Portfolio(Overseas clients)

Hello! Thank you for visiting my portfolio.

My name is “Koki” and I am a part-time web writer based in Tokyo. I started my activities as a web writer in May 2024.

This page provides information not only about my achievements and work ethic as a writer, but also about what kind of person I am.

Based on my work experience so far, if you find me interesting or feel that you can entrust work to me, please feel free to contact me.

For work inquiries, please DM me on X. I will definitely reply within 24 hours. I would be happy to have a frank conversation with you, even if it’s just a small exchange.

About Me

After joining a construction company as a new graduate, I worked in estimation and ordering for 1 year and in construction management for 2.5 years. After that, I changed jobs and have been working for about 5 years at a major foreign-affiliated internet retailer, managing inventory, quality control, and logistics operations.

My Strengths as a Writer

  • Utilizing my experience in creating work instructions and standard operating procedures for craftsmen to write easily understandable text for anyone.
  • Organizing the overall flow and putting it together in an easy-to-read structure.

As a web writer, I have been working part-time since May 2024, but my future goal is to become independent.

Currently, I mainly write SEO articles and also manage SNS accounts. In the future, I would like to expand the scope of my work to include writing interview articles that make use of my communication skills, directing, and serving as an SEO advisor.

Main Activities

  • Writing articles for owned media
  • Creating X (Twitter) posts

What gives me a sense of fulfillment in my work as a writer is when the words I produce receive positive reactions such as “thank you” or “like!”.

Specific Examples

My First Writing Assignment
When I wrote an article about my own love experience and delivered it, I received the words, “Thank you for the wonderful story!”.

Writing for a Job Change Service’s Owned Media
By researching a lot of information and providing articles that allow readers to naturally solve their problems, I have been receiving continuous writing requests for more than six months.

I will contribute to the client’s goals by providing “useful and easy-to-understand articles” that can solve readers’ problems.

Thoughts on AI Blog/Writing

AI has greatly changed the world so far. On the other hand, there are many negative images such as “AI is taking away jobs” and “AI is encroaching on the human world”. I don’t think so, rather I believe:

“AI is a partner and an existence that enriches our lives.”

Reasons for Using AI

When I felt the limitations of writing while balancing my main job and side job, I encountered ChatGPT and Claude, and by learning prompt techniques, I became able to create better articles.

By making full use of AI, actively disseminating information myself, and increasing my influence, I want to increase the number of “people who can utilize AI”. I have a vision of making Japan a little richer.

AI and the Talent Market Going Forward

With the evolution of AI, the speed of change in the world will further increase. Along with the changes, the required human resources will also change drastically. In this blog, I would like to share information about AI and my own experiences and mindset, empathize with the concerns of AI beginners, learn together, and make it a tool for living a positive life.

The essence of a writer is to empathize with and solve the problems of the reader. This does not change in any era. Let’s grow together in the AI era as well!

About Client Work

My own thoughts that I want to convey and what the client and readers are looking for are not necessarily the same. I believe that the mission of a writer is to transform what the sender (client) wants to convey into a form that appeals to the reader, solve the reader’s problems, and achieve the purpose.

Adhering to writing rules with a client-first approach, understanding their thoughts, and digging deep so that the reader’s goals can be achieved. I will deliver high-quality articles while valuing such a process.

Hobbies and Areas of Expertise

Good at “non-stiff” and “humorous” writing

While being conscious of using correct Japanese, I am good at writing “non-stiff sentences” and “humorous and easy-to-read sentences”. In fact, when I wrote an article about my love experience, I received requests saying “It was interesting” and “I want to read other episodes”.

Genres I Have Written About

  • Job change genre (mainly owned media articles)
  • Love genre (personal experiences, etc.)
  • AI (generative AI-related)
  • YouTube scripts (I have written for YouTubers with over 100,000 subscribers)

In the future, I would like to take on various genres while making use of my curiosity. In particular, I enjoy gaining business knowledge, so while running my blog, I am working on themes that have a high affinity for it.

Hobby 1: Weight Training

I am often asked by people I meet for the first time, “Do you work out?” I like training at the gym, but I find it more enjoyable to train at home where I can concentrate without worrying about people’s eyes.

  • Training 2-3 times a week
  • Playing YouTube muscle training videos and motivating myself by shouting out loud to boost motivation
  • I used to go to a famous gym, but now I have settled on the most cost-effective public gym

Hobby 2: Watching Sports

I like watching a wide range of sports, including the American professional basketball league (NBA), European soccer, and rugby national team matches.

NBA: Kobe Bryant is a player I respect so much that I can say he is my life’s mentor. Watching the Japan Games in 2022 and seeing Curry and Rui Hachimura in person is a memory of a lifetime.

European Soccer: I’m a Barcelona fan. In 2023, I watched the “Bayern vs. Manchester City” match in a 40,000 yen seat.

Rugby: I played in high school. I strongly support the Japanese national team and get excited when they take on powerhouse countries.

Hobby 3: Reading

I think reading is the strongest hobby where you can absorb the knowledge and experience of your predecessors for 1,000 to 2,000 yen. I often read business books, history books, and books about managers, but since I started as a web writer, I have also started reading novels. I would like to write an article introducing recommended books someday.

In Conclusion

I believe that a writer serves as a bridge between the sender and the reader. In order to match what the sender “wants to convey” with what the reader “wants to know”, the writer himself/herself needs to imagine the reader, research what they want to know, and summarize it in an easy-to-understand manner.

To create better articles, I would like to have detailed meetings with clients. Specifically, I will carefully interview them about “what kind of content, for what kind of person, for what purpose they want to convey”, and write accurately.

Thank you for reading this far. If you are even a little bit interested, please feel free to contact me via DM on Twitter. I will definitely reply within 24 hours.

I look forward to working with you in the future!
