Are you an avid Out There listener?
Do you take pleasure in going outside, reflecting on life, and sharing your stories on social media? Do you bring an underrepresented perspective to the outdoor community?
(“Underrepresented” can refer to ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, geography, etc. Simply put, it's any voice that you feel needs more representation in the outdoor community).
If this sounds like you, we want you to apply to be one of our ambassadors!
We’re looking for a few listeners to become official ambassadors for the show.
You'll join our current ambassadors @nonbinarynomads and @adventurelikeagirl in showcasing and promoting the podcast, posting about the outdoors and bigger life questions, and engaging listeners in new and creative ways.
The goal of the ambassador program is to broaden our listenership, foster a sense of community amongst our audience, and spark vibrant discussions within that community. Don’t worry, we’ll guide you and be clear about how we want this to happen. We want you because of your voice, your enthusiasm and your ability to reach new listeners.
What’s it like?
We asked our current ambassadors to weigh in on their experiences; here’s what they had to say…
We’re looking for ambassadors who can commit to:
sharing Out There-related content on social media and/or other outlets (eg. blogs) at least once a week
engaging in periodic in-person outreach activities
attending monthly team meetings (via video chat)
You don’t have to be a known quantity or already a recognized ambassador. You don’t have to be a sponsored athlete. Out There strives to be a welcoming place for individuals of all stripes, and we're looking for ambassadors with a wide array of voices, backgrounds, experiences and ideas.
Please note, this is a volunteer opportunity but also a way to advance your online presence, hone your communications skills and build an online portfolio. We also have swag for you!
Preference will be given to candidates with at least 1,000 followers on social media.
APPLICATIONS ARE DUE MAY 30, 2019.
