We Know Japan

We Know Japan

To connect with overseas customers, brands must have first-hand knowledge of the local's consumption behaviours as a means to create memorable brand stories that resonate with those target audiences.

At Narrative Creatures, we have an in-depth understanding of Japan, its culture and the people. With that knowledge, we can effectively help businesses validate potential markets in Japan, develop robust positioning strategies for cross-border selling and establish deep emotional connections between brands and their Japanese customers.

We will design the most practical approach to localise your brand, and our research will provide cultural insights so that you cannot be misunderstood.

If you are exploring desirable new markets for your product or service internationally, come and have a chat with us! Japan could be your next profitable market!

About

Our mission is to emotionally tie businesses and their audience together with the power of stories.

We believe for anyone to engage and have meaning interactions with a brand, they must first experience the stories of joy, love, anticipation and trust that cultivated the brand. Our Narrative Creature was born to find these stories, and we believe all businesses have good emotional stories to share.
