Coconala Assist Achieves 500 Transactions in Just Over a Year

Coconala, Inc. proudly announces that its assistant matching service, Coconala Assist, has surpassed a remarkable milestone of 500 transactions within just a year and a half of launching. This accomplishment stems from the rising demand for business outsourcing services, including sales and recruitment, amidst ongoing labor shortages in various industries.

The Coconala Assist program provides businesses with talented assistants who possess a diverse range of skills, starting at only 80,000 yen per month for 40 hours of service. This service primarily caters to corporate clients, with Coconala managing the contracts, ensuring consistent follow-up and support from matching to interviews and final agreements. This structured approach allows companies looking to implement outsourced roles for the first time to engage comfortably and confidently.

Among its offerings, Coconala Assist is tailored to meet needs across various sectors, such as HR, accounting, administration, and customer support, along with specialized fields like design and marketing. The one-on-one contract structure promotes deeper engagement in projects, ensuring flexibility, efficient execution, and a strong trust rapport between the assistant and the business.

Moreover, with a database surpassing one million registered skilled individuals, Coconala Assist ensures high-accuracy matching. The service considers not only specialized skills but also interests in specific areas, industry knowledge, and backgrounds beyond the typical work history, allowing businesses to connect with the most fitting talent.

Feedback from Business Leaders

According to Toshi Kondo, the Head of Coconala Assist, the service directly addresses specific business challenges through an innovative matching process, identifying the “100-point talent” that perfectly fits company needs.

“We ask clients, ‘What does your ideal 100-point employee look like?’,” Kondo explains. “We focus on thorough discussions instead of offering vague suggestions, ensuring that we pinpoint the right individual to solve unique company challenges, including the statement, ‘We cannot find someone with those skills.’”

The service has expanded significantly over the past eighteen months, now offering access to assistants for roles extending from general administrative duties to video creators and social media marketers, reflecting a wider skill set available to clients. Kondo emphasizes their aim to refine matching accuracy and speed, striving to enhance customer satisfaction continuously.

Success Stories with Coconala Assist

Case Study 1: Sato Special Oil Co., Ltd.

Due to business growth, Sato Special Oil Co., Ltd. needed to conduct new graduate hiring work for the first time in five years—a task complicated by a lack of in-house experience. They desired to engage a human resources professional for a short-term, outsourced role rather than hiring full-time due to a lack of ongoing recruitment plans.

They opted for Coconala Assist because of its flexible short-term contracts and the ability for customized adjustments in roles and agreements. Sato Special Oil expressed satisfaction with the service, stating that physical distance was minimized through remote work, enabling smooth collaboration while meeting their specific hiring needs.

Case Study 2: Fuji Kousan Co., Ltd.

Fuji Kousan, facing challenges in data management due to varying formats of inquiries from real estate businesses, experienced increased overtime for their employees who were responsible for data entry.

The ability to work closely with one assistant appealed to them, especially after finding a candidate who had both an interest in property information and knowledge of related terminology, ensuring a smooth workflow. They noted that Coconala Assist provided a solution that exceeded their expectations, and they appreciated the positive experience of using outsourced manpower for the first time.
