Ambassador requirements

• Post once per month on your IG or Tik Tok feed tagging @Vital_Apparel
• Tag us once per month in your IG story
• Add your code or custom link to your social media bios or link tree.
• You are NOT required to make monthly orders or order every drop. We only require to you to own at least 1 piece of Vital apparel to ensure you like our apparel and have something to promote. 
• How to be re-shared to our instagram story! We will re-share ambassadors who tag us in their instagram story to our own instagram story 1-2 days per week. YOU MUST: Share a photo or video of yourself tagging us and must be visibly wearing a piece of Vital apparel (it's okay if the logo isn't showing). Unfortunately it is too complicated to go through and re-share ambassadors previous posts/reels so we will only re-share the people who tag us in their story the current day we are re-sharing people. We will not re-share you if your face or body is covered by emojis, text, or if there are offensive words, comments, or songs in your story. Please place any text or your referral code on the bottom or top corner of your story so people can see you in your Vital Apparel. This helps increase the chances of people using your code to place an order because they can see how the clothing looks and fits on you. We want to show off our amazing ambassadors to the public and help grow your following! We rotate days we share to our instagram story to maximize views & reach due to instagrams complicated algorithm. There will be periods where we will not post or share anything to our instagram story.
• SOCIAL MEDIA BREAKS: Being an activewear brand who promotes mental health, we want to ensure you are prioritizing your own! If you think you need to take some time off from posting/being on social media please send us an email letting us know you need a month or 2 break from social media to prioritize your mental health. We completely understand that social media can be a distraction and sometimes negatively impact mental health and we strongly suggest taking time away if necessary!

Tips for success!

• Talk about our mission and what we're all about!
• Made a quick story video showing off your apparel and why you recommend it to your followers!
• Share your code with your friends & rave about your apparel! Just posting a photo and tagging us isn't going to get someone to purchase with your code! Be creative!
• Talk to people at your local gym and tell them why you decided to work with us, why you love our clothing, and recommend them to try Vital and use your code if they decide to order!

Become a brand athlete!

• All ambassadors have the opportunity to become a brand athlete!
• It isn't easy, but all of our athletes started out as ambassadors!
• To become a brand athlete you must generate 10 sales with your code in a 30 day period!
• Brand athletes receive gift cards for clothing every single month if they generate 10 or more sales in a month!
• They also have the opportunity to work with us at events and potentially participate in photoshoots!

Commission pay!

Your referral code gives customers 15% off their order and you'll earn 10% commission from that order.
You will be paid commission for each referral order 30 days after the order was placed to ensure the customer does not return the order. We send all ambassador commission payouts between the 1st-3rd and 15th-17th of each month. For example, if someone placed an order with your code on February 10th you would receive your commission payment for that referral order on March 15th (at least 30 days after the order was made on the next payout date). 

You will be sent any commissions due to the payment method you chose when you originally filled out the ambassador application (Paypal or Venmo). Please ensure your payment method works. You will receive an email to the email address linked to your ambassador account from us notifying that we sent you a commission payout. If you think you did not receive the commission payoutplease email us info@vtlapparel.com and include your Paypal email/username or Venmo Handle so we can check on it's status and make sure you receive it!

Leveling up! 

• Level 2 Ambassador: You need 5 referral orders (a customer who uses your referral code on their order) in a 30 day period. Your 30 day period starts when your first referral order is made. You will be moved up to Level 2 ambassador after all of the referral orders have passed the 30 day period. A manager will reach out via email and let you know that you have leveled up.
• Level 2 Ambassador: Receive a personal 30% discount code for all future orders! To maintain level 2 status you will need at least 15 referral orders every 3 months. If this quota is not met you will be moved down to level 1 ambassador. 
• Brand Athlete:You need 10 referral orders (a customer who uses your referral code on their order) in a 30 day period. Your 30 day period starts when your first referral order is made. You will be moved up to a brand athlete after all of the referral orders have passed the 30 day period. A manager will reach out via email and let you know that you have leveled up to a brand athlete. 
• Brand Athlete: Receive a $100 gift card for every 10 referral sales made and all of the same perks as level 2 ambassadors. To maintain Brand Athlete status you will need at least 30 referral orders every 3 months. If this quota is not met you will move back down to a level 2 ambassador but still have the ability to move back up to an athlete. 

Referral order/code use RULES!

• You will NOT receive commission using your own referral code & it does NOT count towards leveling up. 
• If a customer who ordered using your referral code returns the order for a refund it will NOT count as a referral order and there will be no commission paid for that returned order. If the customer exchanges the order used with your referral code it will still count towards leveling up and you will receive the 10% commission for it. 
• If the same customer (same name or same email or same address) places multiple orders the same day using your referral code you will still receive commission for all of their orders that day but their multiple orders placed the same day will only count as one sale towards leveling up to Level 2 Ambassador or Athlete. Unfortunately there has been cases in the past of ambassadors trying to “hack” the program by having the same friend or family member order multiple times the same day to help them level up. A manager reviews all referral orders on the 1st and 15th each month (payout days) to ensure these rules are being followed to make it fair for all ambassadors and athletes.
