Description
We are putting together a team to staff the DTE Home Protection Plus booth at Whitecaps games again this summer. The responsibility of the street team members will be to create authentic interactions with visitors and engage with guests on a fun and genuine level, while also answering some questions about the appliance repair programs.

- Street team members will be paid $15/hour
- Requires a (paid) hour of training ahead of the event
- Parking at the event included
- Participants will receive a gift card to get food and drink in each game they work.
Value of participating:

Increase Home Protection Plus’ brand awareness in West Michigan by providing information about the plans, handing out branded swag, and interacting with Grand Rapids residents on an authentic and fun level.
