Did you know that Pop Up Stores are so much more than the seasonal, holiday stores that open in strip malls? These temporary settings that last for a day or several months could be just what you need to sell your products without committing to a long term lease. This workshop will give you an overview of what Pop Up stores are and how they can benefit your business.
