Japan demandcheck pack

The Japan demand check pack (standard) is a one-off study of one category in one country on the standard source set. We read Japanese social media and e-commerce reviews in the original language and write the findings up in English. Fixed $7,500. Three to four weeks. Named SKUs, titles or extra countries are pack ④.

When brands use this

  • Your board is debating Japan and the only input so far is a distributor’s pitch
  • You want one category from the list, on the standard source set, before you commit
  • You need one pack for an internal paper, without naming SKUs yet

What you receive

  • Three to five demand hypotheses, each supported by real consumer quotes in Japanese with English translation
  • How Japanese consumers describe your competitors, with praise and complaints separated
  • What to verify in the next 30, 60 and 90 days
  • A PDF in English, written to be circulated internally as-is

How it runs

  1. A 60-minute call to agree the category, competitors and questions
  2. We collect and read the material in Japanese, not in translation
  3. We write the hypotheses and attach the evidence to each one
  4. A 60-minute readout after delivery so nothing is left ambiguous
