Part-Time | $20/Hour + Bonuses | 8–16 Hours/Week | Mostly Weekends
New season. New energy. Big opportunity.
Zion Outdoors is gearing up for our biggest season yet, and we’re adding 7 Brand Ambassadors to the team to help us make a big splash in DFW as we kickoff 2027!
We’re looking for outgoing, competitive, money-motivated people who want more than just a part-time job. Whether you’re a college student looking for flexible income or someone wanting a fun side gig with real earning potential, this is your chance to join a fast-growing company, develop valuable sales skills, and make an impact.
Our new team starts November 16, 2026. You’ll have time to learn our systems, train with the team, practice your approach, and build the confidence to hit the ground running when our busy season kicks off in February 2027.
We’re not just looking to fill shifts. We’re building a team of people who want to grow, win, and stick around. If you bring the right attitude, competitive drive, and team-first mindset, there’s room to make this role your own.
Who We Are
We’re Zion Outdoors, one of the fastest-growing outdoor living companies in Texas. We transform driveways, walkways, patios, and pool decks into beautiful, functional spaces homeowners love.
Founded by two friends with a big vision, Zion has grown from 2 employees in February 2024 to 85 employees in 2026 and is on track to generate nearly $20 million in revenue in our third year. Our mission is to transform more than 1 million homes and become the Hardscape Heroes of America.
We believe home improvement can be better. We want to deliver an exceptional client experience, build a team that loves what it does, and have F.U.N. along the way.
We’re growing fast, and this is an exciting time to join the journey.
Who You Are
You don’t have to be an experienced salesperson. You do need to bring energy, ambition, and a willingness to learn.
Ask yourself:
- Are you money-motivated? You want to earn more, and you’re willing to put in the effort to make it happen.
- Are you competitive? You enjoy setting goals, tracking results, and finding ways to win.
- Are you a people person? You can confidently start conversations with strangers and make a great first impression.
- Are you coachable? You learn quickly, follow proven systems, and put feedback into action.
- Are you team-first? You want to win while helping the people around you succeed.
- Are you looking for something you can stick with? You want a part-time role where you can build skills, grow with the company, and contribute beyond a few shifts.
- Can you work mostly weekends, with some weekday evening availability?
- Do you live in the Houston area and have reliable transportation?
If that sounds like you, we want to meet you!
What You’ll Do
You’ll represent Zion Outdoors at local fairs, festivals, home shows, and community events. Your job is to spark conversations, build excitement about what we do, and connect homeowners with our team.
Your responsibilities include:
- Starting friendly, engaging conversations with homeowners about their outdoor living spaces
- Introducing our products and services through short, engaging presentations
- Scheduling qualified in-home appointments for our Sales Designers
- Generating leads and entering homeowners into company giveaway contests
- Setting up and breaking down our event booth
- Learning and following Zion’s proven systems to improve your results

You’re not just standing at a booth. You’re helping create the first impression of Zion Outdoors and driving real growth for the company.

Event Marketing Specialist Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become an event marketing specialist in Texas?
Most event marketing specialist roles in Texas require a bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, public relations, or advertising. No state-issued license is required for this role in Texas. Employers typically look for hands-on experience through internships, campus event planning, or coordination roles, along with demonstrated proficiency in project management and marketing tools. Earning credentials like the Certified Meeting Professional designation can strengthen your candidacy with larger Texas corporate employers.
How much do event marketing specialists make in Texas?
Event marketing specialists in Texas earn a median of about $72,520 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $37,640 for the lowest 10% to over $135,710 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire event marketing specialists in Texas?
Employers hiring event marketing specialists in Texas right now include Cyclone Marketing, Zion Outdoors, and ACBJ, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Texas's concentration of Fortune 500 headquarters in Dallas-Fort Worth and major energy and healthcare firms in Houston means corporate event marketing teams here tend to be large and hire with regularity.
Which Texas cities have the most event marketing specialist jobs?
Houston, Fort Worth, and Plano have the most event marketing specialist openings in Texas. Dallas-Fort Worth leads because of its dense cluster of corporate headquarters and a major convention center economy, Houston follows given its energy sector events and medical conference activity, and Austin's fast-growing technology and creative industries drive consistent demand for experiential and brand-focused event roles.
Are there remote event marketing specialist jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're limited. Event marketing is heavily execution-driven, meaning on-site presence for activations, trade shows, and vendor coordination is a core expectation for most roles. About 11% of event marketing specialist openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with flexibility most common in the strategic planning, content, and campaign coordination portions of the role rather than in live event execution.
How can I get hired as an event marketing specialist in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is securing a marketing coordinator or events assistant role at a Texas convention center, hotel group, or large corporate marketing department. Companies like HEB, Texas Instruments, and major Dallas-Fort Worth agencies regularly hire entry-level events support staff. Building a portfolio from college event committees, nonprofit fundraisers, or volunteer conference work is treated as legitimate experience. Completing a Certified Meeting Professional preparatory course also signals seriousness to hiring managers at larger Texas employers.
