Job Description

Cultured Kombucha Co. is seeking outgoing, dependable Cultured Crew Brand Ambassadors to represent our brand through paid in-store sampling activations at retail locations.

Brand Ambassadors bring Cultured to life in-store by creating an engaging sampling experience, introducing shoppers to our products, sharing key brand and product information, and actively converting samples into purchases. This is an energetic, customer-facing role for someone who genuinely enjoys meeting new people and is comfortable initiating conversations with shoppers.

Ambassadors will set up and maintain a clean, inviting sampling station; offer and pour product samples; educate shoppers about Cultured Kombucha, our flavors, ingredients, and fermentation process; answer basic product questions; and encourage interested shoppers to purchase product during the activation.

Each activation is approximately 4 hours and pays $100 per session. Ambassadors are expected to remain actively engaged throughout the event, with a goal of selling approximately 20+ bottles per activation. Activations are during peak shopping hours on Saturdays and Sundays. 

Ambassadors will also complete simple event reporting, including confirming arrival on-site, providing an approximate bottle count at the end of the activation, and communicating any relevant store or customer feedback to the Brand Ambassador Coordinator.

Cultured provides product training, sampling materials, ongoing support, and opportunities to participate in Crew perks, product drops, competitions, and other brand experiences.

This role is a great fit for students, athletes, wellness enthusiasts, community connectors, and anyone who enjoys people, sales, and representing a growing Michigan consumer brand.

Educational Value

This position provides hands-on experience in consumer marketing, brand representation, retail sales, and customer engagement within a growing consumer packaged goods company.

Brand Ambassadors gain practical experience confidently approaching and engaging consumers, communicating a brand story, educating shoppers about a product, overcoming hesitation, and turning product sampling into measurable retail sales.

Ambassadors also gain exposure to retail execution, consumer behavior, experiential marketing, sales tracking, and brand-building strategy, while receiving product and sales training from the Cultured team.

Job Requirements

Must be 18 years of age or older, dependable, outgoing, and comfortable approaching and starting conversations with people you do not know. Strong interpersonal communication skills and a positive, energetic presence are important.

Must be able to commit to 4-hour in-store activations, typically during peak shopping hours on weekends, and remain actively engaged throughout the full session. Reliable transportation to assigned retail locations is required.

Candidates should be comfortable learning and communicating product information, actively encouraging shoppers to purchase, tracking approximate bottles sold, and completing simple post-event reporting.

Previous experience in retail, sales, hospitality, events, food service, promotions, or customer-facing roles is helpful but not required. Cultured provides training. We value reliability, confidence, initiative, coachability, and genuine enthusiasm for connecting with people.
