Not to forget that it works as a huge marketing campaign, creating attention and broadening our reach.\u00ab<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nils, Kerbholz is popping up in\u00a0Berlin for the second\u00a0time now. Why do you need a pop-up store as an online retailer?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thats right, our first Berlin pop-up store was located in Friedrichshain and now we are testing the waters in Mitte. We think that a\u00a0pop-up shop is the perfect tool to showcase our products and be present as a brand on the retail market. Not to forget, that it works as a huge marketing campaign, creating attention and broadening our reach. Moreover, we can use it as sort of a test run, if we ever decide to open a permanent store, which is a returning idea in our heads.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is it important to be present on the market in a physical store? Your online presence seems very strong.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because people need to be able to touch the product. We want to show our products in person, stretching beyond our online reach. That&#8217;s why we also travel to trade shows and use other offline retailers. The pop-up store is a perfect addition to this retail portfolio, an additional channel, so to speak.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9041\" src=\"http:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_1.jpg\" alt=\"Kerbholz_popup_1\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_1-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9047\" src=\"http:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_2.jpg\" alt=\"Kerbholz_popup_2\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_2-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Will the product range in the pop-up store vary from your online shop?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Definitely. We are about to launch some new product lines for shades and also optical glasses. The pop-up will be the space for our product launch. The new lines will be exclusively available at the pop-up store, before being also sold online.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you anticipating that people will shop your products at the store or rather later return to the online shop to make a purchase?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both. At the store, we can immediately measure, what the turnover is and how successful the pop-up was in terms of hard sales numbers. But then, there is also a slightly more fluid approach for looking at the pop-up&#8217;s success. You cannot underestimate the reach and buzz that a pop-up can create. We believe that, by being on the market with a physical store, we can expand our reach to new customers, who might not make a purchase at the store at first, but will later return to the online store, keeping the brand at the back of their minds or tell a friend. The offline store generates online traffic.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9043\" src=\"http:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_3.jpg\" alt=\"Kerbholz_popup_3\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Kerbholz_popup_3-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"quote\">\u00bbYou cannot underestimate the reach and buzz that a pop-up can create.

Is it all about reaching new customers, testing products or test running your own physical store?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Primarily, we are looking to get in touch with our customers, to get a better sense of what they like and don&#8217;t like. In a store, it is much easier to get honest feedback and a feeling for customer&#8217;s needs. This kind of thing is next to impossible online. Just think of, how often you have ever filled out a feedback form online, apart from the cases where something went terribly wrong. In the pop-up shop we can observe and read customer&#8217;s first reactions, chat to them and learn from those experiences.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/kerbholzfounder_2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9039\" src=\"http:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/kerbholzfounder_2.png\" alt=\"kerbholzfounder_2\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/kerbholzfounder_2.png 1200w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/kerbholzfounder_2-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/magazinetest.atomic4dev.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/kerbholzfounder_2-1024x683.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Moritz<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Matthias<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Adrian<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Nils founded<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/aufdemkerbholz.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kerbholz<\/a>\u00a0in 2012 in their home town Cologne, after being inspired by wood handicrafts\u00a0in Mexico.
