AGO MARKETING Launches an Innovative Consulting Service

AGO MARKETING Co., Ltd., headquartered in Nishishinjuku, Tokyo, under the leadership of Jun Agou, has officially launched its unique management improvement consulting service that fuses generative AI with art. This innovative initiative employs a distinct "Art & Science" methodology aimed at simultaneously enhancing revenue and reducing costs for businesses. The company envisions a sustainable regional revitalization by engaging the power of AI and art to bring gratitude to local communities.

Background of the Business

In the current VUCA era, organizations face increasingly complicated management challenges that traditional consulting cannot adequately address. Small and medium-sized manufacturing firms in rural areas are particularly facing the critical need to improve sales while also cutting costs. While the rapid advancement of generative AI technology presents substantial opportunities for operational efficiency, many companies struggle to find effective ways to leverage it.

Thus, AGO MARKETING aims to respond to these market needs through its innovative consulting services built around the "Art & Science" concept, which integrates creativity (Art) with logic and automation (Science).

Unique Approach: The "Art & Science" Framework

Art Department: Revenue Enhancement Strategies through Creativity

Utilizing marketing strategies, design thinking, and art-based thinking, AGO MARKETING seeks to uncover latent market needs that conventional data and logic may overlook. Through workshops leveraging multifaceted contemporary art interpretation techniques, the company fosters the development of original ideas that competitors may not conceive, thereby facilitating disruptive innovation.

Key services provided include:
1. Problem-solving proposals using design thinking and generative AI.
2. Strategy implementation via the Choice Cascade Model.
3. Art-thinking workshops aimed at creating new business ventures.
4. Comprehensive sales strategy support from AI strategic advisors.

Science Department: Operational Efficiency via Generative AI

Employing the latest generative AI technology and data science methodologies, AGO MARKETING aims to automate traditionally labor-intensive processes. The following five specialized AI solutions can achieve up to a 98% increase in efficiency:
1. AI for standardizing sales expertise: Systematizes insights from top salespeople, reducing training time for newcomers and eliminating individual reliance.
2. Automated labor management dashboard AI: Automatically aggregates labor hours per project and suggests optimal personnel allocation.
3. Work bottleneck analysis AI: Utilizes video and image recognition for manufacturing process analysis, enhancing productivity.
4. FAIX: An automated system that fully digitizes the estimation process from fax reception to invoice preparation, minimizing transcription errors.
5. AI consulting for organizational DX promotion: Builds and cultivates DX promotion teams to establish sustainable transformation frameworks.

Achievements and Impact

Despite being a newly established firm, AGO MARKETING has already garnered significant achievements across various industries. Here are some notable cases:


Particularly, the achievements within local government organizations have attracted attention as successful cases for generative AI utilization in public institutions, demonstrating the potential for DX advocacy in large organizations.

Future Outlook

With the official launch of this initiative, AGO MARKETING aims to accelerate the dissemination of its Art & Science approach among regional enterprises nationwide. Focus will be on bolstering support for generative AI implementation primarily within small and medium-sized manufacturing firms, contributing to revitalizing Japan's local economies. Additionally, successful cases in local governments will be leveraged to expand into other governmental entities, striving to create model cases for DX promotion in public institutions.
