1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,480
Hi, everyone! I'm Gustavo Fechus. Today,

2
00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:04,759
we are launching the version of

3
00:00:04,759 --> 00:00:08,559
the XMACNA Podcast videocast. Today, we

4
00:00:08,559 --> 00:00:10,160
have here the opportunity to

5
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,840
talk with Rodrigo Simões, Rômulo

6
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,119
Carneiro, and Lucca Carvalho. And we are the

7
00:00:16,119 --> 00:00:18,880
team leading this project at

8
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,640
XMACNA, an agency for digital employees.

9
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,880
Guys, here, in our

10
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,560
day-to-day, we have a strong perception

11
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,240
that the world is

12
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,320
changing in a significant way, right?

13
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,040
Obviously, we are dealing with the topic

14
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,280
of innovation, employment, the implementation of

15
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,879
artificial intelligence, and, anyway,

16
00:00:41,879 --> 00:00:44,160
morning to night, there's talk

17
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:47,039
we talk a lot about this,

18
00:00:47,039 --> 00:00:49,360
but I don't think there is here, let's say,

19
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,520
a perspective that's, let's say, really

20
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,840
unique; it's not just our opinion, you know?

21
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,840
Why? Because we are talking

22
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,840
right now at the end of 2024,

23
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,880
when the Nobel Prize was announced

24
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,119
recently, in the last few days. And chemistry and

25
00:01:08,119 --> 00:01:11,280
physics were the areas—just chemistry and

26
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,799
physics, chemistry and physics, nothing more than

27
00:01:13,799 --> 00:01:16,759
that. Supposedly, the 'hard' sciences, right?

28
00:01:16,759 --> 00:01:19,920
And so on. These areas were, um,

29
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,360
awarded to personalities who today

30
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,920
are promoting, creating, and driving

31
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,960
This topic of Artificial Intelligence is

32
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:32,159
AD society inside, right? Evidently, we

33
00:01:32,159 --> 00:01:33,640
are also participating in some way

34
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,520
in this construction process here in Brazil’s economy

35
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,640
Brazil. In this context where we have

36
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,200
very important transformations underway,

37
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,840
but first, Lucca, I’d like

38
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,960
to invite you to talk a bit about this

39
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:49,159
moment, because it doesn’t seem trivial to me

40
00:01:49,159 --> 00:01:52,040
the fact that some revolution is

41
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,680
underway now. Gustavo, thanks for the

42
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,840
invitation, thanks for being here, everyone.

43
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,399
It’s a pleasure, here for the first time in

44
00:01:58,399 --> 00:02:00,719
video, right? And...

45
00:02:00,719 --> 00:02:05,119
Not even the biggest fiction enthusiast for

46
00:02:05,119 --> 00:02:07,600
Artificial Intelligence… Well, I’m among

47
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,800
them, and I could say it’s Geoff

48
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,680
Hinton, from Physics, and Demis

49
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,040
Hassabis, from Chemistry, one after the

50
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,480
other, same year. And it’s the scientific

51
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,480
community, in fact, trying to put

52
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,000
emphasis on the significance of the moment we’re

53
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,440
living through, right? Trying to make it clear that

54
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,959
we’re at an inflection point. There’s a

55
00:02:30,959 --> 00:02:34,000
real watershed here, and

56
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,200
well, Computer Science is Physics.

57
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,720
Computer Science didn’t exist, there was no computer science

58
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,440
when the Nobel Prize was

59
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,280
created, right? So what’s

60
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,519
closest to it, no doubt, is the prize

61
00:02:49,519 --> 00:02:51,879
The Nobel Prize also has this goal of

62
00:02:51,879 --> 00:02:55,319
highlighting advances in science that truly

63
00:02:55,319 --> 00:02:57,640
are impacting people's lives.

64
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:00,239
So, ignoring artificial intelligence

65
00:03:00,239 --> 00:03:01,560
right now would also be a mistake.

66
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,159
After we look back at

67
00:03:03,159 --> 00:03:05,440
why they chose these two, right? Because

68
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,680
obviously they had to be chosen.

