Don't Miss Big Opportunities!
Add Your Skills & Expertise!

 

I highly recommend that if anyone in this industry wants to be found, they join POP and fill out the skills and expertise section of their POP Profiles. I've had companies and a major media network reach out to me for a show based on my skills and expertise after finding me on POP."
David Yakos, Founder of Streamline Design and Co-Owner of Salient Technologies


Among POP's many features is the most powerful search engine in our industry. Here is one example of how it can work for you: if you are an inventor, list on your profile your skills such as: #design #inventor #professional inventor #industrial design #prototype and more. Marketing and PR pros can list skills such as: #pr #pr agency #product launch #influencers #affiliate marketing #trends #doll launches #brand guidelines #entertainment #licensing. Your profile will 'pop' up when anyone is searching for people or companies with skills and expertise that match yours.

You can add press releases, articles, photos, media, videos and more to your profile and click a box to have them post automatically to the POP feed on the homepage.We keep an eye on the posts and if we find something interesting, we will add to the Bloom Report.

There are loads of other features to explore!
