‍

About Us

01GROWTH Inc. is a professional services firm composed of members with hands-on experience in marketing, customer success, and sales across global markets and foreign enterprises. Guided by our mission, "Transforming into Globally Standardized Revenue Organizations," we identify and address challenges faced by revenue organizations, providing consulting and talent development services to drive solutions.

Our expertise spans GTM (Go-To-Market) strategy development, the establishment of Marketing Operations (MOps) and Revenue Operations (RevOps) frameworks—areas still gaining traction in Japan—and the integration of AI technologies. Using globally standardized frameworks, we support businesses in achieving sustainable growth.

Despite our lean team, we have elevated our industry presence, including publishing Japan's first specialized book on MOps and RevOps. To meet the growing demands of our expanding client base, we recently established a new office in Malaysia, advancing our business development efforts in Southeast Asia. We are actively recruiting hybrid talent who can engage in consulting for Japanese clients while contributing to regional growth initiatives.