69
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,560
We are living through a revolution, and this

70
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,799
revolution is reaching us every day in our

71
00:03:10,799 --> 00:03:12,760
work, on our desks, our

72
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,360
phones, inside our homes, and the

73
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,760
scientific community had to

74
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,519
put their star there and

75
00:03:19,519 --> 00:03:21,000
say: we are noticing what

76
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,159
It's happening here mainly because of

77
00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:25,040
choices, right? If we think that

78
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,120
of the three

79
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,680
of the three godfathers of Artificial

80
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,040
Intelligence, Lecão, Joffrey Hinton, and

81
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:37,040
Osha Bendel. Joffrey Hinton

82
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,920
was the one who resigned from Google to

83
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,280
be able to speak freely about this

84
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,480
moment we're living in. So, it's

85
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,200
this was mentioned by the organization of

86
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,640
the Nobel, that his position, that he is

87
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,799
having, actually, how much he is

88
00:03:52,799 --> 00:03:54,439
being vocal about the issues that

89
00:03:54,439 --> 00:03:57,239
we are experiencing. This was

90
00:03:57,239 --> 00:03:58,640
fundamental for him to be awarded.

91
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,480
Yeah, and Daves, right, who is one of the founders

92
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,319
of Deep Minds, from the lab at

93
00:04:04,319 --> 00:04:07,200
Google Artificial Intelligence, comes

94
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,560
from a brilliant career. Well, anyone

95
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,400
who wants to know more about him and

96
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,560
also about Joff Hinton, take a look

97
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,479
at the XMACNA website, we have

98
00:04:16,479 --> 00:04:18,519
biographies about these great

99
00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:21,120
figures there. And Demis Hassabis is in

100
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,800
charge of AlphaFold, which is that

101
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,000
Artificial Intelligence that can

102
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,120
predict how a protein folds

103
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,080
based on the amino acid sequence

104
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,919
there, that is, it reads the DNA sequence and

105
00:04:35,919 --> 00:04:38,120
it knows what 3D shape

106
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,000
that protein will have. And before, and this

107
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,759
by the way, this is very important for

108
00:04:42,759 --> 00:04:47,320
developing drugs or

109
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,440
drugs, right? Sorry, that's it, drugs.

110
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:54,479
And also understanding diseases, right? And

111
00:04:54,479 --> 00:04:58,840
each one of these proteins

112
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:01,000
to study before AlphaFold

113
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,280
it took you an entire PhD, so 4, 5

114
00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:07,800
years, 6 years to be able to design

115
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,120
that protein. Today we do it

116
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,199
with a click and it's open source, it's in all

117
00:05:13,199 --> 00:05:15,520
the labs in the world. AlphaFold

118
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,120
has already been cited over 20,000 times in

119
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,120
papers since it was invented and is

120
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,319
revolutionizing how we create

121
00:05:23,319 --> 00:05:25,960
A vaccine, how we create it, is... is any

122
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,199
thing in medicine, and it's just the beginning, right? The

123
00:05:28,199 --> 00:05:30,319
we're just seeing the tip of the iceberg.

124
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:32,720
All of this is in the context that we

125
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,039
are involved in, right? In this context of really

126
00:05:35,039 --> 00:05:37,800
a revolution, it's fundamental in how

127
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,000
science is done and how this

128
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,080
impacts us here at the end, right? It's, it's

129
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,319
ChatGPT, it's, it's brilliant, but it's a digital salesperson.

130
00:05:46,319 --> 00:05:49,039
Right? It's a scheduling assistant in

131
00:05:49,039 --> 00:05:50,400
your company. That's what I wanted

132
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:51,960
to point out right now. Here's the thing:

133
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,840
It seems that when you start naming

134
00:05:53,840 --> 00:05:56,960
these evolutions, like, that PhDs, right,

135
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,639
spend four years studying with the

136
00:05:59,639 --> 00:06:00,960
executives, it gives the impression that we

137
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,360
are talking about something a bit

138
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,360
intangible, right, for our daily lives, but

139
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,039
if it's true that, like, at the highest

140
00:06:08,039 --> 00:06:12,240
level of science, of pharmacy,

141
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,840
of cutting-edge research, it's the

142
00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:18,639
artificial intelligence today is, it's

143
00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:20,800
collaborating and it's a core

144
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,479
element around which the fields

145
00:06:22,479 --> 00:06:24,400
develop. It's also true that in

146
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,759
our daily lives, as you said, in our pocket,

147
00:06:26,759 --> 00:06:29,680
on the phone, this is already present. So,

148
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,280
the world of education has changed or is

149
00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:35,000
changing. Science is changing.

