Explanation: 
According to orders 3 and 4 in the Orders table, it is easy to tell that only salesperson John and Pam have sales to company RED, so we report all the other names in the table salesperson.

Solutions

Solution 1: LEFT JOIN + GROUP BY

We can use a left join to join the SalesPerson table with the Orders table on the condition of sales id, and then join the result with the Company table on the condition of company id. After that, we can group by sales_id and count the number of orders with the company name RED. Finally, we can filter out the salespersons who do not have any orders with the company name RED.

MySQL

# Write your MySQL query statement below
SELECT s.name
FROM
    SalesPerson AS s
    LEFT JOIN Orders USING (sales_id)
    LEFT JOIN Company AS c USING (com_id)
GROUP BY sales_id
HAVING IFNULL(SUM(c.name = 'RED'), 0) = 0;
