LA MIU case study
Sexy underwear online shopping site for Chinese women established by Japanese man
2 reasons for start-up
1. Less chances of products being returned
2. No attractive female underwear in the market at that time
Monthly group discussion
-Let women choose favorable underwear among different brands (such as Victoria secret) without tag and give feedback to next product development.
Different preference from Japanese women
-like red
-examine the number of click to see what is their preference
Strong emphasis on models and photos
-go back to Tokyo once or twice a month to talk with designers and have photographers to take attractive photos using famous models
-"sold out" -> further heated boom
However, the founder, who was the only Japanese guy among 350 Chinese employees, failed to control its brand and employees amid anti-Japanese movement in China. He resigned in 2012.
