Introduction
In a move to broaden the scope of service offerings for OA (Office Automation) equipment sales companies, Lumission Co., Ltd., headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has announced the launch of a new feature called the "Customer Deepening and Management Problem-Solving Package" within its management support service, "The President's Avatar," starting from August 20, 2026. This innovative package aims to expand the value provided by OA equipment sales companies beyond mere sales and maintenance to include comprehensive management support for their clients.
Background
OA equipment sales companies play a crucial role in establishing ongoing relationships with small to medium-sized enterprises through the sales of multifunctional printers, PCs, telecom devices, and security equipment. Despite having a consistent customer interface through regular maintenance, updates, and additional installations, these companies often face challenges such as price competition and dependence on equipment update cycles. In conversations with clients, various management issues emerge that are not directly related to the equipment, such as recruitment difficulties, profitability concerns, and operational efficiency woes. Without proper support systems in place, these discussions often end without resolution.
To address these gaps, Lumission has introduced a package that leverages the existing trust that OA equipment sales companies have with their clients, transforming discussions around IT equipment and office challenges into conversations about broader business management issues.
What is the "Customer Deepening and Management Problem-Solving Package"?
This package is designed to assist OA equipment sales companies in identifying and resolving management challenges faced by their existing corporate clients that cannot be addressed merely through updates or maintenance of equipment. For example, when a customer expresses a desire to improve operational efficiency, instead of just suggesting new IT devices, the sales company, in collaboration with "The President's Avatar," will analyze current workflows, define roles, and identify areas of task dependency to propose effective improvement strategies. Similarly, if a client mentions staffing shortages, the package prompts a holistic evaluation that includes recruitment design, training, assessment, and employee retention.
Core Support Features
The primary support provided includes:
1.
Identification of Management Issues: Utilizing regular customer interactions to uncover latent management challenges related to sales, profitability, personnel, and operational efficiency.
2.
Improvement of Sales and Profits: Assessing product design, pricing, customer value, and sales strategies to foster a sustainable and profitable business structure.
3.
Talent Acquisition and Retention: Examining recruiting practices, training programs, and management structures to promote effective human resource practices.
4.
Collaboration for Operational Improvements: Streamlining business processes and clarifying task ownership to connect IT solutions provided by OA equipment sales companies to client needs.
5.
Creation of New Business Opportunities: Using management challenges as a starting point to identify product needs related to PCs, multifunctional devices, networks, and security.
6.
Continuous Management Support: "The President's Avatar" offers ongoing support for a wider range of management challenges, working in tandem with OA equipment sales companies to fuel client growth.
New Value Proposition for OA Equipment Sales Companies
Through the implementation of this package, OA equipment sales companies can evolve from mere product sellers to genuine partners in managing client enterprises. For instance:
- - For companies grappling with operational efficiency, support includes process restructuring alongside IT improvements.
- - Sales-focused entities gain assistance in not just revenue generation, but also in refining customer acquisition and retention strategies.

Partner Program
In tandem with the package rollout, Lumission is introducing a partner program tailored for OA equipment and office equipment sales companies. Participating partners can refer companies facing management challenges to Lumission. If the referred companies meet specified criteria, partners earn referral rewards that can reach up to 750,000 yen, without the need to establish their consulting departments.
