MESSAGE
Beginner’s Mind
At TeamSpirit Inc., our mission is "Make everyone an Innovator." We strive to build a sustainable society where individuals can work in creative and dynamic ways. Our specific initiative, the “TeamSpirit” series, was launched in 2011. It has since served many as a platform for workstyle reform. Beyond simply improving work efficiency, it supports innovative workstyles by valuing people as vital capital in the era of AI.
"TeamSpirit" is a SaaS product designed with an intuitive UI/UX, allowing users to centrally manage activity data, which can then be used for tasks like attendance Management, expense reporting, and time tracking. Furthermore, this data can be synthesized and analyzed to ensure internal control and provide workers with valuable insights. We are confident that these endeavors, promoting intellectual productivity and enhancing employee wellbeing, are key to our client companies’ success. We remain committed to continuously refining these efforts.
Being pioneers of SaaS solutions for corporations in Japan, we have spent over a decade intensifying all aspects of corporate activities. This includes the agile development of SaaS products, leveraging the internet for marketing and sales initiatives, and implementing customer success strategies to boost client convenience. Looking ahead to FY2023, we plan to robustly expand our flagship product, "TeamSpirit", into the enterprise market, targeting larger corporations with 1,000 or more employees. At the same time, we will concentrate on developing innovative products that will form the backbone of future generations. We firmly believe that these strategies will help us reach our medium-term business goals, aiming for an Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) of at least 7 billion yen and an operating margin of at least 15%. Achieving these economic goals, we trust, will instill confidence in our clients to continue using our services over the long term.
Our objective is to foster an environment where customers contribute to each other. We do this by enhancing our services based on customer feedback and extending these improved services to a wider client base. This "Circle of Contribution" underscores the importance we place on the personal growth and self-fulfillment of each of our employees. We are wholly committed to making significant societal contributions and promoting self-realization at an elevated level. Our goal is to bring happiness to our employees and their families from all perspectives, and actively contribute to our customers’ success.
With this dedication, we will immerse ourselves in our daily operations. We genuinely request the continued support and guidance from all our stakeholders.
