Transforming Operations: Business Reform Seminar
On March 4, 2026, UPWARD Co., Ltd. will host a complimentary seminar titled
"Business Reform Starting with Customer and Sales Management" in Bangkok, aimed at Japanese business leaders and managers in Thailand. This event, co-hosted with TerraSky (Thailand) Co., Ltd. and Thai CC Innovation Co., Ltd., is designed to address the common challenges faced by local Japanese companies regarding productivity and customer relationship management.
Background of the Seminar
The importance of digital transformation (DX) is widely acknowledged among Japanese companies in Thailand. However, many face challenges like discrepancies between operational processes and the systems implemented, leading to mere increases in data entry workloads without significant productivity gains. If sales activities remain unclear and rely heavily on individual employees, the introduction of sophisticated IT tools will often result only in duplicated efforts rather than enhancing overall productivity.
Under Thailand's unique blend of smartphone-centric operations and chronic traffic congestion, businesses need to go beyond simple tool implementation. What is required instead is a
comprehensive redesign of the sales process. This seminar seeks to address these gaps by leveraging insights from industry experts.
Partnership and Collaborative Efforts
The partnership between UPWARD, Thai CC Innovation, and TerraSky (Thailand) focuses on fundamentally transforming the government and business operations through effective consulting practices. Representatives from these organizations will share case studies, providing insights into successfully optimizing business processes and utilizing DX tools and artificial intelligence (AI) to maximize sales results.
Key Issues and Solutions
The seminar will delve into why sales reforms often stall. Participants will receive a detailed roadmap to transform into a winning sales organization within the local context. Common challenges addressed will include:
- - Organizational and Strategic Issues:
- Sales activities not being documented as organizational knowledge but are kept within individual personnel using chat tools.
- Aiming to eliminate potential sales losses from missed visits or delayed follow-ups.
- - IT and Tool Challenges:
- Overlapping data entry workloads due to scattered scheduling and reporting tools.
- Achieving a streamlined approach compatible with mobile technology prevalent in Thailand.
- Desire to analyze and monitor external sales activities and visit statuses.
- Drive towards automated reporting tasks and data governance using the latest AI tools.
