JOIN THE GRID
Below is a detailed overview of our expectations for both ambassadors and partnered DJs, along with information about our upcoming events.
Introduction
This section provides a comprehensive look at what we expect from our ambassadors and partnered DJs, as well as details about our upcoming events. After reading through, you'll find a short questionnaire to help us get to know you and determine if you're a strong fit for Grid Society. We appreciate your interest in being part of what we're building.
About Grid Society
Grid Society produces electronic music events in Cincinnati with one goal: building a connected, unified EDM culture in the city. So far that is 3 shows, 3 sold out, with 15 artists across our stages.
Our events are focused on bass music, featuring dubstep, riddim, and heavy bass throughout the night, with high-level production and shows that run until 3:00 AM.
Next up is Unity, Saturday, November 21 at The Mockbee, 8:30PM to 3AM. One Ticket = One Family Fed with St. Vincent de Paul. Details and tickets are on the home page, and more events are in development.
Ambassador Program
Our ambassador team will be one of the most important parts of Grid Society. Our goal is not just to throw events, but to build a connected and unified EDM culture in Cincinnati. The Society in our name is intentional, and it starts with the people involved.
We are looking for individuals who are:
- Passionate about EDM
- Connected within their local communities
- Motivated to help grow something meaningful
As an ambassador, you represent Grid Society both online and in person. We expect everyone on the team to reflect our core values: respect, inclusivity, and positive energy. We are building a foundation rooted in a welcoming culture so that as we grow, that identity carries forward.
Responsibilities
Ambassadors are expected to:
- Be active on social media through reposting, commenting, and sharing content
- Promote events directly to their network
- Represent Grid Society positively in all interactions
- Include Grid Society in their social media bio
The most important role is direct outreach, sharing events with people who will genuinely enjoy and contribute to the experience.
Compensation Structure
This is a commission based role. Each ambassador will receive a custom ticket link to track their sales.
Ambassador compensation:
- You will earn $1 per ticket sold
- You must sell 10 tickets to receive a free event ticket
- Top 3 ambassadors will receive bonuses of:
- $70 (1st)
- $50 (2nd)
- $30 (3rd)
Our goal is to reward those who contribute while also building a system that encourages effort and growth. As Grid Society expands, we plan to increase compensation and opportunities, especially for those who are involved early and consistently.
DJ/Artist Specific Information
In addition to our ambassador program, we are actively looking to work with high-quality DJ talent across Cincinnati and nearby cities. Our goal is to grow alongside local artists and create opportunities for those who are serious about their craft. We are open to a wide range of genres, from mainstream to more unique and experimental styles, as long as there is clear passion, effort, and identity behind the music.
DJ compensation is typically structured as either:
- A variable commission-based model
- Or a hybrid model combining a fixed fee with commission
Artists who are actively producing music and developing their own sound will be prioritized for bookings, as we are focused on building lineups with forward momentum and originality.
* Signing up for the artist program does not guarantee you a position on the lineup, but it does put you in our pool of artists to pull from for opening slots.
Closing
Our focus is investing heavily into production, talent, and experience to build a strong foundation. But this project cannot grow without the right people behind it. If you believe in what we're building and want to be part of it, this is where it starts.
