Overseas Business Development/Planning
My name is GuangYan "Link" Nie, a generalist that lives up to name by being the missing link to the success of my previous positions. Born in Taiwan, raised in America, and worked in Tokyo. I can adapt and "alt-tab" my mindset as the environment requires. This allows me to communicate with people of different backgrounds on an appropriate and personal level. Filled with curiosity and a strong entrepreneurial spirit, I always question and search for inspiration in my surroundings. At the age of 20, I started investing in the stock market and tutoring English while attending school. With the money I saved, I opened a Taiwanese-American fusion restaurant as a hobby. During my employment in Japan, I was in charge of Planning, Marketing, and Overseas Business Development (BD). I started as a sales in Journal Standard and was quickly promoted to the headquarter within 10 months. With a keen sense of business acumen, my proposal was selected as the winner out of 300 entries. With high expectations, the company allowed me to oversee the “machi machi” project as its project leader. As a project leader, I dealt with end-to-end services which required me to become acquainted with all the necessary components of a successful project. Things such as store design, visual design, contract formulation, logistics, import/export, PR, marketing, data analysis, budget management, overseas liaison, and most importantly, time management. During my time as a project leader, I had to make sure everything went smoothly and timely. All the deadlines had to be met and resources had to be allocated to where they are needed. During my time overseeing machi machi Japan, we were able to recover the initial cost within three months. With my trilingual capability and network, I was able to lower the operation cost by 75%. Through communication, I was able to maintain a healthy relationship with our franchisor, which resulted in an extremely favorable contract. Soon after its inception, machi machi became one of the most profitable brands within our corporate. We aggressively campaigned through social media (IG, FB, Twitter), television networks (Asahi, Matsuko, Sukkiri), radio (J-wave, Tokyo FM) and print media (Nikkei), and even convinced Jay Chou to collaborate with us by having his music video shot at our venue. Once the brand stabilized, I was transferred to the Overseas Business Development section, as the company hopes to utilize my talent in the overseas market. As soon as I arrived at the new section, I quickly reviewed and revamped our existing operation manuals and business projection in hopes of elevating our profit. I made our original brands franchise-friendly while exploring a new logistical route for export/import which saved the company over 4 million yen. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, I have retreated to Taiwan to ensure my own safety. As the future market ecosystem remain unstable, all the corporates are still trying to figure out what is next. In my opinion, Data Analysis and EC will become more imperative in the future market and I believe with my experience, I will be able to help my future employer thrive. 您好,我的名字叫聶光彥。 出生於台北,在美國加州留學12年,在日本讀書就業5年。 從學生時代就開始參與學生會跟體育校隊等等的團體活動,並在高中時期開始選修大學程度的課程挑戰自己。 由於家庭背景的因素也讓我擁有創業跟挑戰的精神去嘗試不同的事務。 在大學二年級的時候返台,就讀國立台北科技大學並成為全台第一位以主席的身份參加紐約模擬聯合國的安理會。 為了增進自己的經驗跟能力,也在當兵之前經營了自己的複合式餐廳Link's Kitchen。 因對於日本文化跟潮流持有興趣的關係,在退伍後到了東京的早稻田大學進修日文也在文化服裝學院取得服裝設計的文憑。 畢業後就到日本知名集團Baycrew's以銷售員的身份就業,並在10個月的時間被升遷到本部做企劃跟行銷。 在本部的提案通過後,爭取到代理知名手搖飲料品牌machi machi到日本的機會,以及以一條龍的專案管理者身份承辦了整個project。 擁有多國語言跟人脈的優勢也讓整個企劃案的營運成本減低了75%,凸顯了海外資源的重要性。 整個企劃案不但在短短的3個月內回本,也爭取到了上藝人Matsuko的節目,Nikkei報紙,還有說服周杰倫一起合作拍攝MV。 由於表現優異又在半年內調動到海外事業開發部,把我的能力發揮在多種品牌上。 因為一直是以BD的身份在工作,所以從零到尾的事情都得承辦跟管理。 簡單的區分別為下: 店鋪設計,周邊設計,行銷,推銷,合約,後勤,PR,銷售數據分析,開發,EC,物流,以及時間管控。 把一個專案從零做到有必須要有一個多元化的團隊,但是因為大家的部門跟專業都不同必須要有一個核心角色來做協調跟管理。 畢竟是得看的最多的角色,在專案上軌後的疑難雜症跟後續也必須做追踪跟臨機應變的處理。 我的工作能力跟學習能力都很強,每到一個新的環境都能夠在短期的時間內適應並且活躍。 因為溝通能力強,我也能夠承辦對應世界各國的窗口,以及維持友好的合作關係。 好奇心旺盛的我也會不斷的為自己所承辦的工作不斷尋找更有效率的執行方式。 對於未來趨勢的想法,我覺得EC跟數據分析會成為很多企業的關注,我也希望能夠把我的經驗跟才能貢獻給貴公司共同創造更好的業績。 ニエ ガンヤンと申します。 台湾で生まれ、アメリカで育ちました。12年間アメリカで生活した後、日本で就職しました。 学生時代はずっと生徒会に参加したりとアメリカンフットボールを中心にスポーツ系の部活動に励んでいました。それらの活動からコミュニケーション能力や協調性に欠かせないチームワーク精神を育んできました。幼少期から台湾やアメリカ、日本を行き来し生活してきた為新しい環境に適応することも非常に得意です。 新しい事にチャレンジする事がとても好きで、アルバイトパートナーや正社員、実際に企業をするなど経験を豊富に積んできました。 以前の職場では販売、企画、マーケティング、と海外事業開発を担当しました。 常に新しいものを産み出さなければならないゼロイチと戦略を考えディールを行うBD部門を担当しており、様々な分野においての幅広い知識と理解、細やかな時間管理スキルが必要とされるため。またプロジェクトリーダーも務めブランディング監督を行い、あらゆるプロセスが期限通りに進むように指示出しや手配を行いました。行ってきた業務内容例としては、店舗デザイン、ビジュアルコーディネーション、PR、EC、ロジスティクス、契約編集、セールス数字管理・分析、スケジュール管理などが挙げれます。会社に提案したブランドは海外のリソースを活用することで運営コストを75%削減し三か月間以内で利益を出すことが出来ました。 私の一番の強みはコミュニケーション能力と時間管理、数字分析、提案力です。また常に求められたリクエストは期待以上の結果を出すように努め達成してきた為、顧客や上長の信頼を勝ち取ってきました。様々な国の文化を理解できるため、海外との取引ももかなり得意です。 今までの経験とノーハウを貢献していきたいと考えています。
