Tigris Personnel teamed up with luxury event management company, Candice & Alison, to staff a team of Oprah’s quality brand ambassadors for her Life Class Tour on Apr. 16.

We booked a team of 6 events staff for a 5-9am shift (yes, that’s a 4:45am call time!), 6 for an afternoon 2-6pm shift and of course, event management, to make sure everything was executed flawlessly.
While onsite, the team were required to engage the 9,000 people in line, offer to take their photo as a momento of the exciting event and give them some information on OWN.

The brand ambassadors were asked to be warm and welcoming – as if guest was being greeted by Oprah herself! It was all about the experience!

The team of brand ambassadors distributed more than 15,000 flyers during the two shifts and took at least 1,000 photos for enthusiastic guests.

As was to be expected, the day was crazy but it was a once in a lifetime experience for many of the show attendees and a tremendous opportunity for Tigris Personnel.
