Daniel sent a message to Craig Monaghan – President and Chief Executive Officer of Asbury Automotive Group – Email Address that said:
Mr. Monaghan
My name is Daniel , I am a previous employee for you and Asbury. I worked under Casey Coffey when he was your MD in Atlanta, as a internet Director at Nalley Hyundai, when you first bought it. I then was moved to Nalley Infiniti (Decatur) in the same role. I worked there though three General managers and resigned on the third GM,
I am emailing you to let you know I have ventured out some and have come to find out ASBURY is a great company, as good as it gets. I worked under Mr. Dan Clara after Casey moved to "Q" Cars and was very pleased with Dan. He has helped me many times. I am emailing you to let you know I would like to be considered for a Internet manager position again if possible, BUT would like to hear from you what the career path with this position is? I tried to "move up" within your company, but could never really get a answer to what is next once you are a successful internet manager? I have also read that Asbury offers a MIT program? Is this something I maybe a candidate for now or in the future? Mr. Monaghan I was going to go back and work for Steve Reed at Nalley Hyundai in sales, just a few months ago, but I just felt I was taking such a huge step backwards? I know you do not know me, but Mr. Clara knows of me and several of your GMs and GSMs know of me. I am at the point where I am looking for a career. I would like to work for your company and work my way to a GSM position, then Asbury believes I'm ready I would like to work toward a ASBURY GM position. I believe coming back as a Internet director would be the best bet so I can proved myself. I am emailing you because I have learned that the guys at the top (like you and Dan) are the dirt movers, and get things done! Please let me know if you have any openings at any of your Atlanta Stores for a internet manager, or Floor manager, and if you will please let me know about the MIT program Asbury offers!
I hope it was OK to email you? I would have called Mr. Clara, but I got a new phone and no longer have his cell number. Plus I wanted to introduce myself to you. All I ask from you and Asbury is a shot to prove myself and not to be looked over once I shine. I hope I can be welcomed back into the family, and If needed I can wait if there is not a position open that will work. Thank you for your time.
Have a powerful and positive Day!
Daniel
