Factory & Brand Visitor Center Guide

Also called: Factory Tour Guide, Brand Experience Guide

Leads visitors through a company's factory or visitor center, like an ice cream plant, car factory or brewery, telling the brand's story.

A day in the life

Your first tour group at 9 a.m. is a busload of retirees, and the next is 40 fourth-graders. You walk them along the catwalk above the production line, explain how the product is made, tell the company's founding story and hand out samples at the end. You answer the same questions with fresh energy every hour.
