Designer Hana self-reported ¥7.5 million in third-year revenue

Hana sells graphic-design commissions mainly through companies and referrals, with one-off jobs working out to roughly ¥6,000 an hour, while digital templates sell as one-time purchases on a marketplace. She reports ¥7.5 million in 2025 revenue and about ¥700,000 in business expenses, with client work at roughly 60% and stock products and other income at 40%; templates contributed around ¥200,000 a month. The leverage is zero inventory and building products during slow periods. Limits: self-reported data, dependence on an existing network, and taxes and personal insurance excluded from expenses.
