Nightclub Promoter

Nightclub Promoter

Hollywood, CA

Male, 32

I promoted at several of Hollywood’s hottest clubs during a period of unemployment, mainly to see what all of the fuss was about. While it was fun and definitely had its perks, it also confirmed quite a few of the suspicions and stereotypes I’d previously held about how the industry works.

How do promoters know so many people/get so many phone numbers?

Asked by Hollywood girl over 12 years ago

The short answer is they hustle.

Mostly facebook and other social media now (instagram is big). If you project the right image and are fun and attractive, clients especially women, show up. The more people you know, the more will seek you out and your job becomes easier. It's a network effect.

How old is too old for a girl to get in the club?

Asked by Gwendolyn almost 13 years ago

Depends how good the club is. As a rule of thumb, if your kid is in high school, please stay home.

What is the best way to get into bootsy bellows and hooray henry's if I don't know any promoters for that club? Can i just show up and be honest with them and tell them that i don't know anyone and see if i look the part for those clubs? Thanks

Asked by Kate J. almost 12 years ago

Same way you do for any club. Knowing someone is almost irrelevant, it's all how you look and what your male / female ratio is. So, Kate, if you're cute you'll get in and you'll meet promoters soon enough.

are there a lot of girl promoters? Can I be one?

Please send your pic and phone number, better yet just stop by....

Ok I'm kidding. Apply to places in person. If you are a good as you sound, they'll hire you. 

what should i set the bar minimum at?

Asked by mike j almost 13 years ago

Depends on your area/city. You don't  have a lot of negotiating power as a promoter at least at the beginning. 

My daughter is 22 and beautiful. She does not stand in line and gets free drinks. She is half Persian and half Mexican but now I know she gets in because she is hot. My question is are there any descent guys in these places?

Asked by Mom almost 12 years ago

Hi Mom! Glad you could join us.

Why did you think she got it in? Her wit?

I'm going to need to photographic verification of said daughter's hotness. Then I can tell you if she'll meet a decent guy or not (or a descent one for that matter)
