Nightclub Promoter

Nightclub Promoter

Xander

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.

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)

How can I become a bottle girl in Miami or Ft lauderdale?

Asked by kiki over 11 years ago

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.....





Do you know The Electric Pickle club in Miami?..is it easy or difficult trying to get in(I am a 20 year-old girl)

I'm unfamilar that but was my nickname in high school

I'm gonna do a vacation year in Australia- Sydney.

I'd like to work for a nightclub to earn some Money while i live there.
Can i work as a promoter with 18 years and no experience? Is there a job to animate people? I'd love to do that.

Asked by Julian almost 13 years ago

The places I went to in Sydney didn't use promoters. Not sure if that's standard there. Start talking to people and you'll figure it out. 

Animate people? That's what the drugs and alcohol are for.

Thanks for the cynical , upfront, and hilarious replies! Should be a regular column, addressing all aspects of life....lol

Asked by Thanks over 10 years ago

Thanks sir or madam. I couldn't agree more. It's about time Xander The Promoter became Xander the Life Coach. Like Oprah, all the best ones have a single name.

I was wondering, if you keep asking the promoter for guest list, how do you show that you're grateful? Do you tip? And also, do you prefer being informed of the party coming in two weeks advance or a few days before?

Asked by psychoanalyst over 12 years ago

Bringing hot girls is the ultimate thank you. Or buying bottles from him. It's rare to tip but it's nice when it happens. It's like anything in life, money talks.

If you are getting a table, then advanced notice is great. If not, the promoter doesn't care, just show up and hope the door guy let's you in.

This guy asked me what I charge to host (I have no idea what that even means). What does hosting at a nightclub entail and what does it usually pay?

Asked by Hollywood girl over 12 years ago

It means either being the bottle girl or the girl at front with the clipboard. Pay varies but bottle girls can make a lot on tips (and usually 20% on the bottles)
