I tried to phone you this past week, but have not been able to connect. I realize that your time is valuable, so I am writing to you individually. I was given your name because at some time in the past you used BackgroundsUSA's employment screening services. If you can spare just a few minutes to read further, I would like to introduce you to brand new range of FREE online employment screening services that we are rolling out this year that will drastically improve the way that you screen your job applicants!
   
APPLICATIONBOARD - We have developed a very sophisticated and flexible online applicant processing system called APPLICATIONBOARD that can be customized to your unique needs. In these tight economic times, are you being required to further CUT YOUR HIRING COSTS?  If so, please read on!  
   
WHAT IS APPLICATIONBOARD? - It is made up of three things: an Online Application Form; an Automatic Scoring system that helps identify the best prospective hires; an optional Pre-Screening system that runs a basic background check on the most suitable applicants, and then lets you pick the best of those for a full employment screening check. Feel free to advertise widely online and NOT be swamped by a mass of unqualified applicants! APPLICATIONBOARD automates the initial screening process.
   
The best part? These tools are provided to you for FREE! You ONLY pay for the background screening services that we provide for the applicants that you decide to proceed with.
   
HOW DOES IT WORK? - The system accepts applications online, and then SCORES them using a suite of time-proven criteria. With the applicants scored and ranked, it is easy for HR Managers to focus on the applicants that have the highest potential to be good employees for your company.  The online application form is customizable to suit your application, and we find that, quite literally, just "correctly" filling in the online form is often the best application test for employment! 
   
The combination of speed and economy allows you to decrease employee turnover by hiring the best in the candidate pool before they accept another company's offer. We promise lower costs, quick error-free processing, and above all, accuracy and dependability.
   
WHO ARE WE? - I work for a nationwide background screening company that for the past 15 years has been performing background checks mainly for Armored Car Companies and other cash handling companies. For that entire time we have been custom tailoring our operations to better fulfill the requirements and needs of the people we serve.
   
SPEED AND ECONOMY - We have spent two years developing and refining this online job application system in order to improve the efficiency of employment screening, dramatically cutting the costs of hiring for positions that have high turnover. We are completely focused on providing background screening solutions that are economical and fast. We aim to keep your screening costs to an absolute minimum, and turnaround times short, BUT not by sacrificing quality (no short-cuts using inaccurate and out-of-date criminal record databases).
    

MAY WE SHOW YOU THIS SYSTEM? - We would like you to try this system and run a few applicants at NO COST so we can show you its benefits. To preview its features online, please click here. I would like to make a very short presentation to show you how the system can benefit you and allow you to run a few applicants free of charge in comparison to your current process.  I would like to call you next week to schedule a time to talk, or please feel free to respond immediately to this e-mail.

Sincerely yours,
