Vinaphone's mobile market share ranks second after Viettel network VinaPhone's main competitor, Viettel, still retains its dominant position with 52% market share Market share of the Personal Customer Department compared to other networks To gain the market share of lost Vinaphone, first of all, it is necessary to perfect the system of distribution channels of Vinaphone prepaid products at the Personal Customer Department Distribution system with the role of linking manufacturers with consumers, it affects profit, price, as well as other benefits for consumers when choosing quality products, Price is suitable for demand Therefore, the distribution channel becomes one of the effective means of competition VinaPhone is one of three mobile service providers with the largest market share in Vietnam, in which the Personal Customer Department manages the northern region Recognizing the role of distribution channels in modern business, in the past time, the Personal Customer Department has paid much attention to this issue To ensure the mission and business of distribution system of VinaPhone services are covered widely, meeting the demand of using social services + Jobs for channel members to believe in the service quality of the Personal Customer Department is just as important as persuading customers The Personal Customer Department needs to show intermediaries that they deliver reputable supplier products Their beliefs will be transmitted to customers and more convincing than advertising messages This can be done through the distribution of journals introducing the potential of the Personal Customer Department, the operation of the Personal Customer Department then organizing a contest to find out the agents to learn about the Board Individual customers + For channel members who not complete sales according to regulations, the Personal Customer Board can consider the difficulties of members and help them continue to be distributors of the Personal Customer Department according to another form (signing agency contract level with VTTT) 3.2.4 Promote mixed promotion policies This can be said to be the most important policy of companies in the field of mobile information when services, distribution channels of companies are increasingly similar, price is equivalent and price policy is planned by the Group 3.2.4.1 Advertisement Advertising in recent years is considered to be highly effective, but in business conditions with strong competition Individual Customer Boards need to implement advertising programs scientifically based on a thorough study of the consumer behavior of the target customer, specifically: - Advertising should emphasize the expansion of the network with the quality of the network, especially the quality of 3G / 4G, reaching 5G These are the leading factors for consumer information network selection In advertising, it is necessary to give specific figures on the total number of base stations and the total number of 3G / 4G stations - Advertising also needs to emphasize new services such as ezCom, online services - Enhancing advertising on mass media, especially television and newspapers, 83 advertising at rush hour and impressive advertising content - Maintain large billboards in places with high traffic density, carry out advertisements on vehicles such as taxis, buses - Need to have a plan to summarize, analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of periodic advertising activities (quarterly and annually) to draw experience to plan for the next period -The Personal Customers Departement also needs to enhance propaganda to create trust among customers, motivate them to buy goods, attracting goods out of the channel because service is a product that is difficult to perceive quality, so the effect of advertising is great VinaPhone has an advantage over other competitors, such as the system of post offices, transaction points of VTTT and VNPOST, but this is also a weakness because many people still think of the bureaucratic image of the time-trading ladies subsidy, an ancient image for a modern service Therefore, the task of advertising in the provincial market must change the perception of customers Individual Customer Boards may use existing advertisements or build new ads if existing ads are not appropriate for certain localities 3.2.4.2 Promotion The Personal Customers Departement needs specific operational plans recommended by the Company such as: - Implementing local promotions for each area, with appropriate policies for each area to achieve the highest results - Organize promotional programs on the occasion of the establishment of the Company, the Personal Customers Departement as well as special occasions and celebrations - Develop promotion programs in important sports occasions of the country, region and the world - Free add some extra services - The Personal Customers Departement can also perform promotions for intermediaries when there is no promotion for customers to keep sales stable 84 However, it is not necessary to organize regular promotions because it will reduce motivation and cause psychological waiting for other promotions The intermediaries, if they know the rules of promotion, can store goods that create fake consumption 4.2.4.3 Participate in social activities Improve the awareness of VinaPhone brand in customers, improve the level of service preference, thereby improve the competitiveness that is implemented in the most effective way through social activities, public relations activities Here are some solutions to further improve this work: - It is necessary to actively participate in more and more exhibition exhibitions about the Company, the Personal Customers Department both in the country and abroad about the services currently being provided and intended to be provided in the near future - Strengthening the image of the Personal Customers Departement through gratitude