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.
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.
Mom?
Do you look like a porn star? Then Miami Bottle Girl might be the right career for you. Inquire in person.
Never been to Ft. Lauderdale so can't speak to that. I imagine it's a JV version of Miami.
Keep in mind, in either case you'll have to live in Florida. So there's that.....
Depends greatly. I've seen as high as 20%

Bahahaha. You know who models end up sleeping with? Creepy guys and players.
And yeah they might play up liking them for free drinks but it's a symbiotic relationship. The promoter needs them at least as much as they need the promoter.
And in reality they hate them because they've slept with them only to realize the promoters are sleeping with tons of other girls too.
See previous answer on this same question
Depends on your area/city. You don't have a lot of negotiating power as a promoter at least at the beginning.
