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 

I am an expert in generating consistent sales, from finding hit products to developing retail strategies.

You can challenge yourself and succeed from the bottom as well as yourself! Together we will discover hit products and produce ongoing sales through store development.

At LEAGUE, I am the COO of LEAGUE, responsible for organizing the internal team and promoting the business while developing the organization and detailed strategies in line with management policies.

After graduating from Kyushu University, I accepted a position at a major manufacturer, but what awaited me was a corporate life of overtime work and power-harassing bosses. I reached my physical and mental limits, became ill, lost my job, and hit rock bottom in my life. I invested over 4 million yen of my own money to leave the workforce and live independently. As a result of being exposed to various businesses, I discovered the import x crowdfunding business. I was able to secure exclusive sales contracts with seven foreign manufacturers and achieved annual sales of more than 40 million yen in my first year. Since then, I have produced items with monthly sales of 25 million yen, and I have an advantage in finding hit products.

At the same time, I have appeared on famous programs such as “Mezamashi TV,” “King’s Brunch,” and “NHK,” and collaborated with celebrities Da〇go, Ryogo Matsu〇, Kinki〇ids, and others on TV and SNS. In addition, the products I was involved in have been offered to be handled by very famous retailers such as Loft, Tokyu Hands, Yodobashi Camera, and Tsutaya Home Appliances, and are now lined up in stores throughout Japan.(Over 700 stores)

Currently, I am offering a program to build a merchandising business for like-minded people and people who are in the same situation as I was in the past. I am in this support business with the hope that more and more product sales players will be able to challenge themselves from the bottom and succeed, as I did, and that many of the brands and items I have been involved with will become popular in Japan.
