Artikore runs end-to-end pop-ups and test markets to validate demand, pricing, and positioning before scale.

It selects sites and windows, secures permits and insurance, designs the layout and merchandising, and manages build-out, staffing, and training. POS and inventory systems are set up with clear SKU/lot tracking, sampling and demos are scripted, and VoC is captured through intercept surveys, QR flows, and post-purchase follow-ups.

Media and creator activations are scheduled to drive qualified footfall, while offer tests and attribution tags tie traffic to sales. Daily dashboards track traffic, conversion, AOV, and repeat intent, and findings roll into a go/no-go and scale plan by city/channel.

Deliverables

  • Site & window plan: target neighborhoods, venue shortlist, rent/footfall comps, and booking calendar

  • Store kit & layout: floor plan, fixtures, visual merchandising, sampling/demo stations, and BOH flow

  • Compliance pack: permits, insurance, health & safety checklist, and vendor/venue agreements

  • Staffing & training: role maps, scripts, service standards, and incentive plan

  • POS & inventory setup: SKU catalog, taxes, discounts, payment methods, and real-time stock rules

  • VoC toolkit: intercept survey guide, QR/landing pages, NPS/CSAT forms, and consent language

  • Media & creator plan: geo-targeted ads, seeding list, event programming, and content calendar

  • Offer test matrix: price points, bundles, GWPs, and redemption mechanics

  • Ops playbook: opening/closing checklists, incident log, cash/variance control, and T&A calendar

  • Performance read-out: dashboards, cohort tables, heat maps, and a recommendations memo

KPIs We Drive

  • Footfall & qualified traffic (event days vs. baseline)

  • Conversion rate & AOV (by day, offer, and cohort)

  • Unit economics (contribution per pop-up day; payback)

  • Repeat intent & capture rate (email/SMS opt-ins, survey NPS/CSAT)

  • Attribution lift (creator/media to in-store and DTC)

  • Offer performance (price/bundle/GWP uplift vs. control)

  • Operational compliance (checklist pass rate, incident count)

  • Post-pilot outcomes (cities/channels recommended, scale plan with budget and timeline)
