ABOUT US

CEO Shotaro Takechi　

I was born in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. While in college, I broadened my international perspective by studying in Canada for an extended period of time. After graduation, I worked for one of the biggest staffing agency in Japan.

I later became independent and strongly decided to “bridge all gaps between products and people” and “create the world’s best marketing company from Japan. Despite the lack of connections and the COVID-19 crisis, I have succeeded in funding the large-scale budget projects on several major crowdfunding sites and in introducing our products to major mass retailers and expanding our business.

While working as a specialist in managing my own product sales business and overseas negotiations, also I have established an online community to share and spread my own past failures where sales did not increase due to unclear product selection criteria, as well as my successful experience in introducing new overseas products to Japan using marketing techniques based on international sensibilities and out-of-the-box thinking.

My goal is to help everyone, from beginners to experts, acquire the ability to continue earning  independently.

Day by day, I continue to provide my own insights while researching the latest marketing trends and strategies.

COO Daichi Nagayama　

Born in Kagoshima Prefecture, I am engaged in supporting clients in discovering overseas brands/products as a hit brand producer for LEAGUE, while at the same time serving as COO of LEAGUE as the person in charge of organizing the team and promoting the business while creating an organization and detailed strategy in line with management policies within the company.

After graduating from Kyushu University, I faced a harsh working environment at a major manufacturer and lost my job due to health problems. I also had debts of more than 10 million yen and was at the bottom of my life.

Under such circumstances, I launched an import x crowdfunding business, which I could challenge without any personal fund, and achieved annual sales of over 40 million yen in the first year. I have appeared on TV, collaborated with celebrities, and achieved handling at famous retailers. Currently, my products are sold at over 700 stores nationwide, and my cumulative sales have reached the billion-dollar stage.

About half of the products I have discovered from overseas so far have achieved crowdfunding results exceeding 10 million yen, and all three major crowdfunding platforms (Makuake/GREENFUNDING/CAMPCFIRE) have produced projects exceeding 10 million yen.

I specializes in discovering hit brands that generate hundreds of millions of dollars per year with a single product.

Currently, I am committed to supporting like-minded sales associates and clients in order to achieve my mission of “Bringing as many great foreign brands to Japan and producing hit brands that everyone knows about”.
