About the Role
We need a crew of brand ambassadors to run our booth at the Minnesota State Fair. You aren't just ringing up shirts; you're a crowd-gatherer, a hype-person, and a closer. If you can strike up a conversation with a stranger, make them laugh, and seamlessly upsell them on matching apparel, we want you.
Responsibilities
- Selling: Hooking in foot traffic, pitching our gear, and closing sales like a champion
- Entertaining: Engaging customers with a smile, a joke, and a positive attitude
- Booth Management: Handling setup, teardown, and keeping the merchandise looking sharp and restocked throughout the chaos of the event
- Representing: Acting as the ultimate hype-person for the Shinesty brand in the wild
Schedule
- Dates: Wednesday, Aug 26 – Monday, Sept 8 (14 days — it's one of the biggest fairs in the country and it does not stop!)
- Hours: Booth hours 9 AM – 9 PM daily — with setup and teardown
- We're building a rotating shift schedule — tell us your availability across the run
Qualifications
- A Natural Seller: You have retail, event, or direct sales experience and a quantifiable track record of crushing goals
- Incredibly Likable: You are extroverted, get energy from crowds, and don't take yourself too seriously
- A Hustler: You are willing to stand on your feet, handle the elements, and grind out long weekend hours for the love of the sale (and the commission)
- Reliable: You show up on time, communicate clearly, and take ownership of your booth
Compensation
- This is a 1099 Contractor role (no employee benefits)
- $20/hour + 5% commission on your sales
- Pay is heavily tied to your hustle — the better you sell, the better you do
