Promotional Models in Chicago

Request promotional talent for product launches, retail activations, convention booths, sampling programs or mobile-tour stops. Send the format, activity location and responsibilities so we can assess the staffing scope and availability.

TSM recruits local Chicago talent. Check availability and relevant assignment experience during profile selection, and confirm any travel-related charges in the quote. Local recruitment does not guarantee that every candidate knows your particular site.

Yes, when those duties are part of the booking and the selected person has the required preparation. Provide handling instructions, demonstration steps and the lead-capture workflow. Confirm platform or equipment experience rather than assuming it from the role title.

Agree on attendance reporting and escalation procedures with your account executive. If an absence occurs, contact them to review available replacement options. Do not assume a dedicated standby or immediate replacement unless it is expressly part of the booking.

TSM's published typical staffing range is $50–$85 per hour, with a four-hour minimum. Role, skills, dates, hours and program requirements determine your quote. Confirm what preparation and charges are included, and ask your account executive for the response timeline.

TSM is a woman-owned agency founded in 2005. Our documented general liability coverage is $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate. Request a certificate of insurance and send your organizer's requirements so the documentation can be checked for the booking.

Their assignment may include inviting participation, explaining approved product points, distributing samples, assisting a demonstration and directing the participant's next step. Set the footprint, handling procedures and reporting requirements before the event.

Send the location, dates, daily hours, requested headcount, wardrobe and role requirements. Describe the product and intended participant interaction. Review profiles, confirm the booking and provide the activity permissions and brand brief.

The terms can overlap, but experience should be checked for the actual role. A good profile for sampling may not establish presentation, language or technical demonstration skills. Review comparable assignments and agree on the preparation your product needs.

Request promotional talent for your convention, retail site, hotel venue or approved outdoor activation in the Chicago area. Include the location and operating requirements. Talent availability and suitability are confirmed for the specific program.

Only plan those duties after you have confirmed permission for the activity and location with the relevant organizer, venue or site operator. Staffing availability is separate from approval to distribute products or approach visitors in a particular area.

Give them an escalation contact and approved response in the brief. They should avoid improvising health, performance, pricing or technical claims and connect the participant with your authorized product representative.

A promotional assignment focuses on the product interaction: a trial, sample, demonstration or participant next step. If your program also needs registration, booth coverage or several coordinated roles, tell your account executive about the full staffing plan. Confirm each role and its preparation rather than assuming one promotional booking covers the whole event.

Yes. Send the location, dates, duties, daily shifts and decision deadline so your account executive can review current options. Availability depends on the actual assignment. Confirm selected profiles, preparation and booking terms before relying on coverage; a last-minute request does not guarantee suitable staff.

Provide the approved product claims, eligibility rules, handling instructions and demonstration sequence. Define the participant's next step and the questions your own representative should handle. Review the selected person's equipment or platform experience, then confirm the product briefing and site instructions before the assignment.

Scope the activity stations and engagement duties alongside stock replenishment, storage, waste collection and breaks. Identify who handles product or participant issues. For outdoor assignments, include the weather plan and suitable wardrobe; for a mobile tour, list each stop and transfer window so the schedule reflects the full assignment.

Send the exact address, meeting point, reporting time and site contact. At McCormick Place, include the building, hall and booth. For Navy Pier or a retail assignment, provide the operator's access and receiving instructions. Do not assume a public opening time or visitor entrance is the staff check-in plan.
