Why Do Great Factories Struggle with Sales?
No Time for Sales
We're busy on the factory floor. Even with specialized capabilities, we don't have the time or resources to actively pursue new clients. We wish someone could clearly understand our strengths and communicate them effectively to the right partners.

Auto-Generate Personalized Emails
The AI analyzes the prospect's equipment and your strengths to draft the perfect outreach message in seconds. Send compelling pitches directly from your phone, saving hours of manual work.
Don't Know How to Find Clients
"I thought creating a website would attract customers… but we're not receiving any inquiries." We know waiting isn't a strategy. But without a clear way to reach new business partners, it's difficult to find consistent opportunities.
A Promotional Page That Works for You 24/7
Create a professional company profile even without technical expertise. Your page continuously showcases your strengths and connects you with potential customers.
Show, Don't Just Tell: Video Portfolios
Text and photos can't fully capture your technical skills or factory atmosphere. Easily upload videos right from your smartphone to create an engaging promotional page instantly, at a fraction of the cost of a traditional website.
Automated Inbound Leads via Internet
Stop chasing leads. MILLY automatically matches you with potential clients actively searching for your technology. Our SEO-optimized pages ensure you capture traffic directly from search engines, expanding your reach effortlessly.
Hard to Find the Right Partner
"Waiting for inquiries isn't enough — but I don't know where to start." I want to proactively connect with new business partners. I want to narrow down my search using specific criteria — but I don't know how to find the right match efficiently.
AI-Optimized Search to Instantly Find Your Ideal Match
Search beyond basic filters like location and industry. Use manufacturing-specific criteria to quickly identify the most suitable partners.
Zero-Effort Partner Recommendations
Our proprietary algorithm automatically highlights companies actively looking for your specific capabilities. Take the guesswork out of prospecting and start building proactive connections instantly.
Pinpoint Niche Partners in Seconds
Filter by specialized manufacturing criteria like "5-axis machining" or "Inconel" alongside location and industry. Find the exact partner that meets 100% of your specific needs instantly, saving you countless hours.
A Network That Isn't Being Used
"We've built relationships over the years — but we're not making use of them." We have spreadsheets filled with contacts from exhibitions and years of business interactions. But without a clear system or trigger, we rarely reconnect. Valuable relationships remain untouched.
Turn Customer Data into a Strategic Asset
Digitize neglected business cards instantly with zero manual entry. Transform every past connection into a searchable, shared corporate asset right from your phone.
Snap to Digitize Instantly
Just take a photo of business cards collected at exhibitions or past meetings. The AI automatically extracts and inputs the data, eliminating manual entry and letting you build your contact list in seconds.
Turn Memory into Shared Knowledge
Save crucial details like "They excel in 5-axis machining" as internal notes. Easily search your entire network by keyword, preventing knowledge silos and enabling smooth, scalable follow-ups.
We want to work with overseas companies — but language is a barrier.
We're interested in global business opportunities, but smooth communication feels challenging. Sharing drawings, discussing specifications, and negotiating across languages can be overwhelming. We don't know where to begin.

Testimonials
Tsuchida Seisakusho Co., Ltd.
President TsuchidaEven though we had no idea how to do sales, simply sending messages led to orders for 7 parts from a sheet metal manufacturer
- Why MILLY?
- To be honest, I had never once done sales outreach on my own. I wanted to expand our customer base, but daily machining work took up all my time, and more than anything, I simply didn't know how to go about sales.
I signed up because I thought that with MILLY, even someone with no sales know-how like me could get started easily. That was exactly what I was hoping for. - Actually using MILLY
- All I did was look for companies through a conversation with AI Joe.
AI Joe even writes the sales messages tailored to each recipient and sends them, so I never had to agonize over what to write. For someone who had never done sales, that was what made it possible to start.
That is how we connected with a sheet metal company. Once we were connected, we could communicate directly through MILLY's chat, and we exchanged drawings within MILLY as well. For detailed discussions about additional machining, we simply talked on the phone while looking at the drawings. We are an analog company, but we had no trouble at all.
We submitted a quote, received the order, and finished delivery about three months after connecting. Seven parts in total, mostly in lots of 100.
Since our work is cutting from solid steel, we had hardly ever heard directly from sheet metal companies before. Even within manufacturing, the machines and the way of thinking are different, so there is normally no point of contact. Simply being able to work with an industry we had never done business with was a big plus for our company. - Future expectations
- Above all, I hope companies from many more fields will join. If cutting, sheet metal, resin, plating, and even electronics all come in, I think it will get much more lively.
Even if it doesn't lead to work, I believe there is value in simply getting to know people from other industries.

Clever Sangyo Co., Ltd.
President TatsumiOne reply to a single bulletin board post led from prototypes to a production order
- Why MILLY?
- When President Kitamura was visiting companies in Higashiosaka one by one, he stopped by our office and introduced MILLY to us.
Relying on our existing customers alone would only mean gradual decline, so we registered hoping to open up new sales channels. - Actually using MILLY
- When someone posts on the bulletin board looking for a machining partner, the companies that look like a match get a notification. When I saw one particular job, I thought, this is definitely for us.
What I sent back was little more than a link — here is our website. Even that was enough for the other company's president to contact me right away. We made 5 or 10 prototype pieces for them to check, and then received an order for about 50. There was hardly any drawn-out back and forth.
I think what closed the deal is being able to communicate directly and immediately. Having presidents this close to each other is tremendously valuable. - Future expectations
- From now on, I plan to post on the bulletin board myself.
Having used it, I realized that the more you put yourself out there, the more chances you get to meet people. If more companies post like that, MILLY will become even more active.

