AMBASSADORS
WHAT IS A BRAND AMBASSADOR?
A brand ambassador is a person who is hired by a company or organization to represent a brand. These individuals closely represent you with their image and personality. Utilizing brand ambassadors increases awareness, sales, and social engagement.
Brand ambassadors
- Act as the face of your company, products, or services. Their job description entails endorsing and promoting you
- Appeal to your demographic and can influence them to interact with your target audience.
Many people have heard the term brand ambassadors, and probably many people have an idea of what the word means, but I bet if asked what responsibilities are involved with being one, most people do not know. Brand ambassador jobs can be demanding and take more than good looks to be successful. The basic responsibility is to be the familiar face or representative of a company, but beyond that, there is much more to the job description.
WHY SHOULD YOU HIRE BRAND AMBASSADORS?
They represent your brand.
Brand ambassadors may be a full-time employee or only hired for a one-time targeted event. They will increase awareness, reflect your image, generate sales opportunities, and reinforce your image. The event in which you participate will have a built-in consumer base, and your representative will bridge the gap between you and consumers.
They connect
You want to relate to your existing and potential customers in a positive way. One way to do that is for a company to hire someone that can represent them in a way that when consumers see the brand ambassador, they immediately connect the face with the organization. Image and personality are important in making this connection.

WHY ARE BRAND AMBASSADORS IMPORTANT?
Brand ambassadors are important for getting the word out about your company and products which is essential to sales and growth. There are many forms of marketing available to spread the word including advertising, trade shows, promotional events, social media, SEO, public relations, and more.
One thing to notice is that the energy and resources spent on creating and hiring agents can be applied to multiple channels, making it very efficient. Don’t overlook this type of staffing as part of your marketing mix.
There are two types of brand ambassadors, paid and unpaid. Unpaid have tried your product and endorse it to their social networks. Most companies and new products are not in a position to have thousands of loyal customers to say good things about them without any compensation. Paying someone is for companies who require getting the wheels started, so to speak.
If you hire a brand ambassador, you must keep it authentic and find the proper match. Consumers can see the difference between someone just going through the motions and those who truly love and believe in what they are endorsing. Your rep can deliver a message with more credibility than the company who launched the product. Having an individual, or a team of individuals willing to speak on your behalf, is a powerful tool to deliver your message and increase awareness.
TYPES OF BRAND AMBASSADOR JOBS
The term brand ambassador covers a variety of responsibilities and has various names for the different responsibilities. To the average person, all positions may be created equal. There are different skill sets and experience varies among our staff. Our goal is match experience with your objectives.
Brand ambassadors become a personal representation of your brand and interact with customers in the real world. They must be trained and able to articulate your core messaging and are often hired for multiple campaigns.
Street teams are individuals that are not required to have as much product knowledge. They are typically used to hand out free samples at promotional events or college campuses. Consumers do not expect much out of them.
Beverage models are specifically used for beverages. Alcoholic beverages and energy drinks are often associated with beverage models. They will work on getting consumers to try your drink and turn them into customers.
Teams of brand ambassadors are valid for enormous events or crowded areas. It is impressive to see a team of 20 brand ambassadors all dressed in your company colors collecting email addresses at an event like a NASCAR race.
Spokesmodels are sometimes a more targeted form of representation. Sometimes a company will hire a famous person to be the face of their organization. Spokesmodel is also another term for trade show model or promo model.
Social media ambassadors use their large groups of followers on social media to promote you. We have models who will rave about a product, think Kim Kardashian, to their adoring followers and increase exposure to your targeted demographic.
Auto show models and car show girls rep auto manufacturers or companies who make products for automobiles and participate in car shows. They know vehicles and look good talking about them!
Bikini models are typically used at auto shows, or boat shows to add some sex appeal and fun. They are blatantly there to attract attention for their looks and bodies. If your offerings warrants a bikini model, they can be quite useful.
Whatever your product type or industry, we have the brand ambassador or models for hire with the look and experience you demand. Our agents are experienced in engaging consumers and representing you. They are sure to leave potential customers with a positive feeling and lasting impression.
Brand ambassadors do more than communicating with clients or give away samples. Their experience and personality enable them to maintain a high energy and positive attitude during the length of your event. They are accustomed to memorizing product specifications or articulating your core message. Hire brand ambassadors to make your brand memorable and positively impact your business.

LOOKING TO BECOME A BRAND AMBASSADOR?
Brand ambassador job description
When a company begins a marketing campaign they typically will hire someone to represent this product and market it. The brand ambassador job description varies from job to job. These reps work the streets, connecting with consumers and finding consumers to target. They are the backbone of the marketing campaign which means it is their job to know what they are representing inside and out. They must be able to thoroughly explain it to the consumers and answer any and all questions asked. They should know so much that the user would believe the ambassador made the product them self.
Professionalism is crucial as you will be in contact with many people. You are the face of the company, and you are required to be on your A-game when you are on the job acting as BA. You will be attending different events when it comes to promotions. Some jobs will require you to be dressed in a more formal attire while other jobs are more relaxed in their attire requirements. The dress code will match the event typically. No matter what type of event you are scheduled to attend or what attire you are in, professionalism is the key to your job.
The types of places you will go, and the kinds of events you will attend are as variable as the products you will represent. You’re obliged to be prepared for anything as this is not a desk job. Nor are the hours a nine-to-five banker’s hours. You may work 10 hours a day and then be expected to help break down and put away equipment from an event that keeps you onsite for another four hours. Being a brand ambassador is not a job for someone who tires quickly or expects the same predictable work hours every day.
HOW DO I BECOME A BRAND AMBASSADOR?
To become a brand ambassador, you will be required to fill out an application with an agency and possess certain skills.
How to become a brand ambassador
- Posess excellent verbal skills – Being able to communicate to the public and potential customers requires excellent verbal skills. You must be able to speak the proper vocabulary and be able to communicate clearly to everyone you talk to; explain who the company is, account for the product and how it will benefit them. Without good verbal skills, you cannot convey the proper message, and this causes a loss of interest in the product and ultimately the loss of sales.
- Have nice photos of yourself – you will be required to upload photos of yourself. Photos don’t have to be taken by a professional, but that does help. Many photographers are willing to work a trade, saving you money. Avoid cell phone selfies and make sure you have good lighting if you a friend takes your photos. The best thing to do is look at the types of images other models have posted and provide the same.
- Have patience – Because businesses demand brand ambassadors, the pay is good and there are flexible hours and fun jobs, so many girls and guys are looking for them. Staffing agencies can get hundreds of applications a week. You should be patient and wait for opportunities to apply for a position or until the agency reaches out to you. Take a look at the top staffing sites to see if you live in an area with a lot of events and make sure to review other models profiles.
