~The Road to ¥100 Million in Annual Cross-Border E-Commerce Sales~
Simply launching a cross-border e-commerce store on Shopify does not automatically mean you will start selling overseas. While the barriers to entry for cross-border e-commerce have lowered, very few companies are actually achieving their target sales.
A key factor is the lack of a clear strategy for "how to grow sales" in cross-border e-commerce, along with poorly defined roles within the organization.
In this seminar, we will cover strategic frameworks for those launching cross-border e-commerce for the first time, as well as growth tips for companies that have started but are struggling to scale — all based on real case studies.

【Profile】
After returning from studying abroad in the UK, he joined a company supporting Japanese businesses in their overseas expansion. In 2014, he spun off the division through an MBO (management buyout) to establish his own company.
Under the mission of "Delivering the appeal of Japan to the world," he has spent 17 years supporting the overseas web marketing efforts of Japanese companies alongside team members from Japan, the United States, China, Australia, and Malaysia. He has achieved remarkable results across numerous cross-border e-commerce projects, including growing a cross-border EC site from ¥3.4 billion in annual revenue toward ¥100 billion.
Alongside supporting Japanese companies in their global expansion, he runs a Cross-Border EC & Global Web Marketing YouTube channel with over 10,000 subscribers and shares insights on domestic and international web marketing via X (formerly Twitter).
