The GTM menu
Published starting rates, so you can size a Japan launch before you talk to anyone. Most engagements combine two or three lines; several run on revenue share instead of a retainer.
Local project management retainer
Market sizing, competitor analysis and positioning, turned into a Japan-specific launch plan rather than a translated version of your global one.
$4,000 / month ~
Web marketing & user acquisition
Paid and organic acquisition across the channels Japanese buyers actually use, run as a performance program with reported ROI.
$12,000 / month ~
Influencer & inbound
Direct access to a Japanese creator network through our marketing partner, with sourcing, negotiation and performance tracking handled end to end.
$7,000 / month ~
Social media management
Japanese-language accounts run by native operators — content planning, publishing, community management and response handling.
$5,000 / month ~
Event & pop-up activation
End-to-end event execution — venue negotiation, build, staffing and on-site operations — so you can run a physical launch without a local team.
$2,500 / day ~
Venue operations support
Trained hospitality staff deployed to your opening, pop-up or permanent site, drawn from the team that runs our own Tokyo venue.
$300 / person / day ~
Merchandise solutions
Getting the product on shelves and on the marketplaces Japanese consumers buy from — including the physical fixtures, through our merchandise partner.
Upfront + revenue share
Indicative starting rates. Japanese consumption tax (10%) is added to all invoices. Scope, duration and mix are set per engagement — most clients start with one or two lines and expand once traction is proven.
The rate card is not the only way to buy
The menu above is the retainer view. Two of our three engagement models put part or all of our compensation behind your Japan revenue instead.
Hybrid — retainer + performance
We act as your extended Japan team with dedicated resource across business development, partnerships and strategy. A monthly retainer is combined with performance-based commission.
Best for speed and scale — the equivalent of having a country manager from day one, backed by an existing network.
Pure revenue share
A fully performance-based model tied to Japan revenue. Lower upfront commitment, with scope defined around your needs — from lead generation through to full sales execution.
Best for low-risk market validation.
Budget-based engagement
We execute against a defined budget and clear KPIs — partnerships, campaigns, timelines. A structured, project-based approach with full transparency.
Best for controlled, goal-oriented expansion.
Costs that sit outside our fee
Media spend, influencer fees, venue and event costs, retail listing fees, product manufacturing and shipping, and any third-party licenses are billed at cost and paid by you. We do not mark them up, and you see the invoices.
Japanese consumption tax of 10% is added to all fees. Withholding tax may apply depending on your jurisdiction and treaty position — we will confirm the position for your country before contracting.
Merchandise solutions — capsule-toy machines, crane machines, photo booths, vending and signage — are quoted as upfront cost plus revenue share, because the fixture itself is a capital item.
Get a scoped number
Tell us the product, the target segment and the timeline. We will come back with a scoped monthly figure and the first ninety days broken down, before you commit to anything.
No heavy commitment. Just real execution.
