Pros

Truly global exposure with cross-regional collaboration opportunities (HK, China, Vietnam, Korea etc.) Empowering leadership that allows ownership and independent decision-making. A clear focus on performance, with regular recognition for results. Dynamic environment with diverse products – online marketplace + international trade shows. Open culture where ideas are encouraged and implemented quickly Attractive incentive structure with unlimited earning potential for sales performers.

Cons

During peak trade show seasons, workload can increase, but it also brings great learning and exposure. Brand visibility in certain markets is still developing, offering room for proactive local outreach.
