Explanation
According to order '3' and '4' in table orders, it is easy to tell only salesperson 'John' and 'Pam' have sales to company 'RED',
so we need to output all the other names in the table salesperson.
# Write your MySQL query statement below
SELECT name
FROM salesperson
WHERE sales_id
NOT IN (
SELECT s.sales_id FROM orders o
INNER JOIN salesperson s ON o.sales_id = s.sales_id
INNER JOIN company c ON o.com_id = c.com_id
WHERE c.name = 'RED'
);
