Nightclub Promoter

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.

If a new club is trying to make a name for itself, will they ever go as far as actually *hiring* hot girls to hang out there (like the seat-fillers at the Oscars)?

Asked by SouljahBoi over 13 years ago

Definitely. Although it's usually the promoters that hire the girls, and the clubs just hire the promoters. I've seen clubs / parties do the hiring, usually for one-off parties or day time events.

Hi! I have an interview tomorrow to be a VIP host/ promoter in a couple of clubs in Hollywood , do you know how much is the rate or paid per person in los Angeles area? Or what is the estimate payment per person and bottle service?

Asked by lhca1234 about 12 years ago

Minimum wage plus commissions on bottles for a VIP host. Hope it went well.

Are "ladies nights" effective? Are clubs doing them less frequently now that there have been a bunch of discrimination lawsuits?

Asked by AZmiguel over 12 years ago

Ladies nights are very effective.....for getting chubby chicks HAMMERED. In a town like LA that caters to high end clubs rather than your neighborhood wet t-shirt contest bar/pub, discounted or free drinks for women is pretty pointless - they aren't paying for drinks anyway.

What's the craziest hook-up situation promoting got you into? 3 girls at once?

Asked by MrMr over 13 years ago

I wasn't in it long enough for a foursome. I've had some fun but not like a lot of longer-time promoters I knew who could really tell you some stories.
