Along with strategies for building and developing strong brands, Viet TIen also attached great
importance to the protection of its brand Company registered trademark protection in the potential market in the US and Canada
We can say that the Vietnamese brand quite outstanding progress on the domestic market Referring to Viet Tien, consumers think of a reputable brand, quality, extensive product and affordable But for consumers, especially high-end customers, the brand is for class-average income, although this brand has four brands serving luxury class especially for Vee Sendy and TT brands-up little-known customers The main reason is because Viet Tien not paying enough attention in to the promotion and elevate it
Trang 52.3 Product lines of Viet Tien.
The product lines of Viet Tien including: shirts, trousers, vest, tie, accessories, jackets
In general, the products of Viet Tien quite diverse and rich in variety of items In addition to the main products are office clothing, products support are varied to meet many different needs of customers such as hats, bags, belts, Cravat However, there are some downsides as follows:
Most of these products despite diverse design but no breakthrough and creativity
The model is almost similar if there is a change, it will only change slightly
Packaging is still sketchy not match with the brand, especially the high-end products such as Vee Sendy, TT up
No special highlight for products such as fragrance, material, style
Awareness of high-end products is still very low progress of Vietnam, especially the two brands for women's Vee Sendy and TT up
No products for teenagers, although this is a potential customer
Some product from Viet Tien company :
Trang 62.4 Price range:
Trang 7Prices of Viet Tien products are quite diverse depending on the brand On average the price of products from around 100,000 to around 1 million with prices as on the Viet Tien is evaluated as a service brand for customer class-average income Except franchised products from abroad as Mahatan have relatively high price, the remaining product with quite reasonable price and customer acceptance However, Viet Tien should focus on hitting product lines with an average price of about 300-500 thousand to service the middle-management staff due to the price of 1 million or more, the high customer this level tends to use a foreign brand to present class
2.5 Distribution channel
In domestic markets, Viet Tien Company has established a chain of stores distributed throughout the country, with 3 marketing channels include independent stores, dealers and systems through the supermarket system , major commercial centers in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh city Currently, Viet Tien has
an extensive distribution network from Lang Son to Ca Mau with 1,000 points, which has about 500 official dealers, 92 points by the Corporation directly at street retailers, supermarkets and trade Center Despite being one of the garment enterprises have extensive networks However, this channel is quite normal nothing special the store decorate is monotonous,not deep impression on customers
Viet Tien to consolidate existing distribution channels, developing new distribution channels, more modern, in order to meet new needs arising from the clients, for instance home delivery, costume design on request
2.6 The brand communication activities
2.6.1 Promotional activities:
Viet Tien almost do not have an advertising on television such as TVC Media advertising of Viet Tien was primarily the fashion show, introducing new collections, appear in major fashion weeks However, the target customer arriver to this event still low.Because they are successful business people have less time
on the frequented sites Another subject that the young people, they tend to prefer to watch television and listen to radio Attending the fashion week, the most popular show is very rare Thus the level of awareness of these customers for the new products of Viet Tien was very limited
Companies should focus on advertising in the media in the coming period, especially TVC and Internet
2.6.2 Sale season campaign
The promotional activities hardly had not been conducted There is only the activities to attract
customers and increase sales volume when launching a new product
Forms of promotion rather monotonous mostly discounted and donated products attached These forms are also applicable to other companies that increase customer attraction is also limited
It should have the promotional activities more attractive to consumers and create a major conversion costs to retain and maintain customer loyalty for its products
Trang 82.6.3 Community Relations
The community activities of the company are quite diverse and create a good impression on the public
It can be said that Viet Tien is one of the units for community activities are always at the forefront of charitable activities, contributions to society

mothers Vietnam hero, helping 500 students have completed primary particularly difficult situation in -Thai Nguyen Dinh Hoa
In addition the company also donated the Support Housing, the gratitude for the local in remote areas, combined with youth union finance development projects peasant life in the poor delta Cuu Long province , annual funding for the program gracefully Vietnam is held
These activities are related to the high-end target customers such as sponsoring the contest golf, tennis hardly do not happend Viet Tien should pay more attention to activities related to this premium

Trang 103 4A proposed strategy.
3.1Acceptance.
Goal oriented: Product is generated by the client and the client accepts the optimal satisfaction though
in certain segments Viet Tien is a domestic brand prestige and class Products closeness nature more advanced applications and high-end brand in every segment Should the proposed solutions are as follows:
Always maintain product quality, maximum satisfy customer needs Create a "scent
characteristic for advanced products Viet Tien"
=> R & D department must regularly inspect, study and improve product quality in materials, color of dress
Regular study about habits, hobbies of customers to create attributes of products to meet customer demand and adapt to every market share that Viet Tien want to take
=> Hire market research companies or self-organized study of consumer behavior by doing research or a survey of customer feeling when purchase Viet Tien product The survey should be conduct to ask the needs of sellers of Viet Tien as well
Improving the intangible value of the product, the product must reflect the elegance, class, affordable
=> Raising the premium feel through images, messages, advertising and related services For instance: the right services for the premium customer, after sale campaign The packing need to change to become more profession and more high-class to serve this market segment- For rich people
Improve customer service, respond to inquiries, customer complaints quickly, promptly
=> Establishment of a Call Center, room service and customer care Focus on service steps to solve problem could occurs
3.2 Affordability.
Goal oriented: Reasonable price that customers in any segment is already used to paying but at the same time not losing caste was positioning for high-end product line
Always keep a stable price level does not rise too much and discounts As the result of changing price too many time, the customer trust on Viet Tien brand will decrease The price should reasonable for each market segment that Viet Tien want to take and it should related
to quality of product based on the price
In the premium segment when the decision gives a discount promotion program should be carefully considered Because if too much discount will drain away the elegance and class of product Instead there should be for valuable gifts such as : tie, belt… But it must remain the image of the premium brand of Viet Tien
