Depending how old they are, at about 5 to 6 weeks you can start to tape them up. First, trim all the hair off the tips of the ears. Weight of the hair some times doesn't allow the ears to go up. Next tape them up. Wrap the tape around their ears so they are in a stand up positition. Leave up couple of days, take down, if they don't stay up, do it again. Don't worry, you will get better at this with time. This should work. Wish I'd know about this 9 years ago, when I got my first pup.
