01Why it works in Japan

Why the same budget works differently.

Advertising multiplies whatever it lands on.

  • Ads magnify the site

    The same spend converts very differently depending on the site behind it. A translated site is a bucket with holes.

  • B2B and B2C want different things

    B2B ads exist to create meetings. B2C ads exist to drive purchases and awareness.

  • Long decisions need a second touch

    Japanese buyers research before they act. Retargeting brings back the visitor who downloaded, or the shopper who left a cart.

06FAQ

Before you spend on ads.

Do you take a percentage of our ad spend?

No. Media budget goes to Google, Meta, LINE or Yahoo! directly. We charge for running it, never a percentage of it.

Can we advertise before the site is ready?

You can, but it is usually money spent on visitors who leave. Whether your site is ready to receive paid traffic is one of the things the Market Entry Report answers before any campaign is planned.
