This event was successful in promoting our new school-spirited items.
We learned that for future U-Hour events, the Pop Up needs to have advertisement on main campus to generate more sales.

Which finally arrived the beginning of week 10.
Basketball Pre-Game
This was the first time our store was at a school sports event.

Recommendations for Next Quarter
Don’t procrastinate. Communication is key, not only with your team members
but also with Professor Tucker, Patty Mutz and the Wearhouse.
Order merchandise in a timely manner. Don’t wait a week or two before a Pop Up event.
Make sure to bring proper supplies to each event. Order Cal Poly Pomona clothing for kids. Specially for the
Horse Show and Pumpkin Festival. Start doing more events on the main campus. Always have a credit card machine at each event. Most
people don’t carry cash anymore. Promote on main campus of when and where the next
Pop Up will be.
THANK YOU & Good Bye Until Next Time