150
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,319
It seems to me that the commercial area is too.

151
00:06:38,319 --> 00:06:41,919
Obviously, it's changing and you can already notice.

152
00:06:41,919 --> 00:06:43,720
Very important changes are happening right now.

153
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,479
We're no longer talking about something

154
00:06:45,479 --> 00:06:47,919
that might happen in the future, right? No.

155
00:06:47,919 --> 00:06:51,160
It's no longer just a possibility, on the contrary, it's a

156
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,000
reality that many companies already

157
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,400
notice in their operations. That's why,

158
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:57,800
Rodrigo, I'd like you to tell

159
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,759
us, please, a bit about the applications of

160
00:07:00,759 --> 00:07:03,120
artificial intelligence in your sector, in the

161
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,039
Redigir platform and about which

162
00:07:06,039 --> 00:07:08,000
I think you have a testimonial

163
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,120
that's important to share with us.

164
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,680
Cool, Gustavo. Actually, we, well,

165
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,000
XMACNA is derived from a

166
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,879
another company, from another project of ours that

167
00:07:16,879 --> 00:07:19,639
is Rede Gir, right? And I'm leading the

168
00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:21,840
commercial area in both companies.

169
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,280
Specifically in the case of Rede Gir, we

170
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,080
have a sales process that is

171
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,199
very complex. We work with

172
00:07:28,199 --> 00:07:30,800
a platform that deals with teaching and

173
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,000
text evaluation, and knowing all the

174
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,919
pedagogical jargon, understanding the pain of the

175
00:07:36,919 --> 00:07:38,639
client who is a teacher, the client

176
00:07:38,639 --> 00:07:40,720
who is a coordinator, the client who is a principal, and

177
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,960
understanding how the platform works is

178
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,240
very difficult. So, training, right?

179
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,800
I'd say that a first, right, a first

180
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,479
a first revolution that we

181
00:07:49,479 --> 00:07:52,199
managed to do inside Red Gir and that

182
00:07:52,199 --> 00:07:54,120
maybe is at the beginning of what

183
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,680
became the digital employee

184
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,599
the digital salesperson from XMACNA is

185
00:07:57,599 --> 00:07:59,599
exactly in the training area, right

186
00:07:59,599 --> 00:08:01,240
about the ability to provide a

187
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,360
copilot that does onboarding, right? So

188
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,319
when I get a new salesperson, how do I

189
00:08:05,319 --> 00:08:06,840
train them to

190
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,400
ensure that the service, both the

191
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,240
service in a meeting, right? In a

192
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,080
phone call, but also the service that

193
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,000
happens there in a... uh, uh

194
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,759
it's not just momentary there, right? That

195
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:19,120
service that happens on WhatsApp, that

196
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,879
keeps happening, my term for this

197
00:08:20,879 --> 00:08:23,080
escaped me now, when it's not, when it's

198
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:24,720
asynchronous, exactly, the service

199
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,879
asynchronous, right? It can be done, it

200
00:08:26,879 --> 00:08:28,599
can be improved because my, my

201
00:08:28,599 --> 00:08:30,960
salesperson has a copilot who knows

202
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,839
all the company's playbook, the way it has

203
00:08:33,839 --> 00:08:35,360
to serve, the way we want

204
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,800
to serve, right? I even say that

205
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,719
we created Jorge, who is our

206
00:08:38,719 --> 00:08:41,039
digital salesperson at Red Gir. He is the

207
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:43,159
mirror of my salesperson mindset, right?

208
00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:44,880
available to any of our

209
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,480
salespeople. Again, we're talking about

210
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,320
a company whose presentation is complex

211
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,240
True. Imagine if we're talking about

212
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,640
a business, right? And, anyway, whose interaction

213
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,800
is a bit more accessible and so on, we

214
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:58,880
are talking about a high

215
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,760
complexity, a long process

216
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,560
of sales that was greatly

217
00:09:02,560 --> 00:09:04,360
benefited by these implementations, right?

218
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:05,760
No doubt. No doubt. There's another

219
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,160
interesting dimension too, which is the

220
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,680
dimension of improvement

221
00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:11,920
in the quality of the first contact.

