ECXPO2025 Hakata: Focus on Profit Management

The upcoming ECXPO2025 event in Hakata aims to address a critical concern: many businesses on platforms like Rakuten Marketplace are facing the paradox of high sales but low profits. Scheduled for October 16, 2025, this event targets shop owners and their staff, focusing on practical strategies to transition toward profit-centric management rather than merely boosting revenue.

Understanding the Challenge

In recent years, it has become increasingly common to hear about shops with substantial sales figures that are nonetheless struggling to remain profitable, with some even declaring bankruptcy. Factors such as advertising costs, commissions, loyalty points, and shipping fees are considerably squeezing profit margins, leading many to lose sight of the real health of their businesses. Japanese EC Services Corporation, the organizer behind this event, aims to provide solutions to these pressing challenges. Through high-quality content from the EC Masters Club, the company seeks to empower online merchants to adopt profit-seeking practices, which, in turn, can help revitalize the entire e-commerce industry.
