This week in our Online Entrepreneur Spotlight series, we’re thrilled to introduce you to Martine Mussies, the mastermind behind Japan Fans. Together with her talented colleagues, Martine has been revolutionizing sticker marketing in the vibrant city of Utrecht. Through her passion and drive, she’s brought new energy and creativity to this exciting field, and we can’t wait to see what she’ll accomplish next.
Here’s the Scoop on Sticker Marketing
Sticker marketing has been around for decades, but it’s never been as fun and effective as it is now. In the city of Utrecht, the Netherlands, a group of creative makers called the Japan Fans have taken the art of sticker marketing to a whole new level. They have been using stickers to promote their non-profit organization that focuses on spreading Japanese culture and doing charity projects, with the goal of establishing their own Japanese Cultural Centre in Utrecht.
Stickers Here, There & Everywhere
The Japan Fans make stickers of all kinds of Japanese elements, from kendo and karate figures to cute sushi and sakura blossoms, and even their own original logo and digitalized calligraphy. Their stickers can be found all over the city, on lampposts, traffic lights, bus stops, and park benches. They have also started a social media campaign with the hashtag #japanfansutrecht to encourage people to share their spotted stickers.
A Marketing Revolution
The Japan Fans are not a business, but they have shown that sticker marketing can be a fun and effective way to promote your organization and spread your message. By creating stickers that are visually appealing and culturally relevant, they have captured the attention of the people of Utrecht, who have been sharing their spotted stickers on social media and even collecting them as if they were trading cards.
Vision on the Horizon
But what sets the Japan Fans apart is their vision for a Japanese centre in Utrecht. This “Japans Cultureel Centrum” would serve as a hub for all things Japanese, from language classes to tea ceremonies, and from calligraphy workshops to martial arts demonstrations. It would be a safe place for the community to learn more about Japanese (and other Asian) arts and cultures.
By using stickers to promote their organization, the Japan Fans have raised awareness for their cause and attracted more volunteers and supporters. They have also shown that sticker marketing can be used for a good cause, that makes a positive impact.
Meet the Founder
Japan Fans was founded Martine Mussies, an artistic researcher based in the Netherlands with a passion for Japanese culture. Martine has a deep love and appreciation for Japanese culture. She created the non-profit Japan Fans as a way to share her passion for Japan with others and to promote the beauty and diversity of Japanese culture.
