E-Guardian Launches Crowdfunding Operation Support Services
E-Guardian, a comprehensive internet security company based in Minato, Tokyo, has recently announced the launch of its "Crowdfunding Operation Support Services." This new offering aims to support crowdfunding businesses by handling various backend tasks, allowing project managers to concentrate on their core activities.
As crowdfunding becomes increasingly popular worldwide, with a projected annual growth rate of 13.5%, it is essential for project managers to have a robust support system. In Japan, the rising number of crowdfunding companies has resulted in more projects being launched and increased funds being raised. For instance, in 2024 alone, it is expected that over 25,000 projects in major domestic sites will generate approximately 43.2 billion yen in funds.
Despite this growth, many crowdfunding project managers face challenges in preparing for campaigns. The responsibilities often include crafting compelling project descriptions, planning promotional strategies to attract backers, and selecting enticing rewards. Unfortunately, this often leaves little time to adequately manage the post-launch operations necessary for successful crowdfunding campaigns, such as packing rewards and sending thank-you notes. Moreover, these tasks can consume considerable resources, diverting focus from their essential duties and hampering the smooth progression of their projects.
To mitigate these issues, E-Guardian's "Crowdfunding Operation Support Services" will take on a plethora of backend tasks once a project begins, including sending thank-you letters and emails, as well as managing reward packaging and shipment. This will allow project managers to allocate their time and expertise towards planning and improving their offerings. Additionally, to ensure the platform's safety, E-Guardian will conduct background checks on project implementers, verify identification documents, and review project content. By identifying and eliminating risks in advance, the services aim to create a secure platform for both project stakeholders and supporters.
E-Guardian also emphasizes customer support, ensuring that inquiries from backers are addressed promptly and professionally, thus enhancing overall satisfaction and project experiences. The response from companies that have already adopted this service has been overwhelmingly positive, reflecting its ability to relieve the pressure on crowdfunding businesses and contribute to their ongoing growth.
In its mission to guard and improve the quality of life, E-Guardian pledges to continue developing specialized and high-quality services that enhance convenience and richness in people's lives.
