Marketing activities need to be performed in a scientific way in each period of process, from market research, market selection, customer research to the suitable marketing Therefore, some specific solutions such as: Firstly, to promote the bank and its new products, bracnh should be more active to contact as many customers as possible Beside the traditional advertising channels, the Branch should use the internet and social networks Currently, the promotion of service products is very popular and highly effective, especially the bank can completely filter the customer suitable for each type of product that the bank want to advertise Secondly, marketing supports the limitation of procedures and time in credit activities For example, for customers who need loans, there are very few customers using "Register Loans online" of the bank service to provide basic information to the bank This service is intended to reduce the time and documentation required However, there are not many customers know about this so the promotion of marketing activities will make many customers know about this services and partly solve the problem of time and procedures in credit activity Thirdly, due to the flexibility of the Internet and social networking, branch should also deploy Fanpage on social networks to be able to answer questions about download by : skknchat@gmail.com 66 the products even after working time Moreover, the Brach will have more opportunities to approach and advise existing customers thereby attracting more potential customers 3.3 Recommendation 3.3.1 Recommendation to the State Along with the development of a market economy with the macro management of the State, according to socialist orientation, the role of macro management of the State is increasingly

have more opportunities to sell their products and services Therefore the operation of the enterprises will develop as well Secondly, the State should build more complete legal regulations to facilitate the activities of banks and businesses At present, the legal system has not been finalized, stable and continuously revised, making it difficult for banks to have a solid basis for working 3.3.2 Recommendation to the State Bank Firstly, the State Bank of Vietnam should modernize the bank with modern technologies to meet the needs of customers in a convenient and flexible way, step by step bringing the Vietnamese banking industry into international integration and create opportunities to compete with foreign banks in Vietnam Secondly, in the recent years, there have been a number of incidents that have led to a decline in the belief of the people Therefore, the State Bank should strengthen inspection and control over commercial banks, build a strong inspection apparatus in

that point also see the unreasonable points in the legal documents of the State Bank to make reasonable adjustments 3.3.3 Recommendations to VietinBank Today, in competitive environment, VietinBank
