Know When to Hire Brand Ambassadors
Knowing when and where to put your talent on display is a big part of being successful. Brands can have great brand ambassadors, but if they don’t know when to deploy them they miss the boat on some great opportunities.
What are some ideal situations for using brand ambassadors?
When you’re a smaller business competing with larger companies and brands
This is where you can grab attention for yourself, be it at a tradeshow or a promotion. Everyone is fighting for attention, vying for the most eyes on your brand as possible. If you don’t already have the large brand identity as some of the bigger names, the use of brand ambassadors is key. They can interact, be eye candy and also spread knowledge of your brand through face to face interactions; the type of interactions that make a lasting impression.
In a new city
If you’re on the road, away from your own stomping grounds, brand ambassadors may be a great way to get new eyes on you in a new city. A great staffing agency should have a full roster of talent throughout the country, if not the globe, and will have brand ambassadors ready to put your brand on display. It’s cheaper than all the costs associated with travel and has the added benefit of talent that will be more at home with the new potential brand advocates.
When you need some excitement
It’s a way of thinking differently. Everyone can make a Facebook post or Tweet something super positive from your brand’s account, but is that going to be attention-grabbing enough? Make it fun; hire brand ambassadors that can do an acapella performance in a bar or a dunking tank with an attractive promo model. Anything to spark some life back into your brand.
