Dealers continually invest in designers through technology and product knowledge. In today’s dynamic market, designers are being brought into projects earlier than ever, necessitating expanded training that includes soft skills and an internal focus.
The POP into Excellence event aims to enhance the professional development of dealer designers by deepening their self-awareness, improving their ability to collaborate effectively, and broadening their understanding of the industry. In addition to workshops focused on professional growth, the event features sessions led by leading technology providers who will share insights into upcoming software enhancements. These sessions will give designers a first look at tools that will shape the future of their workflow—equipping them to stay ahead of the curve and add even greater value to their teams and clients.
In 2024, we launched the inaugural POP into Excellence event, bringing together over 700 dealer designers and industry leaders. During our 2nd event in 2025, The Design POPÂ included even more access to the dealer designer community through our commitment to the following:
- Affordability – Ensuring that designers can invest in continuous growth, with company support or as an individual.
- Accessibility – With busy schedules in mind, we offer 1-2 sessions per day instead of a full-day format, allowing designers to participate and still keep up with work.
- Comprehensive Development – Dedicating content to personal and professional growth, equipping designers with new skills and perspectives.
- Advanced Technology Training & Awareness – Keeping designers ahead of the curve with cutting-edge tools and insights.Â
