Application for Ambassadors

Thank you for your interest in serving as a Greater Mankato Growth Ambassador! The entire board and staff at Greater Mankato Growth appreciate the time and energy you could bring to our organization and community. This volunteer position provides many opportunities to make connections with other business representatives and we often have more applicants than open spots in the program. Please complete the information below. Openings are filled on an as-needed basis throughout the year and will be reviewed by our leadership committee.

Mission Statement:
The mission of the Greater Mankato Ambassadors is to be the greeting arm of Greater Mankato Growth, Inc. to promote the community and encourage expansion of established businesses and the development of new businesses in Greater Mankato.

Purpose:
Ambassadors assist GMG staff by celebrating business achievements within the community such as but not limited to: new leadership, new business openings, expansions, renovations, groundbreakings, open houses, anniversaries, and new locations.

Ambassador Committments: on average, 2-3 hours per month, within business hours Monday through Friday

I agree to attend at least 75% of all monthly Ambassador meetings (held on the 4th Tuesday of the month at various member restaurants) to share business insights that we’ve gained from our visits and to build new leads for the Ambassador call list. Attendance is expected of all Ambassadors (9 out of 12 months each year).
I will make it a priority to attend Ambassador all-call events throughout the year. These are scheduled at the convenience of businesses to celebrate their milestones, grand openings, expansions, groundbreakings, and ribbon cutting ceremonies.
I agree to attend two (2) business visits each month to welcome new businesses to the area.