222
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,120
Because we managed to reduce, uh,

223
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,320
time, right? Now we can serve

224
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,959
anyone who comes to the Red website

225
00:09:17,959 --> 00:09:20,200
and clicks to talk to a salesperson, speaks

226
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,000
immediately with the salesperson. But it's not

227
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,399
with just any salesperson, it's with an exceptional

228
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:27,279
salesperson able to guide you, right? Able to

229
00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:29,959
qualify very well. So, we had

230
00:09:29,959 --> 00:09:31,440
this problem in the Gir network, which was the

231
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,440
qualification problem, which today, right, we

232
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,120
have been working a lot within XMACNA

233
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,040
in the franchise sector, right? And, uh, the

234
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,079
franchise sector also has this

235
00:09:40,079 --> 00:09:42,480
difficulty in lead qualification.

236
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,040
Because you need to understand, in a

237
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,399
franchise with a R$ 500,000 investment, if

238
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:48,720
that lead is really a lead who has

239
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,839
investment power for your business, right?

240
00:09:50,839 --> 00:09:52,839
Otherwise, it's better not to do it. In the case of a

241
00:09:52,839 --> 00:09:54,800
franchise expansion, for example

242
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,560
normally, franchise expansion

243
00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:58,200
when the lead actually talks to the

244
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,079
salesperson, that salesperson is someone who already

245
00:10:00,079 --> 00:10:02,320
is at a higher level within the

246
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,160
of that franchisor and, therefore, their time

247
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,920
is expensive, right? It's important to qualify

248
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,000
this person, this lead who comes in

249
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,079
interested in becoming a

250
00:10:11,079 --> 00:10:13,360
franchisee, right? Well, in Redigia's case, we

251
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,560
don't have that issue of dealing

252
00:10:15,560 --> 00:10:17,880
with franchisees and all, but we

253
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,399
naturally, like any company,

254
00:10:19,399 --> 00:10:21,120
have the need to qualify and

255
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,000
understand: look, this teacher, this

256
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,360
coordinator, are they within the group

257
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:26,839
of institutions that I am able to

258
00:10:26,839 --> 00:10:28,760
serve and, therefore, if I

259
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,279
make myself available to have a meeting with

260
00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:31,959
them, I won't waste their time

261
00:10:31,959 --> 00:10:33,440
or mine for nothing. We will actually

262
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:34,639
do a good job. So, the

263
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:37,720
qualification is also kind of a

264
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,639
revolution, right, that we managed to

265
00:10:39,639 --> 00:10:41,360
do. So, I would say that, the

266
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,760
matter of training and improving

267
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,399
the first contact, right? Making

268
00:10:46,399 --> 00:10:48,399
it so that we can even... I no longer

269
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:50,079
have any limits now to scale a

270
00:10:50,079 --> 00:10:51,920
sales team, right? I no longer have

271
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,800
Limit now, if I am going to work by

272
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,639
for example, linked to marketing, I don't

273
00:10:55,639 --> 00:10:57,839
have any more limits now for the capacity

274
00:10:57,839 --> 00:11:00,839
for example, of lead actions through the actions

275
00:11:00,839 --> 00:11:03,399
that I perform, because leads can come in

276
00:11:03,399 --> 00:11:05,360
I will be able to handle everyone and

277
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:06,680
receive a lot

278
00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:09,800
even at night, any time, you were

279
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,800
giving an example of a type of

280
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,480
business, right? A bit specific, but I

281
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,320
think that, on the other hand, any

282
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,560
other business that has profit, for example

283
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:22,000
in paid traffic work, right? Of

284
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,560
campaign boosting. Tell me, what

285
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:27,079
business doesn't benefit from a

286
00:11:27,079 --> 00:11:29,440
digital salesperson who qualifies the campaign lead

287
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,160
that you set up to run. I, I

288
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:35,240
days ago, I was in a meeting with a, a, uh

289
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,360
commercial manager of a franchisor and

290
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,240
he said to me, the phrase was more or

291
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,560
less like this: 'Look, I, as a manager'

292
00:11:42,560 --> 00:11:46,000
commercial, uh, working here, training

293
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,519
sales teams of the units

294
00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:49,839
franchisees, I only have one certainty:

