Background of the event -The real event held for the first time this summer was a great success, and the average age increased a little- [Image 7

[Image 8

This summer, the real event “Mokumoku Reading Festival 2022”, which was held for the first time by both companies to commemorate the first anniversary of Chapters, was a great success, with more than 200 customers using Chapters coming to the venue. It was a wonderful two days in which we could realize that we have grown into a service that is loved by our customers.
On the other hand, when I actually talked to customers, I said, “I participated in the event, so I want to talk to other customers, but I still don’t have the courage.” I would like to talk for a long time,” “I’m using Chapters for the purpose of romance, so I’d like you to meet more often,” and so on. , We have decided to implement it in response to two points, which were particularly requested: 1. Real place 2. Romance needs.

In addition, the number of registrants for Chapters has been increasing rapidly this fall, and the average age has risen slightly from 28 years old when the service started, and customers in their 30s are becoming the main demographic.
Customers in their 30s and 40s have more opportunities to say, “I’ve been waiting for this kind of service!” We also had the highest percentage of event visitors.
For Chapters, who pursue chance encounters triggered by books, age is just one of the small factors in encounters, but in this real event, there are some customers who can push their backs by separating the ages of the participants. So, I tried adding a condition as a challenge.
Chapters always considers co-creation with customers to be important in service operation. In the future, we would like to deepen exchanges between customers and services through various events, and we would like to promote service development from the customer’s perspective. The autumn of reading has arrived! A real “ear ear” experience where you can meet someone wonderful through a book.

About 70% of the customers answered that they read one or less books each month, so we hope that by adding gifts to the books, they will feel that reading time is a fun experience.
From autumn to the end of the year, when the desire to read increases, there will be a lot of fun gifts! Thankfully, the number of
registrants is increasing, so we recommend applying for a 3-month plan that is affordable and reliable.
In addition, in October, the theme of the book selection is “Whisper of the Heart”, and for the first time as Chapters, the title of the book is being revealed. Of course, the work is Aoi Hiiragi’s manga “Whisper of the Heart”. In addition, we carefully select paperback works based on three keywords that are important in the story of Mimi Sumaseba.
