you as a professional
who can help a company succeed in its endeavors, we will create
an results-driven cover letter that arouses interest and showcases
your areas of experience and expertise.
Cover letter writing ranges from $195 - $225
Executive Bio, Leadership Initiatives,
Performance Highlights, Career Milestones, Value Statements
These narrative documents are used to showcase accomplishments,
pioneering initiatives, thought leadership, case studies, project
histories, and more.. They provide more detailed information
that will help support your candidacy while allowing your resume
to remain within the customary boundaries for content, format
and length.
Salary History / Performance Document
A salary history can be used as a marketing piece as well. This
is where you can really prove, in hard dollars and cents, how
valuable you've been to other employers. Proper marketing of
your promotions, bonuses and commissions can win you the position.
While it is not recommended that you blindly submit this information,
you should take it with you to the interview. Should the interviewer
hire you at the first interview, you'll be prepared with a salary
negotiating tool.
Salary History development ranges from $175 - $200
Executive-Style
Reference Document
A reference page should provide accurate, detailed contact information.
Interviewers don't have time to look up missing information,
and will quickly set your resume aside and move on to the next
candidate while perhaps never getting back to your reference
page. The executive-style reference list is a marketing tool
that will guide the interviewer to ask questions that will reinforce
your accomplishments.
Investment varies depending upon number of references $195
to $250
Personal Brand Development

your peers. You need to express your unique selling point and
value proposition. As a branding strategist, we'll work with

Thank You Letters

decision. If two or three candidates are in contention for a

concerns, and reminds the hiring agent of your style, will definitely
position you as a person who is persistent and follows through.