Kanesugi Co., Ltd.
Executive Director SugimotoThe message was so well written that I never would have guessed an AI wrote it. It led to real business between us
- Why MILLY?
- Above all, finding partner factories.
Until now it was either hearing through an acquaintance that "there is a factory like this," or getting an introduction from a customer. Those were the only two options.
We look for partners when we have more work than we can handle in house, and when we receive a request for machining we can't do ourselves. That is when we start looking for someone who can take it on. - Actually using MILLY
- Tsuchida Seisakusho contacted us through MILLY's chat.
The message said, in effect, "this is what your company does, and here is where we can help," and nothing about it felt off. I was actually surprised when I later heard it had been written by an AI. When I read it, my impression was simply that it was a very polite, well-written message.
We happened to have a job we could ask them about, and they were close by, so we set up a meeting. Meeting them in person convinced me we could work with them with confidence, and business started from there.
We are a sheet metal shop, so even within manufacturing we have little contact with cutting and machining companies. Sheet metal shops stick with sheet metal shops, and normally there is no point of contact.
But when we can take on machined parts as a set with the sheet metal work we produce, the customer only has to place an order with one company, which makes it easier for them, and it widens the range of work we can accept. Almost all of our jobs are that kind of set, so being able to connect with companies that handle the processes we can't do ourselves is a great help.
Honestly, there are periods when we are so full of work that new sales activity is difficult. Even so, a message saying "here is what we can do" is never unwelcome, because we can judge right away whether it is something we can use. - Future expectations
- I hope many more companies in the Kanto area will join.
Distance is fine as long as quality is not an issue, but whether we can get there if something goes wrong matters a lot, so we look nearby first. On MILLY, we go through the companies in Kanagawa and reach out to any that look promising.
Beyond that, plating and painting shops. Plating companies in particular are decreasing, and since the one shop near us closed, we have been struggling.
Rather than connecting sheet metal shop to sheet metal shop, we are looking for companies that can do the work we can't, so I hope more companies from other fields will join.

Daishin Daice Kogyo Co.
President KawashimaIt's fascinating to be able to find information on processing companies that are not on their websites.
- Why MILLY?
- In a word, the enthusiasm of the president.
Also, it was fascinating to be able to search for information on processing companies that are not on their websites.
There are many manufacturing companies that don't have websites....
Also, the chat communication is easy to get to know, and I can see the response.
The fact that the president is making a steady effort to cultivate these companies is really what got me into it. - Expectations for MILLY in the future
- We are also looking to expand our business overseas.
Now we're hoping they'll develop the processing range and search items and information that we still lack!

MIRAITECH Corporation
President MurakamiRecommended even for those who are not good at digital!
- Why MILLY?
- I joined because I thought that Mr. Kitamura's enthusiasm and personality would surely help us grow our business.
We joined the company partly because we wanted to participate and promote our company among the many small and medium-sized companies, but most of all, we joined the company to support Mr. Kitamura. - Actually using MILLY
- When I received the PR, I thought, That's pretty easy!
It's reasonable, and I can take pictures on the spot with my cell phone.
I can use it like LINE, and view it even when I'm out, so I thought it would be very mobile.
I recommend it even if you are not good with digital technology!
In fact, we received a request for a quote right out of the blue, and after we responded, we received the order immediately.
We are very happy with the results.

Aluminum Factory
Executive Director TanamotoYou can find processing capabilities that your own facility cannot handle
- Why MILLY?
- In the manufacturing industry, I thought it was great to be able to search for processing capabilities that your own facility cannot handle.
I felt that using this, we could send and receive processing projects and build a solid network.
Since our company specializes in aluminum, we're hoping more and more companies that handle not just steel and stainless but also aluminum and round parts will join.

MR Giken Co., Ltd.
President MizuguchiBusiness opportunities emerged within three months of implementation. Through effective use of the bulletin board, we quickly found partner factories that now provide “monthly repeat business.”
- Why MILLY?
- The gap between manufacturing sites, especially companies like ours that produce goods, and the IT world is far greater than one might imagine. The reality is that many workers on the shop floor are unfamiliar with PC operations, and numerous companies possess high technical capabilities yet lack even a properly maintained website. Amidst this situation, the fact that Milly's representative actually visited our site, carefully listened to our concerns, and demonstrated a strong desire to bridge this gap was a major factor in our decision to proceed with implementation.
- Actually using MILLY
- Many craftsmen take great pride in their technology, but tend to be "passive" when it comes to sales. Rather than "selling themselves," being "found by those who need their skills" is a much greater encouragement for craftsmen.
MILLY naturally fosters the awareness of "being seen" and enhances our ability to communicate. Within just 3 months of registration, we received 2 inquiries that developed into concrete business discussions. Furthermore, when we posted a call for partner factories on the bulletin board, we received 3 inquiries, and we've already done about 4 transactions with one of them. - Future expectations
- We hope it will grow beyond being just a listing site into a platform that aligns with the unique business practices of the manufacturing industry. We are confident that through MILLY, small factories with core technologies can connect with each other, creating a cycle where new work is generated.
