Question 1

Is this different from event staffing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Event staffing is one-off shift coverage. Brand ambassador management is a continuous program: same crew across multi-quarter activation, with retention scoring, certifications tracked, and your brand's playbook embedded into the platform.

Question 2

How big is your ambassador bench?

Accepted Answer

257,000+ vetted ambassadors across all 50 states. Major-metro depth is sufficient for back-up coverage; we add tier-2 / tier-3 market depth on a per-program basis as the program scales.

Question 3

What if a BA no-shows?

Accepted Answer

Backup coverage SOP per shift. Captain on-call. No-call no-show recovery built into the program — we restock the shift, not the next program.

Question 4

Can you handle 1099 administration?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pay rates, ambassador reimbursements, 1099 administration. Your finance team sees one invoice per program.

Question 5

How quickly can you scale up an ambassador program?

Accepted Answer

We scale single-market and multi-market national programs through recruit, vetting, and brief.

Question 6

Do you manage continuity across multiple programs we run?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Same captain rotation, same ambassador continuity, same retention pool — across sampling, retail demos, festival activations, trade shows. One managed program, multiple use cases.

A managed bench. Not a marketplace.

Managed, not transactional.