295
00:11:49,839 --> 00:11:51,240
every day, when I finish my

296
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,839
workday, that the group I trained

297
00:11:53,839 --> 00:11:56,360
the next day won't do exactly

298
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,959
what I trained them for

299
00:11:59,959 --> 00:12:02,120
you know? And then he was saying this

300
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,639
to say: 'Look, I don't believe that I'

301
00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:05,360
I found you guys and that finally I'm going to

302
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,399
be able to, right? Solve this... No, this is

303
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:09,600
a deep pain, it's a common pain in the

304
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,279
sense that many companies suffer from

305
00:12:12,279 --> 00:12:14,000
this process, which is the following: your

306
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,800
employee at the front line is saying what they should

307
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,680
at the right time, in the right place, they have

308
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:19,240
availability to serve everyone

309
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,079
anyone

310
00:12:20,079 --> 00:12:22,160
regardless of the time, in a good

311
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,560
mood, saying what the person needs to hear

312
00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:27,600
right? Not making mistakes on things that are... Wow, the

313
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,199
difficulty of hiring, of

314
00:12:29,199 --> 00:12:30,720
training, is something that we

315
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,760
overcome in a way... It's almost like,

316
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,639
how did this not exist before, right?

317
00:12:35,639 --> 00:12:39,120
Especially because we have... Uh, uh, uh, uh,

318
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,519
very deep qualities and revolutions

319
00:12:42,519 --> 00:12:45,040
that have already proven themselves in businesses

320
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,120
traditional ones and that noticed changes

321
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,199
in a very short time, changes in

322
00:12:50,199 --> 00:12:51,680
revenue. We're not talking about

323
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:53,880
a change in a company's culture

324
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,839
like, something intangible. We, on the

325
00:12:55,839 --> 00:12:58,480
contrary, are saying that we

326
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,279
observe and track the qualification and the

327
00:13:01,279 --> 00:13:04,320
closing of many more sales, right? I think

328
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,920
that this dimension of replacing

329
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,880
human labor, which is always a

330
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,959
concern whenever any new technology

331
00:13:11,959 --> 00:13:14,040
it happens, it needs to be qualified in the

332
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,440
sense of understanding that many of these

333
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,440
technologies actually enhance the

334
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,720
work of the salesperson. Actually, we

335
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,920
were recently at a lecture

336
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,240
also, Rodrigo, with one of these

337
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,560
franchisors, and

338
00:13:29,560 --> 00:13:31,440
with a testimonial. There was that moment from

339
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:32,839
Lucca when people turned on their

340
00:13:32,839 --> 00:13:35,160
microphones to speak, you know, at the end of the

341
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,320
our presentation and testimonials that

342
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,399
added up to say the following: Now I

343
00:13:39,399 --> 00:13:40,920
have more time to work with

344
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,639
offline media, I mean, now I can

345
00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:46,240
work out in the field, now I can give more

346
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,639
attention to those who really need my

347
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:51,800
attention. Right? So these

348
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,880
improvements in the performance of each

349
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,320
stage of the funnel is something that we

350
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,440
see very clearly and

351
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,639
this dimension, Gustavo, is interesting

352
00:14:01,639 --> 00:14:03,199
to think about some

353
00:14:03,199 --> 00:14:05,320
perspectives, right? I think the

354
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,839
first one is this issue of improvement

355
00:14:07,839 --> 00:14:10,040
in revenue. I think we were

356
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,240
joking, right, about answering 24 hours a

357
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,079
day in a good mood, right? And there's a partner

358
00:14:15,079 --> 00:14:17,079
of ours who talked a lot about

359
00:14:17,079 --> 00:14:19,560
the number of employees with medical leave

360
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,399
right? Number of employees who

361
00:14:22,399 --> 00:14:25,320
He had to scale up in

362
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,120
terms of vacations, right? Which are rights

363
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,360
extremely important for employees.

364
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,560
Humans. And when we add a

365
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,920
digital employee, how does that

366
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,639
empowers that team, right? So, I think

367
00:14:37,639 --> 00:14:39,839
that this digital employee aspect

368
00:14:39,839 --> 00:14:42,120
is very important. There's also another

369
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:43,639
situation that also happened

370
00:14:43,639 --> 00:14:46,160
recently. And what you also

371
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,959
mentioned about the arrival of leads in

372
00:14:49,959 --> 00:14:52,959
terms of paid media, because of all

373
00:14:52,959 --> 00:14:55,440
this close work with marketing, right?

