We Hosted a Growth Study Session with Mr. Miura of Miura Takuya Shoten and Mr. Takamatsu of YOU TOKYO and Mikawaya

We held a study session with Mr. Miura of Miura Takuya Shoten, which sells diet and health products including charcoal butter coffee, and Mr. Takamatsu, who runs the curly hair care brand YOU TOKYO and the Shopify subscription app Mikawaya, along with members of the StoreHero growth team.

The study session involved reviewing the actual Shopify store and ad dashboards of Miura Takuya Shoten together, with everyone sharing ideas on potential areas for improvement.

Mr. Miura has been an early adopter of Shopify, building a passionate fan base while selling health food products such as Charcoal Butter Coffee and EAT HACK. He is also a pioneer in the genre of "Solo EC" — running an e-commerce business independently to achieve personal fulfillment — and his book on the subject has become a hit.

Mr. Takamatsu is an expert in subscription commerce, running the curly hair care brand YOU TOKYO while also offering Mikawaya, a Shopify subscription app.

While the specific details of the session are private, Mr. Miura, Mr. Takamatsu, and the StoreHero growth team each shared their perspectives in a wide-ranging and in-depth discussion on growth topics including Facebook/Google advertising, PR, landing pages, and social media strategy. The session also surfaced some directly actionable improvement ideas, making it both productive and enjoyable.

The StoreHero growth team supports a wide range of merchants on a daily basis, and this was a valuable opportunity to gain fresh inspiration from practitioners like Mr. Miura and Mr. Takamatsu, who are deeply hands-on in their operations.

Going forward, we hope to continue creating opportunities for learning — not only through internal knowledge sharing and study sessions, but also by inviting outside experts. Thank you, Mr. Miura and Mr. Takamatsu, for your time despite your busy schedules.
