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.

Trying to message a promoter about getting in somewhere. How would I go about it? Do I just ask right off the back, or attempt small talk?

Asked by Eddy about 11 years ago

Ask right off the bat. Or off the back, if you're a chick I guess.

I'm throwing a Halloween Party (it falls on a Friday), but I don't know many ppl, so I want to hire 2 friends who know a lot of ppl. I'm thinking to charge $ 40 as presale. (I rented a warehouse). How much cut should I give them? Thx.

Asked by LO_Ris over 11 years ago

Depends on your profit margins after renting the venue, etc. I assume you want to make a profit? $5-10 would be typical

Actually I have found that the promoters usually want to have a relationship with the models, whilst f'ing the plain jane club ho's on the side. But they will never upgrade the Basic Club Ho's to girlfriend status and alot of the time the models

Basic Club Ho's would be a good name for a band.

 

Whats a good way to advertise for free bottle service? Posting online will not only attract people you don't want, but the clubs don't appreciate you advertising in that manner. Any ideas?

You're having trouble giving away $2000? Maybe promoting isn't for you.

My husband was offered a job being a club promoter. Good or bad for marriage?

Asked by thea over 11 years ago

Hard to say as an outsider to your marriage and every marriage is different. How do you feel about alcoholism and HPV?

How do you become a promoter ?

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 11 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.
