TAKASUKE K.
Amazon Japan Consultant | SEO, PPC, Listings & Market Localization
Are you selling on Amazon Japan — or considering entering the Japanese market? I’m Takasuke, a native Japanese Amazon consultant based in Japan. I help international businesses understand Amazon Japan and adapt their products, listings, and marketing for Japanese shoppers. I have over five years of experience working with e-commerce and Amazon-related projects in Japan. Most recently, I supported the Amazon Japan account of an international sports brand with multiple product lines and approximately 70 SKUs. My work included: Amazon Japan market and competitor research Japanese keyword and search-term research Listing optimization, including titles, bullet points, and backend search terms Sponsored Products campaign analysis and optimization Bid adjustments and negative keyword management Pricing and competitor analysis Product image and content localization for Japanese shoppers Seller Central catalog and product information improvements Analysis of Sessions, CVR, sales, ACoS, ROAS, and other performance data Communication with Amazon Japan Seller Support During this recent project, sales increased while we were working on pricing, advertising, SEO, and product listings. Since several factors changed at the same time, I do not claim that any single action caused the increase. I believe good Amazon management means looking carefully at the data, separating facts from assumptions, and deciding what to test or improve next. More than translation Selling in Japan is not simply about translating an English Amazon listing into Japanese. Japanese customers may search differently, respond to different product benefits, expect different information, and compare your product with different competitors. I can help you think through these differences and make practical improvements for the Japanese marketplace. I can also assist with Japan-based market research, trade shows, supplier communication, and product sourcing when local Japanese support is needed. I lived in the United States for about six years and work in both Japanese and English. This helps me communicate directly with overseas clients while also looking at their products from a Japanese customer's perspective. If you are considering Amazon Japan, already selling here but not getting the results you expected, or simply need someone in Japan to investigate a problem, feel free to contact me. I’ll tell you clearly what I can help with, what I need to research, and what I cannot conclude from the available data
