Is a Dynamic Designs Online
“Pop-up Store” right for you?
-
A pop-up store is an on-line store, hosted by Dynamic Designs for an approximately time frame of 2-3 weeks. We handle all of the administrative services on the pop-up store.
We also handle all of the marketing for the store. As long as you give us a list of your employees with emails we can send out notifications to your employees of when the store opens and closes.
You can either have a PO store, where you are invoiced on bill, and take care of collecting or billing your employees, or we can make it a Credit Card Store where anyone that purchases, uses a credit card, voucher or coupon.
If there are issues with inventory or back-orders we will reach out to the individual so you don’t have to.
Any fees associated with the store are calculated into the price of the products.
Finally, a pop-up online store is a template - so there are limitations within the design and user interface. Generally speaking these stores, are simple to navigate, and easy to understand. You can order from your phone, laptop or ipad - any device too.

No, you can get started with an online store after a discovery/demo meeting with Dynamic Tammy or any Dynamic Designs represented. The cost is at no-charge up to 15 product items. (Note that anything with a different item number is considered a different product). Going above the recommended 15 products will cost an additional amount of $35 per product.
-
With our basic online store, you can have between 10-15 items, and up to 3 colors per item. We’ve found that helps you, and your customer to make the store simple with the least amount of choices possible. This gives you the opportunity to change out items and run the pop-up store later in the year.
-
We have found that what works best for businesses and organizations is the Pop-up store option, which is online for 2-3 weeks. You can keep the stores up longer, however, 2 weeks works great.
-
Yes, you can go over the basic online store plan, however, there is an additional cost per product that you add to the final invoice. The cost is an additional $35 per product ID #.
-
Yes, and it is highly recommended to give your employees a gift certificate/voucher or coupon. Most employees will not purchase their own branded merchandise, however, if given a voucher, they actually use the voucher, and purchase more. Remember, your logo is advertising, and you are investing in your company by providing vouchers or gift certificates for your employees.
-
It’s not necessarily the number of employees you have, it’s actually the number of product sales in the end.
When we have our discovery meeting, we estimate the sales based on the employees ordering, and what investment the business is going to make (Let’s say the business is buying everyone a t-shirt that cost $20, or they are giving each new employee a $100 on-boarding voucher). We also determine if we are basing the price on per piece pricing, 12, 24, 48, or 96 piece pricing. In addition, embroidery, digital transfer film or screen print decorating options will help determine product pricing.
The goal is $1500 minimum sales when you are doing an online store. Here’s a great example, let’s say you have have 15 employees, and you give them a $50 voucher, plus they spend another $50 dollars in apparel. In addition, you order extra items that cost an additional $250. Typically, as long as sales are over $1500, the cost of merchandise is a reasonable cost to the employee, and the cost savings for the business or organization administrative services far outweighs any of the store fees that are added on to each product.
With online stores, Dynamic Designs handles the administrative part. No need to contact the employees. No need to set up excel sheets. No need for ordering the wrong item. Everything is calculated within the store. Every employee receives a packing slip. And in addition, we can provide the business with an account to log-into the system to see which employees have order and which ones have not.

This is the best part of a Dynamic Designs Online Store. We want it to work for you, and if you’re within our service area (approximately 40-50 mile radius) the answer is YES on sample sizing.
We can determine a time frame that we will have merchandise available for employees to try on to make sure it fits at your location prior to the store ending. Typically, standard t-shirts and sweatshirts this does not apply. Depending upon the apparel that you are having in your store (we don’t bring every size in), would depend on what sizes we get in, but it definitely is a win-win situation for everyone ordering from the store.
Sample sizes are available, however note that this is within reason, and if you need more than what we are going to offer you, additional charges will apply for samples. This is determined on a case by case store.
-
Depending upon your needs would depend on the store option. Pop-up stores work for most small, medium and even large sizes companies or organizations. However, as an example you have a huge company, and you want every employee to have a login, this would be an example of a different store that we offer. A customizable store is available, however, in addition to the costs woven into the price of the product, there would be a minimum hosting annual fee for the store for $2000. A customizable store can be left up all year long, and you have more options within the store as well.
-
In most cases, getting the products one location or facility is at no additional charge to the customer. If there are several locations to deliver the products to, there may be an additional fee for each location - this is a fee to be determined.
If an option for shipping is to have Dynamic Designs USPS mail it to the customers residence, the fee may be a flat fee depending upon the number of products ordered.
Shipping options will be determined in the discovery meeting, and calculated into the store so the customer can choose an option.
Remember, keeping these options as simple as possible is the key. All orders are individually packaged with the customers name and products are on the packaging slip, so it’s each

Absolutely, a Dynamic Designs Pop-up Store works great for fundraising. With our stores, non-profits or a company store that want to have a certain percentage or a $ dollar amount of sales go towards a fundraising goal can make this happen, and you can track it, and/or make it visible to everyone the visits the online store. Make sure you mention in your discovery meeting that you might want to donate some of the sales to a non-profit or specific goal.

If you are looking to save time within your company, especially with human resources or your marketing department, an online store is exactly what you need. We do all of the administrative work. Initially, we work with you to determine the products that will work for your store, and we help you with all of the details of the store. We design the store, and provide you an online “proofing” link so that you view the store before it goes live.
We coordinate the start and end dates of the store with you. We take care of sending vouchers out to your employees. We send reminders, and we call your employees if we have any questions, and they have the option to call us with any questions. So, you, the “middle man” doesn’t even exist.
Working with Dynamic Designs will be simple, and easy - and it will save you money and time, and that is the bottom line. Allowing your employees to do the things that they do best.
