PREEACE Complex planning, organizing, leading, and regulating circumstances are frequently encountered in sales management It is the fear of every business in the globe Furthermore, every member of our team has a great deal of knowledge and experience with this issue We decided to focus on this topic and use it as the focal point of our group project after exchanging romantic messages throughout the lectures
Moreover, there are no accidents We cannot succeed in this group project if we do not extend our boundaries Many thanks for it The teacher who constantly instructs us in sales management is PHAN MINH TUAN The examples in the course are really clear The words are easy to remember It is common for us to feel free in the Lord's Garden That was the most exhilarating feeling we have ever had, and we will always remember
it
We can't thoroughly correct all of the small errors and omissions in the topic because there are only so many sites available to us However, to get the best results for Ly Qui Trung - The Men of Overcoming Adversity - we constantly try our hardest and memorize everything by heart

d Working spirit
Independent, not depending on family Although he came from a wealthy and wealthy family, Ly Quy Trung did not rely on his family to start his entrepreneurial journey
In 1982, after failing the university entrance exam, he had to apply for a job as a waiter at
De Nhat Hotel, in Ho Chi Minh City During that time, he did many jobs from cleaning houses, cleaning toilets, being a waiter, working as a switchboard operator, and then working as a receptionist day and night
Even though he had not yet entered college at that time, the young man was still determined to go to school and work because he believed that learning to read would open a new chapter in his life In 1990, that belief became a reality when a foreign guest helped and sponsored the young man Ly Qui Trung to go to Australia to study English for four months After 3 years, he graduated with a Bachelor of Hotel and Restaurant Management from Western Sydney University This was the beginning of his future success
He isn’t afraid of suffering, not afraid of difficulties, and always keeps the spirit of learning from the work he has done
During his time working at the hotel, Ly Quy Trung does not hesitate to do jobs such as cleaning, helping in the kitchen, clearing tables, operating the switchboard, and working
as a receptionist These are jobs that it seems a rich young man would never touch However, Ly Quy Trung did not rely on himself being a rich child and was afraid to accept those jobs
Trang 14In an interview with Saigon Entrepreneur newspaper in March 2022, Ly Quy Trung shared that he likes to divide his ttme working mn Vietnam and Australia “I returned to
my home country to work for a while and will continue to fly back and forth between Australia and Vietnam for some university education-related work”
3 High sense of responsibility, working to contribute to the homeland and the fatherland, never forgetting his origin
It was still an interview with Saigon Entrepreneur newspaper, when asked by the reporter: "Leaving to return Perhaps you are someone who understands this saying and it also has value for you when looking back at your homeland"? Ly Quy Trung happily answered that:
“T never really left because I always looked back to my homeland The proof is that although I have lived and worked in Australia, my personal Facebook page is written entirely in Vietnamese to share with friends and communities in Vietnam In my daily work in Australia, whenever I see something interesting, I wonder if I can share it or introduce it to Vietnam
It's only natural, water always flows downstream, and Vietnamese people always think about their country And I want my children to be the same, always looking towards their homeland, at least in their souls, food, and language”
e The perspective of Ly Qui Trung on the sales
Business or being an entrepreneur is also a special profession, some people are suitable for it, others are not, not just having a little experience and capital can do it
Starting a business or starting a business requires a lot of flexibility You have to use one end to cover the other Take the short and keep the long Use softness to overcome hardness In general, you have to know how to go outside the lines regularly to survive and succeed
The improvisation, going outside of the rules and practices, helps entrepreneurs make a difference to succeed in the market
Making a difference with the rest of the crowd - no matter where it happens along the way from the beginning of the formation of ideas to the release of the product and
Trang 15reaching the consumer - has the mark of creativity, imovation, and most importantly, the mark of voluntariness, courage, daring to take risks alone
Simple management experience is not enough, but business management experience, or
at least like business, like mnovation, breakthrough, and creativity
2 Goal, Difficult ties encountered, and solution
c Solving difficulties
In entrepreneurship, avoiding failure is not always possible! Some young individuals, despite lacking experience, believe that their product is guaranteed to be excellent and competitive against existing market products However, in business, if one thinks their product is great, thousands of others think the same about theirs
"No matter how good a product is, success 1s challenging to achieve Success lies in the business model, not just the product,” shared Mr Trung If you lack experience, it is advisable to intern with someone else before using your resources to accumulate
