■ Background of Service Provision: The 'Pain of the Sales Floor' We Witnessed. In the world of sales, a 'grit-based' mentality, such as '100 cold calls a day' and 'the real battle begins after being rejected,' is still considered a virtue. However, behind the scenes, we have seen many young employees lose confidence, questioning if they are truly helping anyone, and female employees hitting a wall of inefficiency while trying to balance work and life. The 'spray and pray' approach is not a happy one, neither for the companies being approached nor for the sales representatives executing it. We identified this 'mental burnout in sales' as a social issue to be solved and developed this service, growing into one of Japan's largest professional organizations.
■ Three Paradigm Shifts to Achieve 'Intentional' Sales
1. From Grit to 'Convincing' Sales. Our proprietary AI analysis presents 'convincing grounds (insights)' on 'why we should propose to this company now.' We create an environment where young employees act with the intention 'I want to help this company,' rather than just 'executing a list.'
2. Changing the 'Quality of Time' and Expanding Career Possibilities. By reducing wasted research and fruitless approaches, more time can be spent on creative proposal preparation and deep dialogue with customers. This becomes a 'weapon for working long and authentically' for the dual-income generation who want to achieve results in limited time, and for the younger generation aiming for efficient skill development.
3. Transforming Sales from a 'Scramble' to a 'Gift'. What Sales Intelligence achieves is delivering the right solution at the right time. It's not a forceful sales pitch, but a 'gift' for the recipient. The tangible feeling that one's work is contributing to society supports the pride of all working people.