374
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,880
So, we have a partner here who

375
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,399
is seeing more and more leads coming to

376
00:15:01,399 --> 00:15:04,800
him, and these leads being converted into

377
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,600
appointments. And then the human saleswomen

378
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,399
are having an increasing

379
00:15:11,399 --> 00:15:15,000
ability to close the final client there

380
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,360
because they can work with this

381
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,759
qualified lead, as Rodrigo said.

382
00:15:19,759 --> 00:15:22,199
So, unlike what is

383
00:15:22,199 --> 00:15:24,079
imagined, that artificial intelligence

384
00:15:24,079 --> 00:15:26,360
replaces human work, on the

385
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,120
contrary, we are seeing here at

386
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:30,800
XMACNA a possibility of

387
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,160
coexistence that is becoming more and more

388
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,800
productive for the company, of course, but

389
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,519
also for the employees who

390
00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:39,360
are able to work in a more

391
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,199
Optimized, it has another dimension of

392
00:15:42,199 --> 00:15:45,639
the solution, right, of sales, which is you

393
00:15:45,639 --> 00:15:48,720
talked about the funnel, right, which is the work

394
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,279
of backoffice, because once we

395
00:15:51,279 --> 00:15:53,440
do the qualification of that more tedious part

396
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,959
for... yeah, that's the really complex part

397
00:15:56,959 --> 00:15:59,880
because you do all the hard work of

398
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:01,839
customer service and then you have to take

399
00:16:01,839 --> 00:16:04,319
that conversation and put it into a spreadsheet

400
00:16:04,319 --> 00:16:06,360
right, so when we think about

401
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,040
XMACNA's artificial intelligence

402
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,399
that works on these processes throughout

403
00:16:11,399 --> 00:16:15,000
the funnel stages. I qualified this

404
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,319
lead, I talked to them six

405
00:16:18,319 --> 00:16:21,120
interactions, seven interactions, I managed to

406
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,680
make a company presentation there and

407
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,600
now another Artificial Intelligence

408
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,319
it will read all this conversation, it will

409
00:16:30,319 --> 00:16:33,480
be able to structure this conversation into

410
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,600
data so that the salesperson at the end

411
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,920
will work not only with the data

412
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,040
qualified with objective metrics that

413
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,000
can be created from the conversation, we

414
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,880
can measure, right, what is the

415
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,480
level of interest of that client

416
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,120
in that particular solution. Ah, in my

417
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:53,800
company it would be interesting if I

418
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,680
could capture how many employees

419
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,079
that company has, so we

420
00:16:58,079 --> 00:17:01,000
can put it into a spreadsheet from this

421
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,519
The dialogue that exists between the salesperson

422
00:17:03,519 --> 00:17:07,000
digital and the intelligence of our dashboard

423
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,079
intelligent, right, from our back office there at

424
00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:11,319
from the smart dashboard we

425
00:17:11,319 --> 00:17:13,600
can deliver that later to the

426
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,240
salesperson to work with quality. So

427
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,959
I think this back office solution, right,

428
00:17:18,959 --> 00:17:22,400
together with the lead qualifier is

429
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,559
exactly what tends to boost the

430
00:17:25,559 --> 00:17:27,439
work of the human salesperson there, right, you

431
00:17:27,439 --> 00:17:29,600
basically leave the guy to just take a

432
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,559
penalty kick with no goalkeeper. Anyway, my

433
00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:35,280
soccer metaphors are like that

434
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,760
unbelievable. Well, what I wanted to say

435
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,440
Lucca, Rômulo has been sharing

436
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,480
with us is part of the solutions

437
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,039
developed by XMACNA regarding

438
00:17:45,039 --> 00:17:48,840
the digital employees currently in

439
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,840
operation. We have some of these

440
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,559
employees, some families of these

441
00:17:52,559 --> 00:17:55,400
digital employees that, like, have

442
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,720
Olympic names. In fact, we can

443
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,200
open a chapter on that later, but I wanted you to

444
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,720
tell us the following: we

445
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,720
are basically talking here about the

446
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,440
experience we already have in

447
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,080
a few hundred closed contracts

