Minamikyushu City LINE Official Account Surpasses 50,000 Registrations!

The LINE Official Account operated by Minamikyushu City, Kagoshima Prefecture, has now exceeded 50,000 friends.

This account is operated with the aim of "real-time information dissemination" and "providing information tailored to individual needs," distributing information on disaster prevention, city administration, events, childcare support, and tourism.

Its effectiveness in rapidly disseminating information during disasters and its use as part of city promotion have been particularly recognized, leading to its use not only by residents but also by people outside the city.

The surpassing of 50,000 registrations, which exceeds Minamikyushu City's population (approximately 164% of the population), indicates its widespread use as a municipal official LINE account attracting significant interest from both within and outside the city.

Future Developments

Minamikyushu City has been operating its LINE Official Account with the goal of "communicating information effectively," striving to "deliver necessary information to the right people quickly."

Although there were initial challenges with slow growth in friend registrations, we have steadily increased our registered users through trial and error, including reviewing our distribution methods, expanding our content, and improving our rich menus.

Furthermore, the number of registrations significantly increased due to the introduction of Minamikyushu City's unique LINE coupon, "Mina-kore Coupon," and we are currently monitoring data to suppress block rates and optimize distribution content.

Going forward, we will enhance its role not just as an information dissemination tool, but as a "digital platform connecting registered friends and the region."

"Mina-kore Coupon" is scheduled to be implemented again this year!

What is Mina-kore Coupon? It is a unique LINE coupon for Minamikyushu City that can be used at participating businesses within the city. (Mina-kore is an abbreviation for Minamikyushu City Specialty Product Collection, and also incorporates the meaning of the city's catchphrase "Mina, Miryoku!")

For details, please visit the city's website.
