Before:

  • Make sure that your appearance the day of the event reflects the photo that you submitted during the interview process (get plenty of rest, come ready to work with a clean and ironed uniform, clean shaven and all around pleasing appearance)

During:

  • Arrive early to the event and check in with event contact if necessary
  • Safe and proper maintenance of equipment and/or vehicles (if applicable)
  • Be fiscally responsible (for example saving money on parking, car pooling with other street team members)
  • You were hired for your award winning personality so be engaging, upbeat, knowledgeable and “on” during the entire event and anytime you are in your uniform.
  • Maintain a clean work environment
  • Provide updates to management as requested
  • Keep ACCURATE track of consumer impressions, inventory and samples distributed
  • Take pictures (remember to get interaction shots with consumers and the brand)

After:

  • Clean up the site (remove display items, pack away, trash in dumpsters)
  • Thank the event contact if available
  • Send the recap, pictures and invoice at specified time