448
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,919
currently operating today, of the digital salesperson

449
00:18:11,919 --> 00:18:15,440
right, who does this process and who

450
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,960
seems to be so useful for different

451
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,280
moments and market segments like this

452
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,960
that will benefit from this kind of, uh

453
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,480
solution. People who have problems with

454
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,600
WhatsApp service, right? Basically, the

455
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,919
bottom line is this, Rodrigo: if

456
00:18:28,919 --> 00:18:30,559
your company has customer service issues

457
00:18:30,559 --> 00:18:33,120
with WhatsApp, right? Regardless of

458
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:35,440
its size, right? We have the

459
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,480
real possibilities to help you and

460
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,799
quickly. Now, there's also another

461
00:18:39,799 --> 00:18:41,600
dimension, which is the scheduling assistant

462
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,280
which is like a cousin to the digital salesperson

463
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,760
right? Compared to the solution that's

464
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,320
in place, but it applies to businesses

465
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,120
that are a bit more specific. Tell us a

466
00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:54,240
little about how we've already

467
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,000
seen such important results

468
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,960
in, uh, businesses that have used this

469
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,720
our digital employee today. Let's go.

470
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,880
Uh, once again, the impact of a

471
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,240
technology like this, which today is winning

472
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,640
a Nobel and, at the same time, is

473
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,640
in our home and could be in your

474
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:15,880
company, working.

475
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,240
Yeah, that's it. It's quite different, right? Because

476
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,320
before, I don't know, someone invented a plane and we

477
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:22,799
would see on the news that the

478
00:19:22,799 --> 00:19:24,640
plane was invented. And then, eventually,

479
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,360
maybe one day you would see a plane and

480
00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:29,360
then, maybe one day, if you were lucky, later

481
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:31,000
for a long time, you would get on a plane and

482
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,960
until your first experience with that

483
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,320
which was a great invention from some

484
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,679
time ago, and now this great

485
00:19:36,679 --> 00:19:39,240
invention is launched in Silicon

486
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,480
Valley and it's working in your

487
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,320
company the same day, and it's expensive, it's for

488
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,440
everyone. Oh no, but it's just for companies? No,

489
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,200
no, no, no, any professional

490
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:53,760
freelancer, any dentist, lawyer, uh, uh,

491
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,360
physiotherapist, any clinic, any

492
00:19:56,360 --> 00:19:59,760
professional, today it's natural, right, you have

493
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,600
to build relationships with

494
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,760
clients, have meetings and the

495
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,600
appointments, then actually do the

496
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,200
work, right? Because sometimes the meeting

497
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,600
isn't work. This person can be

498
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,120
greatly empowered by a digital seller,

499
00:20:12,120 --> 00:20:13,880
by a scheduling assistant,

500
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,799
or by some other digital employee,

501
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:18,400
a concierge who will be there supporting

502
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,240
him, will be providing service,

503
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,520
making sure every client is

504
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,280
satisfied, for a price that is

505
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,000
comparable to any other

506
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,720
software you buy online, it's

507
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,600
a fraction of a salary, a fraction of a salary, really

508
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,600
we're talking about these proportions, and

509
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,280
the advantage you get from all this

510
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,679
right, we talk about

511
00:20:38,679 --> 00:20:41,559
and specialize, right? Take care of what

512
00:20:41,559 --> 00:20:43,039
you do best, which sometimes is not just

513
00:20:43,039 --> 00:20:44,720
what you do best, it's what you

514
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,919
like to do. You're a dentist, you

515
00:20:46,919 --> 00:20:48,559
like that contact with people. You

516
00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:50,159
like to do the service, you like

517
00:20:50,159 --> 00:20:52,320
the healthcare area. But, wow, you have to

518
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,840
schedule, you have to pick up the phone.

519
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,360
Half the people who call you don't want

520
00:20:57,360 --> 00:21:00,320
your service for real. And if all this

521
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,039
screening could be done by a

522
00:21:02,039 --> 00:21:04,200
digital employee that scales as

523
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,200
your business needs, that starts

524
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,240
small, that fits your budget. And if

525
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:10,840
you need it, if you eventually

526
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,039
run a bigger Facebook campaign,

527
00:21:13,039 --> 00:21:14,840
or maybe open a new branch.

