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.
Email flyers are popular. Hard flyers left on car windshields is another popular one amongst crappy clubs. My car looks like it's been through a parade with all the crap on it after a night in a hollywood parking lot.

It helps. The best DJ's have agents. Otherwise it's a bunch of networking and trying to get your music heard
Share Answer: 
Depends on the bar and the city. And how attractive she is.
Share Answer: 
Networking usually. For the good ones at least. I've see bar/clubs post on craigslist for promoters. I imagine those places have metal detectors at the door.

Why have there been so many 15-2 upsets, but no 16-1's?
Small local bars don't usually use outside promoters
Share Answer: 
Vegas promoters are much more concerned about bottle clients and much less concerned about curiating a crowd since the crowd is mostly out-of-towners so there's little repeat business. Also the clubs are so big and expensive that you need bottle clients and bodies, not a handful of super attractive women.
Also Vegas promoters are scummier.
