I have been operating at various digital services, but every company was the first contact.The sales person wanted to realize the part that would take first contact with the product.He tried a variety of sales sticks from Springboard participation, and after two or three pivots, he finally got on the launch.
In the inquiry form, the lead time from the prospective customer to return the answer is longer.Quicker can quickly connect the prospective customer and the sales person, and you can be backed by the time when the engagement does not decrease.(Mr. Watanabe)
