Description And Requirements

Costco Roadshow

Brand Ambassador

Premium Retail Services

Acosta Group

Want a job where you talk to people all day, never sit at a desk, and know by lunchtime whether you're winning?

A Costco roadshow is a pop-up product event inside the warehouse. You build the display, demo the product, and sell it. A show runs about ten days. Then you do it again somewhere new. Between shows you get downtime — great if you want variety instead of a nine-to-five.

What a Roadshow Looks Like

• Thursday — setup. Productarrives on pallets. You build the display, stage inventory, and photograph the finished setup. This day is physical.
• Friday through Sunday — the heavy days. Warehouse traffic peaks and the show's number gets made. This is why weekend availabilityisn'tnegotiable.
• Weekdays — steadier. Fewer members, longer conversations.
• Final Sunday — teardown. Break down the display, pack outproduct, and leave the space clean. Thenthere'sa gap before your next show.

What you'll be doing

• Set the stage. Build an eye-catching display inside the warehouse that makes members stop and look.
• Be the star. Greet members with real energy and show the productlikea pro.
• Show and tell. Demonstrate the features and benefits in a way that gets people genuinely excited.
• Close the sale. Every show carries a sales goal. You'llknow the number, and beating it is the whole game.
• Stay connected. Log sales and activity in our app. Five minutes a day, andit'show we prove your show's value.
• Keep it fresh. Restock, tidy, and keep the display looking sharp from open to close.

Why you'll love it

• You Are the show. No script and no register. You decide how to open, how to read the person in front of you, and how to close.
• Costco members are the best crowd in retail. They'rein a good mood, they trust the building, and they came ready to buy something.
• The feedback is instant. By no day you know whether today's pitch is working. Change it, and you'llknow by two.
• You represent brands people want. And you watch your own number climb every single day.

What We Expect

• Youshow up for every scheduled shift, on time. Missed and late shifts land on the people who did show up.
• Youwork weekends. Saturday and Sunday carry the volume.
• Youstand for eight hours on a concrete floor. There are no chairs.
• Youlift and carry product at setup, teardown, and restock throughout the day.
• Youfollow Costco's rules. Warehouse management has final say and we back them every time.
• Youlog units sold, daily notes, and photos at setup and teardown.
• Youwear khaki or black slacks, a black or red polo, a belt, and closed-toe shoes.

What you'll need

• 18or older, with authorization to work in the United States.
• Highschool diploma or equivalent experience.
• Validdriver's license and reliable transportation to the warehouse.
• Asmartphone that supports our apps —you'lluse it daily for scheduling and reporting.
• Openavailability across the run of a show. Most run 7 to 10 consecutive days.
• Weekendavailability. This is a requirement, not a preference.
• Abilityto stand, bend, andlift upto 50lbs, with or without reasonable accommodation. This is an active role.
• Comfortstarting conversations with strangers, with the same energy at hour seven as at hour one.
• Willingnessto complete W-2 onboarding, including any required background check.

Helpful, not required

Selling or product demonstration experience. Bilingual ability is a real advantage in many markets.

• Youneed Saturdays and Sundays off.
• Youwant to sit down during your shift.
• Approachingstrangers drains you rather than energizes you.

• YourRegional Manager reaches out within one business day to introduce themselves and set your schedule.
• You'llget a welcome email with your show details at least five days before your first day.
• Roadshowsmove. Ambassadors who deliver get the first call on the next show in their market.
