How We Run Every Costco Roadshow Demo

Every Eleven8 Costco roadshow follows our proven 11-step event process — refined from thousands of in-warehouse demos and purpose-built for the high-volume, high-turnover pace of Costco member traffic.

From the moment your team is booked, a dedicated account manager oversees your entire roadshow with offsite operations management included at no additional cost. Pre-demo briefings run through separate client and team channels so every demo rep is aligned on product messaging, sampling protocol, and sales goals before doors open.

On demo day, staff clock in via geo-located check-in 15 minutes early, walk the demo area and surrounding floor, and are set up at stations 30 minutes before members arrive. A dedicated group chat keeps your team connected in real time for instant resolution of any on-the-ground issues across single or multi-location roadshow runs.

1 backup per 8 staff members — included at no additional cost

Geo-located clock in & out — real-time confirmation your demo team is on site at every Costco location

Dedicated account manager & on-site supervisors — every demo day, every warehouse location

Post-demo recap & staff feedback reports — so you know exactly how your roadshow performed and what drove sales

Costco Roadshow Staffing Questions

                How does the selection process work for Costco roadshow demo staff?
                +
            
                We provide detailed profiles of our Costco-experienced demo staff, including their product category backgrounds and roadshow track records. We match each rep to your specific product — whether it's food and beverage, health and beauty, cookware, supplements, or consumer electronics — so the person behind your demo table already understands the selling environment before day one.
            
                What backup plans are in place if a demo rep doesn't show?
                +
            
                Every Costco roadshow includes one pre-briefed backup for every eight staff members at no additional cost. If someone can't make it, a qualified replacement is already on standby before your demo station opens. Your station is never dark and your roadshow is never short-staffed — even on the busiest warehouse days.
            
                What training do your staff receive before a Costco roadshow?
                +
            
                Our demo staff complete product-specific briefings before every roadshow covering your product's features, key selling points, sampling protocol, objection handling, and daily sales goals. On demo day, every team member goes through a pre-shift all-hands briefing covering the warehouse layout, member flow expectations, and exactly how to succeed at your station.
            
                Do you staff roadshows across multiple Costco locations?
                +
            
                Yes. We staff single-location roadshows and multi-warehouse rollouts across major markets. Each location gets its own on-site lead and is managed through a centralized account manager who tracks performance, staffing, and logistics across every warehouse simultaneously.
            
                What does your Costco roadshow booking process look like?
                +
            
                It starts with a consultation to understand your product, roadshow dates, locations, and sales goals. From there we present matched staff profiles for your review, confirm scheduling, and assign a dedicated account manager to your activation. Pre-event briefing channels are set up for both the client team and the demo crew so everyone is aligned well before your first demo day.
            
                How do your demo staff handle member interactions and objections?
                +
            
                Our staff are trained to engage Costco members naturally — stopping foot traffic without being pushy, delivering a concise and compelling product story, and handling price, skepticism, or "I'll think about it" objections in real time. They know the warehouse floor is a fast-moving environment and adapt their approach to match the pace and energy of each member interaction.
            
                Can we request specific staff for repeat roadshows?
                +
            
                Absolutely. Many of our clients request the same demo reps for recurring roadshows because continuity drives better results. Your account manager keeps detailed notes on staff performance so we can rebuild your preferred team for every roadshow run — and find a qualified match quickly if availability changes.
            
                What do we get in the post-demo recap?
                +
            
                After every demo day, your account manager receives a recap from on-site leads covering units sampled, estimated sales conversions, member feedback and common objections, restocking needs, and any operational notes from the warehouse floor. It's the data you need to optimize your next roadshow and report results back to your team.
