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.

The club's General Manager handles this

The PR manager of one of the biggest clubs in LA has banned me because I slept with his girlfriend. Is he allowed to do that? How much money do club PR managers usually make in opposed to regular promoters? He claims to be Loaded..

First of all, that's awesome. Kudos to you, I imagine she was hot. Please send pics. 

I'm guessing there's no legal statutue that says you are allowed into nightclubs despite banging the manager's giftfriend. So you're probably going to have to go somewhere else.

Like most people in nightlife, they don't make much. You don't do that job for the money

whats the best way to find a promoter who is looking for acts to perform at an event

Asked by blaze over 10 years ago

Promoters don't get involved in acts for the most part. It's straight from club to the acts and their reps, usually

Are You familiar with Greystone Manor in Los Angeles? Whats the best thing to say or way to get in after fighting through the huge crowd and getting a promoter or a bouncers attention?

Asked by roro over 10 years ago

I live walking distance from it. It's not good anymore so "hey I'm not fat" should be enough.

If not, the standard rules apply. Bring girls, be nice, look good, know a promoter, show up early, and if all else fails, be ready to grease the bouncer. 

How do u become friends with bouncers/managers? At this really exclusive club, my friends have become buddies with them and get greeted. I go often but not as much, and they still ID me out of the whole group, its embarrassing. How can I change this?

You have to meet those guys outside of the club. In LA, a lot of them train MMA so joining an MMA or Jiu-jitsu gym is a good way.

If I have enough money could I invest in or become a partial owner if a nightclub? Would that create opportunities for some temporary female companionship?

Asked by Doc over 10 years ago

The entire business is run on this principle. Take money from some rich, older "investors" who made their money in something boring (finance, real estate, oil and gas, insurance, etc) and sell them on being cool by owning a nightclub. And yes, it can get you laid. 

The film business works mostly the same way.

Asked by I need a Promoter over 9 years ago

Asian Girl Promoters from Florida sound like a really specific voting demographic.

You'd find them clubbing. You'll start seeing the same girls again and again. Go talk to them.

Also, move out of Florida.
