BellFace Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Kazuaki Nakajima), which develops and sells the Salesforce input agent "bellSalesAI," has released a case study article on the utilization of bellSalesAI by Net Protections Co., Ltd. (hereinafter, Net Protections).

Net Protections, while focusing on enterprise sales, faced the challenge of a workload burden where creating meeting minutes took approximately 30 minutes per case, and important sales negotiations often lacked records in Salesforce. By introducing bellSalesAI, the time required for minute creation was significantly reduced from 30 minutes to a few seconds. This resulted in a monthly reduction of 200-400 hours of work.

Furthermore, with a system in place to reliably accumulate sales logs in Salesforce, real-time sharing of sales negotiations through integration with Slack and cross-organizational utilization of sales data became possible, accelerating the evolution into a "data-driven sales organization" beyond mere efficiency.

About the Case Study Article This case study article provides a detailed introduction to the background and decisive factors for Net Protections' introduction of bellSalesAI, specific utilization methods, raw voices from the field, and future prospects.

Background of Introduction Net Protections was accelerating its enterprise sales efforts with the aim of acquiring large corporate clients. In "line sales," where negotiations can last from three months to over a year, the value of sales logs is extremely important. However, in reality, due to many face-to-face negotiations and an environment where it was difficult to take records during negotiations, Salesforce often only contained "conclusions" or no notes at all.

When personnel changed, the context of negotiations was lost, leading to information discontinuity. Additionally, because creating meeting minutes took approximately 30 minutes per case, sales representatives were tied up with recording tasks even after negotiations, reducing the time they could spend on considering next actions and customer support.

Against this backdrop, multiple tools were compared and reviewed for about a year. They decided to introduce bellSalesAI, evaluating its design for "accumulating and utilizing sales logs as assets in Salesforce" rather than just a minute-taking tool, and its "proposal capability for improving the reproducibility of enterprise sales."

Effects of Introduction Net Protections has seen the following effects from the introduction of bellSalesAI: - Meeting minute creation time: Reduced from approximately 30 minutes to a few seconds per case - Achieved a monthly reduction of 200-400 hours of work - Next actions can be considered immediately after negotiations - Enabled logging of face-to-face negotiations, creating an environment where important negotiations are recorded - Accumulation of the overall picture of negotiations (background, context, decision-making process) in Salesforce - Real-time sharing of negotiations through Slack integration has begun, allowing for situation awareness without waiting for meetings or 1-on-1s - Time saved is allocated to "activities that improve sales quality" such as negotiation preparation, internal discussions, and strategic planning.

Reasons for Achieving Results Net Protections achieved high results due to the following three factors:

1. Introduction design aimed at "utilization" rather than "recording" Introduced not merely as a minute-taking tool, but as a platform for accumulating and utilizing sales logs as assets in Salesforce. The "Sales Summary" function created an environment where information including background, context, and decision-making processes can be grasped at a glance on Salesforce.

2. Systematization of real-time cross-organizational sharing via Slack integration Slack notifications are implemented in two patterns: "Action" triggers (daily progress management) and "Negotiation" triggers (phase change management). This establishes a system for real-time awareness of negotiation status without waiting for meetings or 1-on-1s, fostering a culture of utilizing negotiation data across the organization.

3. Utilization concept envisioning reproducibility and systematization of enterprise sales Sales logs have been transformed from something dependent on the "sales representative's intuition" to "data assets that can be learned and utilized by the organization." In the future, they envision more advanced utilization, such as daily summaries and to-do generation by Slack AI, and extraction of proposal opportunities from sales data.
