Also, you should put into place a little strategy to maximise the time you are spending with the participants, that is why we want to share with you how to create a successful online pop-up store.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember, your pop-up should have an added value to the purchase experience. Use your expertise to create this value so more customers will participate, again and again.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>\/\/What you should keep in mind<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Structure your session:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it is essential to create a structured event, avoid idle times, and guarantee participants\u2019 attention throughout the whole process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There should be an introduction from the Brand Representative; he\/she should divide the session \u00a0as follow:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Introduction:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> first of all, the Brand Representative should introduce him\/herself, in a personal and unique way. Customers love to experience an emotional connection with their brands, so if you take this momentum, you should start the session with the right foot. Further, the Brand Representative should explain the event and what topics he\/she is going to discuss or the purpose of the pop-up. This way the participants have clear what to expect;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Rules of engagement:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it might be the first time that some attendees are participating in an online pop-up, so it is essential to share which rules of engagement they should follow and how they can actively participate;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong>:<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> organised a warm closing where participants can give feedback. If another pop-up is already\u00a0planned, the Brand Ambassador could share a preview invitation, explaining what it will be about. So participants\u00a0will feel special, a trigger to visit again the following pop-up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Support:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> during the live session, consumers might have questions about what you are saying. You might be able to answer them throughout your talk. Otherwise, you can have an assistant, connected to the live session using the name of your brand. For example: Go\u2013PopUp or just<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moderator, so the answer is visible among the other comments.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Technical check:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> despite being a digitalised society, we are experiencing a new way of being connected. Maybe, it is the first time your Brand Representative leads an online event, and for sure the first time it\u2019s done from his\/her house. These are some facts to check:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>WIFI:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> be sure the connection used to go online is stable. You don\u2019t want the session to run slow, or have a distorted sound;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Camera and microphone<\/strong>:<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> try the functionality of these two items before going online and avoid any last minutes problems, just before going &#8220;live&#8221;;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Background:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the background behind the Brand Representative should be plain and clean, not to cause any distraction to the attendees.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Light:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> be sure you are well lid, especially if it is a dark day outside or if you carry out your session during the evening. The solution is to have natural light. Choose a place near a window or where natural light comes in easily. Otherwise use a lamp that reproduces nice lighting.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Background noises:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it\u2019s important to avoid any background noise that can be distracting for the participants. Be sure to close the windows so, no outside noise can be heard. And your phone should be on mute. If you live with other people, be sure they know you are leading a live session.

Involve them in a peer-to-peer experience that can reinforce the feeling of belonging.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Running out of ideas? Ask them what type of pop-up they will be willing to attend!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance:<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> if you are a clothing company, you could reach out to someone who loves to upcycle.
