EP 1 — Somebody Put Me On: From Working State Fairs to the World Cup 2026

How do you become a paid brand ambassador? In Episode 1 of The B.A.B Podcast Show, Minister Charena DaGreat shares her real origin story, from working state fairs and local promotional events to the World Cup, and how experiential marketing opened the door to an entirely new career. Nobody applies for this life. Somebody puts you on. One conversation. One person who vouched. One opportunity you didn't even know existed. That's how the door opened. But how do you turn one opportunity into a career? And why do so many people never discover this industry in the first place? 🎙️ IN THIS EPISODE - How one conversation at a live event led to paid brand ambassador work - What experiential marketing is and why most people don't know the industry exists - Why relationships, referrals, and access create opportunities - From local events and state fairs to a global sports stage - The app that helped change everything (full reveal in Episode 8) - Why getting put on is only the beginning 🔑 THE B.A.B KEYWORD HUNT STARTS HERE: Three episodes.