activities, especially activities launched by mass media - A marketing information system is also essential to serve market activities, customer retention and support other production and business activities This activity may propose the Company to implement or through another intermediary company 3.2.5 Some other support solutions In order for the channel of distribution of high-performance mobile information services, it is possible to combine other tools as follows: 3.2.5.1 Improve network quality and customer service: Quality of service is always stable and guaranteed, the reputation of suppliers will increase the trust and cooperation of intermediaries, increase the customers' love, create good publicity for the service It is recommended to eliminate products that start in the recession phase of the product life cycle if this product complicates management, costing both the Personal and Intermediate Customer Department when it is required Product maintenance in the distribution list (eg Vinadaily 85 product) In the past, continuously expanding the coverage area, installing more new broadcasting stations, especially the 3G / 4G stations, signing the roaming contract with MobiFone network has made the quality of VinaPhone's waves improve and meet All customers have high requirements In the near future, the number of subscribers is close to saturation, along with tightening up prepaid subscribers by the provisions of Circular 04 of the Ministry of Information and Communications, which entices customers to stay online only is network quality and service quality 3.2.5.2 The expiry date of scratch cards High-value scratch cards show the encouragement of consumers to use highvalue cards, but customers still prefer to use a card with a face value of VND 100,000 due to their budget Therefore, it is recommended that the Company issue cards of VND 120,000 or VND 150,000 to replace the first 100,000 cards After a while the customer sees the money and the benefits received between the 150 and 150 cards are much different and they will use the 200 card 3.2.5.3 Enhance the ability of the sales force in supporting agents Sales staff is a force that directly contacts with agents, offers products of the Personal Customer Department, acknowledges orders, on behalf of the Personal Customer Board in monitoring, monitoring and collecting information Feedback, respond to inquiries of agents, propose solutions to support agents The Personal Customer Department should focus on building, coaching and managing this team because they are the agents of managing agents Sales staff must not only be sufficient in quantity but also ensure the quality, understand the policies of the Personal Customer Department, understand the products and services, have the sales skills Individual Customer Committee should consider: - Funding for business staff to participate in short-term training courses to improve necessary knowledge and skills such as time management, communication skills in business, effective negotiation art, problem solving skills Sales staff 86 registered courses expected to participate in the year, specifically the level of course fees After completing the course, the certificate and receipts will be returned to the Personal Customer Department to pay the fee - Recommend the Company to organize a sales force conference throughout the Company every year The company-wide sales force conference should be held at the same time as the Company's holiday so as not to interrupt the business The purpose of the conference is to stimulate business employees to achieve better results in the future, to cultivate and communicate sales and conference situations and experiences that are also a source of supply for the main business staff New books of the Company, new products, plans, information on the competitive situation in the industry - Encourage sales staff to travel long-term in the region to increase opportunities for direct contact, to grasp difficulties in each area 3.2.5.4 Improve the quality of customer care In the current condition, the quality of customer care is a significant competitive advantage among mobile networks Customer care work at the Personal Customer Department is associated with the strategic goal of the Personal Customer Department The Personal Customer Department should consider the following issues to further improve the quality of customer care -Revision of complaint settlement process so that the departments receive feedback from customers and the processing department more smoothly Overcoming customer comments on service quality and satisfying customer requirements for services in the shortest time - It is necessary to have a uniform and smooth direction between VTTT and the Department of Personal Customers in the context of a customer care network with a combination of two units 3.2.5.5 Improve quality and expand the lookup feature on the intranet Currently, the Personal Customer Department has built an internal network (CCBS) so that employees and members of the channel can look up, register and 87 perform customer care tasks, but the quality of the network The net is not good For effective management tools, this system must be upgraded On the other hand, the business team with enough online data to serve the research, evaluation and market orientation needs to expand the research functions such as: - Newly developed subscribers in each area, the structure of subscribers - The number of subscribers does not arise or charge less - Subscribers with two-way locking and risk of leaving the network - Revenue accounts - Sales of card Based on the above data, sales staff will analyze and propose reasonable incentive policies for each stage and each customer 88 CONCLUDE In production and business activities, every business is not only interested in producing products, how much is it going to market, and how to have an promotion program, but also to
