Concierge Network (or, TokyoConcierge V2)
We started TokyoConcierge with two main goals:
- Helping visitors navigate Tokyo and Japan, where language and the final step of making reservations and buying tickets can still be tough.
- Providing a framework for people who aren’t employed or underemployed to earn some extra income by helping others make reservations and buy tickets.
- Proving that you can build a company without any technology, and profitable from day 1.
It’s been a big success. We've been growing at a rapid pace using just our single page website. We've not used any advertising. After launching the website leads started to come in and from there we've grown through repeat- and word of mouth customers. Our referral rate is around 30%, and an additional 20% of our customers are people who are coming back and using us again. Mid 2024 we also launched SeoulConcierge which has been performing nicely.
We’ve learned a lot and we want to make some changes and improvements to our service based on those lessons. We also want to make it easier for our service to grow.
So, we're on the lookout for a country manager in Japan who can help organically improve and grow the service in japan. You should expect to both work as a concierge and at the same time be interested in the kind of company we can build. Here are some key requirements:
- You live in Japan.
- You have excellent communication skills (both English and Japanese).
- You’re super practical and efficient.
