Nightclub Promoter

Nightclub Promoter

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.

I've just applied to work at a gentlemen's club (doing anything but dancing) and they said they thought I'd make a good promo girl based on my personality. So my question is what's the best way to get people coming in to buy a bottle at the door?

Asked by Darling almost 12 years ago

Be prepared to get really sick of every guy asking "why aren't you up there?"

Gentlemen's Clubs are not my forte. I don't really get the appeal. Have these guys not heard of internet porn?

Have you ever found the pickup artist methods to ever have worked in a club setting as they so claim? or is it just a numbers game when it comes to club pickups even after 1AM?

Asked by sexymofo about 12 years ago

Clubs in LA were littered with PUA's for quite some time. Any girl who had been out more than a few times was familiar with the techniques (most notably, asking an opinion on something). 

I unfortunately met most of the instructors and most of them were frauds. Their best techinique was apparently having really low standards.  

That said, I've seen it work and in some rare cases work very well but I attribute it to a placebo effect (the guy thinks it's going to work so the confidence makes it so) and just plain volume.

I'm starting to do a little promoting for Monday Night Social recently moved to Sound Nightclub. I'm not really interested in the promoting but I can personally bring in artists. What's the best way to spread my name for door sales?

Asked by Marc almost 12 years ago

I'm not sure what spreading your name for door sales means. Promoters only know about spreading legs for bottle service.

Is there anything about the nightlife experience/industry as a whole (not just clubs) that you feel could be improved? Particularly with the use of technology. Anything that made you think, there has to be a better way..?

How much should I charge a popular night club in atlanta to promote their club? What are usually the rates?

Asked by kuzzinkel almost 12 years ago

For the most part you don't set the rates, the club does. You don't have much leverage as a promoter so at the beginning at least, you take what you can get. Good luck.
