You may want to find a temporary gig as a brand ambassador or you might be looking for a full time engagement.

If you are looking to be the traditional kind of brand ambassador that goes to events and promotes products at the event, these are going to be temporary gigs.  However, you can keep these coming by getting into the brand ambassador database of all the different brand ambassador agencies and you will get steady offers as they need talented ambassadors to attend events for client projects.

This is probably the most fun form of being a Brand Ambassador, but also sharpening your skills as a social media expert and Internet Marketing specialist can give you a more steady income and something to do between gigs at events.

You may find that people outsource the Internet Marketing and Social Media to lower cost people overseas, but do not let this discourage you.  The fact is, if you have the skills, these companies need someone to oversee the outsourced workers and focus the brand message.  So this can be a great opportunity for you.

In order to attract more job requests, reach out to marketing agencies and do jobs through CraigsList until you get yourself into a lot of brand ambassador databases so that the job offers start coming to you.

This can be much more lucrative than just trying to be a general Brand Ambassador.  The reason is that a good Brand Ambassador is going to network and know the major players in the industry they are working for.  If you continue to focus on one industry and develop your skills around that industry, you are going to find that you have companies in the industry competing to hire you as their Brand Ambassador eventually.

Case in point, I have a friend that is a great sales person in one particular niche industry in manufacturing.  It is nothing flashy, but he commands a very high salary, plus big commissions, plus a car and other perks because he knows everyone in the industry.  I saw him try to move temporarily to another industry and he was not nearly as effective.  He is great in his focused area.

So if you want to get a job as a Brand Ambassador and there is an Industry you really love or already know well, consider focusing and you will be paid better and have more opportunities.

This means you need to see things from their perspective.  They do not really care that you enjoy going around and talking to your friends or that you like FaceBook.

Event Planner is another gateway to getting a Brand Ambassador job.  If you learn how to set up events, get people to attend and promote the brand in a positive fashion at the event, you will be building your network and skill set to eventually be a full Brand Ambassador.

Internet Marketing, including SEO and Email Marketing, are other skills that a Brand Ambassador should know.  These things are always changing and it takes years to master, so building your skills as an Internet Marketer will make you a very skilled Brand Ambassador some day.

Writing and video production are other skills that can be a gateway to getting a Brand Ambassador job.  Blog writing, copy writing and video are all important skills because the primary job of a Brand Ambassador is frequent, effective communications.
