Frequently Asked Questions

Jan 12, 2005 update

1. I need more detailed contact info (such as TEL,FAX, e-mail address) of Japanese media! Why don't you mention them in the web site?
   
   If you just want to post your press release, you can find and use “Japanese” distribution services. But, just a moment! Are you really ready to start media relation activity in Japan market? Do you have the following items?
   
   - (Well localized) Japanese press release
   - Press kit for Japanese people (paper and data)
   - Press desk to answer the questions from Japanese journalists quickly in Japan (by TEL/FAX/e-mail)
   - Media coverage monitoring staff
   
   Without these items, it is predictable that almost of your efforts will come to nothing.
   
   I believe that the contents in the site will help you effectively to make your marketing plan for Japanese market, and to check the results of your own /your agent's activities in Japan market (and then, you can proceed to the next step). Meanwhile, if you hope to earn money in Japan market, it is true that you have to have a communication staff can communicate with Japanese media in native level Japanese every time. Don't forget, your target, Japan market is very huge and very spoilt.
   
   
   
2. I need Japanese reporters' info including name, tel and e-mail address...
   
   Sorry, in Japan, it's illegal to open publicly/sell/use personal info without his/her permission.
