# Salute to All FMCG Salespeople Across the Country!

> In China's sales industry, the largest sales force is the 'FMCG salespeople,' including those from FMCG companies, distributors, and dealers. Their daily work involves facing dealers, distributors, and end customers, tirelessly communicating and explaining to sell products for compensation. Most of them are not from privileged backgrounds; they can only rely on themselves. Their ages range from young newcomers to those around sixty. Despite hardships, they persist for life, dreams, and company development, deserving our respect.

In China's sales industry, the largest sales force is the 'FMCG salespeople.' This group includes salespeople from FMCG companies, distributors, and dealers. Their main daily work is to face dealers, distributors, and end customers, tirelessly communicating and explaining to sell their products to customers in exchange for corresponding compensation.
Most of these people are neither children of officials nor wealthy second-generation; they lack the capital to rely on family connections, so they can only rely on themselves! Their ages range from young newcomers to those around sixty. Due to the nature of the industry, their working environment is not as glamorous as salespeople in other industries who wear suits, travel by plane and high-speed rail, and frequent star-rated hotels and entertainment venues. Instead, they ride small electric bikes, tricycles, or drive small vans and box trucks to customers' companies or shops for sales pitches.
In the scorching summer, for the sake of performance, they brave wind and rain, sweating profusely every day, with clothes wet then dry, then wet again; before the hottest days, they are already tanned dark and shiny. In the freezing winter, for performance, they brave wind and snow, crawling over ice and lying in snow, rushing about in the biting cold, with the north wind cutting like a knife on their faces. The real challenges go far beyond these! Besides overcoming the harsh natural environment, they must also face customers' difficulties and prejudices.
**You say we are bitter, tears fly for tasks;**
**You say we are tired, hearts break for payments;**
**You say we are annoyed, large stocks unsold;**
**You say we are worth it, we know best in our hearts.**
This is a microcosm of the work of FMCG salespeople nationwide. Writing this, suddenly my mind flashed with lightning, thinking of our thousands upon thousands of FMCG salespeople who are exhausted and weary from battling in the market. Scenes of life appear before my eyes: "Iron shoes worn through, the road still long; materials and gifts carried on shoulders. Summer sun beside, winter snow leaves two tracks. Wind and rain don't stop the busy day; longing and pain hidden in heart; hard to earn money all year, wife angry and friends cold! In the market, endure customer anger; the company pushes for sales!" These words make my nose tingle. Is this our FMCG salespeople? Who knows the hardships and mixed feelings? I really want to shout: Why are we always the ones hurt!
Working in FMCG sales has many ups and downs, but for life, for dreams, and for company development, these salespeople have been striving to overcome difficulties and expand markets. Their families and children have also paid a lot. Salute to their families!
Perhaps someone will ask: Since FMCG sales is so bitter, tiring, and annoying, why do I still choose to do it?
Sales is a skill; doing sales is for life and dreams. Compared to other industries, FMCG sales is easier to enter, finding a job is relatively easy, and if performance is good, it's easier to make money. Additionally, FMCG sales is the profession that best trains and enhances one's abilities; the proportion of salespeople who succeed in entrepreneurship is much higher than in other professions. Mr. Li Ka-shing once said that sales is both physical and mental labor; to become a master, you also need psychological activity. Because sales is about a feeling, an accumulation, a manifestation of comprehensive quality, and a release of personal charm. At the same time, it is the accumulation of knowledge, experience, time, and connections. Today's salespeople may be the future business elites.
Social competition is the competition of warfare and marketing. In peacetime, developing the economy, enterprises can lack R&D, can lack production, but absolutely cannot lack sales. Life is everywhere marketing, society is everywhere sales. Sales is beautiful; it is the theme of many people's lives and the sword of the strong. It's just that in different periods, the 'product' you sell is different. More often, we sell a concept or a way of thinking. If one day you can overlook the mountains, fearless; if one day you can speak eloquently and freely, I believe you are already among the best.
Finally, borrowing a humorous couplet from a netizen, I salute all comrades fighting on the front lines of market development and sales!
**Upper line:**
**One salesperson, two lips, three irregular meals, only for orders in all seasons, striving until five organs are damaged, six spirits unsettled, still rising at seven, leaving at eight, not returning by nine at night, extremely hard!**
**Lower line:**
**Ten years in sales, traveled all over nine provinces, eight-sided cleverness, busy until seven orifices smoke, getting six roots impure, five bodies uneasy, still rushing around in all directions, sleepless at three, only for two copper coins, striving all life!**
**Horizontal scroll: Continue to strive hard**
—Dedicated to every sales partner with dreams who doesn't rely on family, only on themselves, having only a background of shadow, not privilege!
-END-
