“I am writing this letter to recommend my former colleague and friend, Allen Weiss, as a sales representative for any company looking to get immediate ROI. Allen was a key component in helping Warwick Allerton Chicago, where I was the former DOSM for two years, transition in between sales managers. During his task force project he had perhaps the best sales record of anyone on the team. He's a diligent worker and a very capable salesman, and I'm sure he'll be as successful an asset at any hotel looking for immediate results.
Allen was tasked with meeting specific sales goals, soliciting and making sales contacts. He was able to forge some excellent customer relationships and facilitate sales that other our previous sales managers simply couldn't. Allen was one of the hardest workers, doing whatever it took to drive business and solidify long lasting relationships for the hotel.
Sales requires a natural skill in dealing with people and knowing the right thing to say, and this was perhaps where Allen set himself apart the most. Clients simply loved him, and he was able to connect with them in a meaningful way. He also played an integral role in training and mentoring the sales managers on my team. His skills, and the results he achieved, make it easy for me to provide the highest recommendation. If I was ever in a position to need a sales project manager again, I would not hesitate to contact Allen Weiss.
I have since left the Warwick Allerton Chicago and am now the Director of Sales & Marketing at the Hilton Chicago | Magnificent Mile Suites. Although we no longer work together in a professional capacity, Allen has become one of my closest friends and most trusted industry colleagues.”
