Dear Sir/Madam:

I would like to advertise our company requesting for capital funding and am in a business partnership and future marriage with an American National.

We are a world class travel agent and would like to venture into selling customized package tours to any part of the world and specialize in convention and events organizing to the Philippines. TEO is a stellar company that provides premium expertise and professional service. We thrive in the travel trade because of impeccable reputation, with high credibility, high dynamism, high income, high yield, and high profile. We are growing to become the global and multilingual travel consolidator to surpass the existing giants and grandfathers in the business. We will focus on encouraging tourists to go to the Philippines. I have expertise in the travel trade 17 years-working for 14 years with the Philippine Department of Tourism and co-owning a travel agency for 3 years.

I am conversant in 4 languages-French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, aside from mastery of the English language. I have experience in guiding diplomatic guests, dignitary state guests, and handling VIPs on the job at the Department of Tourism. I have traveled to almost all tourist attractions in all of the provinces in the Philippines-north to south.

I have expertise and wide experience in other fields as well: I am a published Writer for technical documents like the DOT Annual Reports 1988-1995, a published Consultant Writer for a business magazine, a Planning Officer, a Documenter for USAID, also as Translator/Interpreter, the PR Coordinator for Miss Earth 2007 Pageant, Research Executive interviewing CEOs for global projects like a 60 country survey of the former President Jimmy Carter organized by the Price Waterhouse Coopers through AC Nielsen where I was the sole person doing the interviews for 30 CEOs of companies in the Philippines.

My credentials and accomplishments in the travel trade and other commerce, punctuates the fact that a client would choose my company over the giant and grandfather travel agents in the trade.

I am hoping to merit your favorable response on the matter of my funding request, otherwise, be our most valued client.

Very respectfully yours,

Ms. Edess P. Amador
COO/CFO
