Nobody will remember:
- your salary

People will remember:

When it comes to query letters, agents' hearts REALLY get pumping over the following three things done well:
1. Concept (especially if it's something truly unique)
2. Character (SPECIFIC hopes, dreams, fears, and misbeliefs)
3. Stakes (what's lost if the MC fails?)
A great concept makes an agent believe they can sell the book because it'll stand out in an acquiring editor's inbox.
Clear character stuff is what agents get emotionally attached to.
Stakes are what get them to read the pages ("Holy crap, I've GOT to see how this all plays out").
If you can master these three things in a way that's clear, brief, and specific, you've officially won Query Letters.
