Travel Seminar at the Headquarter of Tiens Group


Report on the training for Tiens people from East-Europe
As the training for Tiens people who come from Indonesia just completed, 120 Tiens people coming from East-Europe followed, and they successively visited beautiful Beijing city and the Headquarter of Tiens Group, the “home” they’ve been looking forward to for a long time with the passion toward TIENS business and aspiration toward Chinese culture.
This training made Tiens people in East-European further realize Chinese culture, and set their confidence up to TIENS business. For the purpose to get a better training effect, Jessica, a trainer from Malaysia and Wang Minxian, a trainer from Product Management Department were invited by the Arts & communication Dept. of Global Marketing Center to give a special training on Product and Health for two days.

Trainers was given a warmly welcome by Tiens colleagues
Firstly Jessica explained the details of traditional Chinese Health Care combining with the efficacy of TIENS products. Her presentation helped Tiens colleagues understand TIENS products more deeply and of course would help these products to be used appropriately. Her explanation on the concept “eliminating, regulating, supplementing and preventing” illustrated the classification selling points of Tiens products clearly among Tiens colleagues. Finally a course on encouragement and elicitation was given to the colleagues as a special part of the training. Needless to say, the intelligible and practical presentation of trainer Jessica was praised by everyone.
Beauty care product is an important part in the selling of TIENS products, and Tiens colleagues were eager to know the new product Prime U. Trainer Wang Minxian's professional and practical presentation not only met the colleagues' demands but also built a foundation for beauty care products' selling in future.
Everyone had benefited much from the training, and said they would apply the knowledge learnt to their business promotion so as to make a further contribution to TIENS business in the future. After the training ended, many colleagues didn't leave and they came to Trainer Jessica and Wang Minxian for problems met in their business and life, and both trainers answered their questions very patiently.
We believe the talents in East-Europe will devote themselves into the TIENS business with bigger enthusiasm in the future, and the East-Europe region will be developed to be a new bright spot. Let us wait and see what will happen!
