Kairos Marketing at the SFA Adoption Summit 2026
Kairos Marketing Co., Ltd., based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has announced its participation in the online conference "SFA Adoption Summit 2026: How to Create Systems that Drive Action by Industry." This event, hosted by Openpage, promises to shed light on effective strategies for integrating Sales Force Automation (SFA) within various industries. COO Noriaki Shirai will represent the company and share insights on the crucial theme of collaboration between sales and marketing departments.
The summit aims to address a growing concern among businesses: despite the increasing adoption of sales support systems, many organizations face challenges such as low user engagement and inadequate returns on investment. As SFA tools become more prevalent, understanding how to implement them effectively on the ground level is essential.
During the summit, discussions will be held in a dialogue format, focusing on common sales processes across the IT and SaaS sectors. Participants will gain valuable insights into practical methods for making SFA tools a regular part of daily operations.
Kairos Marketing recognizes the importance of seamless information flow between marketing and sales teams. Shirai will emphasize strategies for preventing information silos and effectively leveraging customer data to enhance business outcomes.
