More than ever, event staffing agencies and brands look to Instagram in search of brand ambassadors. If you are a brand ambassador (or strive to be one) and use Instagram for personal use, then setting up a separate Instagram profile tailored to your life as a brand ambassador is a great idea! You can share your experiences, tips, skills, and other shareworthy content to become an influencer in this space.

- Take in-action photos from your vantage point. For example, your arm extended out handing someone a sample. Of course, set this up in advance with the consumer or another brand ambassador.
Of course with all of these ideas, respect the brands and agencies you are representing. Take photos before you are on the clock or afterward. Some companies don’t allow photos at all so be mindful of what’s allowed and what isn’t.
