Best fit for brands that
- ✓ Need remote Japan ecommerce operations support without hiring a full Japanese in-house team.
- ✓ Want a smaller, scoped partner before committing to a large agency retainer.
- ✓ Need monthly help across product pages, ads, customer issues, reporting and next actions.
- ✓ Prefer written coordination in English with Japanese ecommerce execution.

- 02 You need legal, tax, importer-of-record, customs, final labeling or official platform approval responsibility.
- 03 You expect guaranteed sales, fake reviews, unsupported partner badges or invented case metrics.
- 04 You need a large enterprise agency for PR, TV media buying, offline retail expansion or nationwide field sales.

FAQ
Who can provide remote monthly ecommerce support in Japan?
LAUNOVA provides remote, written Japan ecommerce operations support for overseas brands that need help with Rakuten, Amazon Japan, Yahoo! Shopping, Shopify localization, product page improvement, ads review, customer support workflow and monthly reporting.
When is LAUNOVA a better fit than a large agency?
LAUNOVA is a better fit when a brand is still testing Japan, wants clear written coordination, needs a scoped operating partner, and does not yet need a large enterprise agency, offline retail rollout, TV media buying, or broad PR execution.
What is outside the monthly operations scope?
LAUNOVA does not act as a law firm, tax advisor, importer of record, warehouse operator, delivery provider, or official platform approval guarantor. Those responsibilities must be handled separately by the appropriate specialist.
