433. The building-sized balloon install that took over a whole town
What if a random idea at a balloon class turned into a full building-sized install that had an entire town stopping traffic to take photos? That's exactly what happened for Jodie of Pop by Posh Party Designs and Event Space. She pulled off a massive collaborative flamingo install in Leominster, Massachusetts, with 14 other balloon pros.
Not only that, but she also scored two brand sponsorships, a free crane, donated meals and front-page press coverage. And in this episode, we hear all about it! It’s another great example of how local "competitors" can become your closest balloon besties, and what can actually happen when you're brave enough to ask.

Hi, I'm Jodie, the owner of Pop by Posh Party Designs. I'm a proud mom of four girls and was born and raised in Boston. My career has taken me on quite a journey—from owning a nail salon for 10 years to spending the last 21 years as a letter carrier. Creativity has always been a part of who I am, and starting Pop by Posh gave me the opportunity to turn that passion into a business. Today, I specialize in luxury balloon décor, event styling, and creating beautiful spaces where people can celebrate life's biggest moments. I love helping bring my clients' visions to life and proving that it's never too late to follow your passion.