528
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,480
So if it's not working well, it scales

529
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,159
indefinitely according to your

530
00:21:19,159 --> 00:21:20,559
needs and only costs money when

531
00:21:20,559 --> 00:21:22,960
it speaks up. So people don't think it's just

532
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,039
talk, say how much is the minimum. Oh,

533
00:21:26,039 --> 00:21:29,080
wow, the minimum is R$ 360, right? That we

534
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,159
are charging. R$ 360, R$ 60 is for a

535
00:21:32,159 --> 00:21:34,000
company, guys. We're talking, it's people.

536
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,760
We have testimonials, we have

537
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,400
testimonials from the guy. Remember that one in the

538
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,440
last one we did there, where he said

539
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,320
like this: 'Oh, we had just in this last'

540
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,559
month more than... remember, he said it was

541
00:21:45,559 --> 00:21:48,360
Like, almost R$ 6,000 more in

542
00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:51,480
revenue here for a monthly fee of

543
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,360
R$ 200 and I don't know what else, right? In a condition

544
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:56,880
that in the end reveals

545
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,159
the disproportion between the cost and the

546
00:21:59,159 --> 00:22:02,000
actual benefit to revenue that

547
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,760
there is, and immediately. Imagine, Lucca,

548
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,200
if all your paid traffic campaigns

549
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,880
could be boosted by a

550
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,799
lead qualifier that's at the end

551
00:22:11,799 --> 00:22:13,480
making it so if your campaign used to cost

552
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,919
R$ 1 per click, if it costs 11, but

553
00:22:16,919 --> 00:22:19,440
it starts delivering only those who interest you.

554
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:20,840
I think that's an equation that

555
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,919
obviously works out and then some. And this

556
00:22:23,919 --> 00:22:26,240
example is still really cool because

557
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,679
once again we get that feeling of

558
00:22:28,679 --> 00:22:30,080
that feeling, right, of 'no, this isn't'

559
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,120
for me, this must be expensive. This

560
00:22:32,120 --> 00:22:34,760
specific franchise is a

561
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,240
franchise. This unit, right? It's a

562
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,279
small franchise, a small unit from

563
00:22:39,279 --> 00:22:41,200
a small city with 30,000 inhabitants.

564
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,200
Among other cities with thousands of

565
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,080
inhabitants. It's really tiny. And the

566
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,120
salesperson, we heard the story from the

567
00:22:48,120 --> 00:22:50,720
manager there. It had been years since anyone hit

568
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,799
the goal of 50 sales in a month, and they made 66

569
00:22:53,799 --> 00:22:55,760
sales that month. So, we didn't just

570
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,840
hit the goal, we crushed it. We

571
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,200
No, it was her, right? She was the one who hit the target, we...

572
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,200
She smashed the goal. And the funniest thing...

573
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,360
Is that a good part of these sales was...

574
00:23:06,360 --> 00:23:08,760
Handled by the digital salesperson. But where...

575
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,919
She had the best, the biggest improvement in...

576
00:23:10,919 --> 00:23:13,240
KPI in offline sales. Because she had...

577
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,559
Time to serve those who were really...

578
00:23:15,559 --> 00:23:18,080
Interested, working on referrals, while...

579
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,120
The digital employee was taking care of...

580
00:23:20,120 --> 00:23:22,640
What today the robot can do. So...

581
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,360
So, not implementing a technology that is...

582
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:29,039
Winning Nobel prizes on all fronts for R...

583
00:23:29,039 --> 00:23:32,159
360 to work in your company today is...

584
00:23:32,159 --> 00:23:35,520
A suicide. It's suicide. Well, folks, we...

585
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,559
We could stay here for how long...

586
00:23:37,559 --> 00:23:39,440
Talking about our experiences...

587
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,279
About what we've been observing...

588
00:23:41,279 --> 00:23:44,120
Daily in XMACNA's operations...

589
00:23:44,120 --> 00:23:46,720
But here's an invitation for those who...

590
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,039

Very systematic way. Quality material...

To publish here in Brazil and...

600
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,039
Reflect on this together as...

601
00:24:16,039 --> 00:24:17,880
impact on society and culture

602
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,159
at this moment, then, my thanks to

603
00:24:20,159 --> 00:24:23,960
everyone. See you soon. Thank you very much, XMACNA.

604
