Revolutionizing B2B Sales with 'Akamane Search'

Incubator Inc., a company based in Shibuya, Tokyo, is set to transform the landscape of B2B sales with its innovative AI sales support tool, 'Akamane Search.' This new service is poised to streamline the sales process by automating preparation for business negotiations, allowing sales teams to focus on critical interactions with potential customers. Starting July 1, 2025, 'Akamane Search' will be available through Sanshin Electric Co., also located in Tokyo.

The Current Sales Environment

In today’s fast-paced business world, sales organizations are inundated with information. In particular, the B2B sector faces the challenge of tailoring proposals to meet unique customer needs, which often leads to inefficiencies. Sales personnel find themselves bogged down by the sheer volume of information they must collect and analyze. This not only wastes precious time but can also negatively impact the quality of pitches and the rate of successful conversions.

Empowering Sales Teams

Incubator Inc. addresses these issues with 'Akamane Search,' an AI-powered tool designed to enhance the efficiency of sales preparation. The tool automates critical tasks and allows sales representatives to concentrate on meaningful customer engagement. With a focus on reducing preparation time, 'Akamane Search' enables sales teams to improve the quality of their proposals, thereby boosting overall conversion rates.

In a significant step forward, Sanshin Electric has decided to adopt 'Akamane Search' internally while distributing it to their clients. This collaboration indicates a shared belief in the potential of AI-driven solutions to optimize sales processes and enhance productivity.

The Impact on Sanshin Electric

Sanshin Electric’s Solution Sales Headquarters aims to provide optimal solutions to meet customer challenges, but managing extensive information has historically posed a barrier. By integrating 'Akamane Search,' Sanshin Electric expects to streamline its sales operations significantly. Early implementation has already demonstrated notable effects in enhancing sales workflows through efficient data analysis and preparation.

This partnership with Sanshin Electric is viewed as a monumental step towards 'co-creating the future of sales through AI,' shedding light on the evolution of sales strategies in Japan. Insights garnered from this collaboration will foster further advancements of 'Akamane Search' and its applicability across various industries.
