About Us
The Pop-Up Guide was founded in 2021 by Aaron Lander, a serial social entrepreneur. His work in Pop-Ups started as his Master’s thesis, where he combined his work with small businesses, technology, and community development and turned it into a tech company in 2013.
Since then he has worked with 1000s of entrepreneurs across the country, helping them Pop-Up. He takes what he has learned from all these businesses and developed a unique perspective to help other businesses succeed.
Since starting The Pop-Up Guide, he has taught, coached, and consulted with over 1000 entrepreneurs providing courses, workshops and one-on-one support.
Here’s a little about what makes The Pop-Up Guide different:
