What we do
Six ways we make a toy
Six ways we make a toy
business easier to run.
Every engagement produces something you can use the same week — a document, a data set, a dashboard, or a decision.
E-commerce Strategy
Marketplace selection, listing architecture, pricing structure, and range planning across your own store and third-party channels.
Product Content & Data
Listing copy, enhanced content, and clean structured product data — organised once, then published consistently to every channel you sell on.
Brand & Licensing Advisory
Positioning work, licence evaluation, and partner shortlists — each with the commercial case written out, so the decision is defensible.
Compliance Documentation
Advisory on the labelling and paperwork your target markets expect, plus a review of the documentation you already hold. Guidance only — testing stays with your accredited lab.
Analytics & Reporting
KPI frameworks, dashboards, and monthly performance reviews — so trading conversations rest on numbers instead of instinct.
How we work
Four stages, start to review.
Engagements run as fixed-scope projects or a monthly retainer. Either way you know the deliverable and the date before we begin.
01
Discovery
A structured look at your category, channels, and current performance — plus whatever data you already have.
02
Plan
A written strategy with priorities, owners, and a realistic sequence, sized to the team you actually have.
03
Build
We produce what the plan calls for: the research, the content, the product data, the reporting setup.
04
Review
Measurement against the KPIs we agreed, and honest course correction when the numbers say something different.
Who we work with
Toy & game brands
Licensors and IP owners
Distributors
Marketplace sellers
Retail buying teams
Early-stage play startups
About us
A small team that knows this category.
The Toy Company Limited has operated from Hong Kong since December 2014. We work with toy, game, and play businesses that need sharper commercial thinking online — whether that is entering a new marketplace, fixing product data that has drifted, or simply understanding why a category stopped growing.
We are deliberately small. The person who scopes your project is the person who does the work, so nothing is lost in a handover and you always know who to call.
Hong Kong time (GMT+8) puts us in the same working day as Asian suppliers and ahead of European and American teams — useful when a question needs answering before your morning starts.
