Salesperson for Renaissance Fair (Flutes)

Ocarina Salesperson / Musical Ambassador (Weekends Day work at Renaissance Fair) https://okcastle.com/ Songbird Ocarina is looking for a friendly, music-loving salesperson to join our team. This is not a typical sales job. We don't pressure, pitch, or push. We play, we connect, and we invite people into music. If you enjoy talking to strangers, sharing joy, and making people smile, you'll fit right in. ⸻ About Songbird Ocarina Songbird Ocarina has been crafting high-quality, musician-grade ocarinas since 1989. Our instruments are handcrafted, well-tuned, and inspired by a 12,000-year musical tradition. We are known for being creative, welcoming, playful, and deeply human. We sell at events, festivals, and special venues, and we interact with visitors not as "customers," but as fellow travelers and music lovers. ⸻ What the Job Is Really Like Playing ocarinas and demonstrating them to curious passersby Welcoming people with warmth and humor Helping first-time musicians feel confident trying an instrument Sharing simple explanations (no music theory required) Creating moments where someone thinks, "I want to do that too." You'll often hear things like: "That's the sound I've been looking for." "You played the song of my people." "I didn't know I could make music." By the end of the day, many people feel energized rather than drained. ⸻ Who This Is For You do not need to be a professional musician. This role is great for people who are: Friendly, expressive, and comfortable talking to strangers Curious, playful, and emotionally intelligent Interested in music, storytelling, performance, or teaching Reliable, punctual, and good teammates If someone says, "I'm not musical," we say: They don't require talent — just good taste. ⸻ What You'll Learn How to confidently engage people without pressure How to communicate clearly with non-musicians How to use music as an icebreaker How to grow social confidence and presence How to represent a creative, values-driven company We provide training, support, and materials. You'll also naturally become a better ocarina player just by demonstrating throughout the day. ⸻ The Vibe We take our instruments seriously — not ourselves.
