Multi-Agent Reasoning with Large Language Models for Effective Corporate Planning

Overview

The paper explores the innovative application of Large Language Models (LLMs) in corporate planning, particularly in developing sales strategies. It proposes that LLMs can significantly enhance the value-driven sales process.

Key Concepts and Methodology

Application of LLMs in Sales Strategy

• Focus: Utilizing LLMs to devise strategies maximizing customer value, satisfaction, and benefits.
• Process: Involves a five-step iterative method: market landscape survey, customer profiling, product usage analysis, sales strategy formulation, and creating persuasive sales materials.

SocraPlan and SocraSynth

• SocraPlan: Methodology using LLMs for summarizing, analyzing data, and optimizing sales stages.
• SocraSynth: Employs Socratic Synthesis, combining human moderators and LLM agents for generating profound questions, overcoming human reasoning limitations.

Data-Driven Sales Approach

• Emphasizes insights generation, decision support, and enhanced customer engagement through personalized sales strategies.

Case Study and Findings

Market Study and Data Collection

• LLMs used for market studies, cybersecurity threat analysis, and sales playbook development.
• Challenges include formulating questions to explore "unknown unknowns."

Debate and Decision Generation

• LLMs engaged in debates to formulate strategies and consensus proposals for sales plans.

Evaluation and Results

• Demonstrates SocraPlan's effectiveness in tailoring playbooks to customer profiles, enhancing engagement and strategy development.

Comparative Analysis with Human Experts

• SocraPlan's approach evaluated against human experts, showing superior performance in customer engagement and actionable guidance.

Conclusions

• Highlights the importance of human-agent collaboration in sales strategy.
• Emphasizes the potential of LLMs in corporate planning, offering diverse perspectives and data-driven insights.
• Future work to focus on real-world implementations of SocraPlan.
