• KPI & Roster Oversight: Set strict daily activation targets (conversion rates, sampling-to-sales ratios, trial giveaways) and audit store activations to maximize ROI.

4. Strategic Guidance to Marketing & E-Commerce Teams

• Brand & Trade Marketing Alignment: Partner directly with the internal marketing team to co-design trade marketing assets (Wobblers, Shelf-talkers, Standees, End-cap displays) tailored to Vietnamese supermarket layouts.
• E-Commerce Strategy Coordination: Provide commercial guidance to the E-Commerce team (Shopee Mall, TikTok Shop, LazMall, Vinbarista/Cubes platforms) on bundle strategies (e.g., 5-pack 0.2L school bundles, mixed flavor trial boxes).
• Channel Conflict Prevention: Oversee promotional calendars to ensure online discounts and live-stream flash sales do not breach offline Modern Trade price minimums.
