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.

do clubs ever get protested by feminist leagues, anti rape orgnizations, that kind of thing?

Asked by annie burns almost 13 years ago

Ha, I've never seen it but the idea of a bouncer flashing a light in the face of a short-haired Vassar alum screaming about rape culture makes me laugh. 

I am interested in becoming a club promoter here in Los Angeles, CA. How and where do I start.

See my answer above to the question that starts with "Starting From Stratch...."

i just got a job as a bottle service girl. I said I had over two years of experience and ive actually never done it. Can you give me a run down of what a night looks like as a bottle service girl?

Asked by jenn over 12 years ago

You lied, which is a good start to work in an industry that is based on lies. Good job.

It's pretty simple. Fit in to a corsett, put on loads of makeup and flirt with skeezy guys. And occasionally pour drinks for them. Don't sweat it, it's not balancing the federal budget and they'll fill you in on exactly what they expect of you.

......i'm pretty sure this girl doesn't sleep around but she did become a bartender at 18 and does it sometimes. can you write out a how-to list for attractive girls that want to live the same lifestyle? i'm 20 and have a fake id."

You're kidding yourself if you don't think she sleeps around. That lifestyle only goes so far until you have to pay the piper.

There's no to-do list except maybe move to LA, NY or Miami. Look hot, got out a lot, if you are attractive enough, the rest comes to you.

Is there anything about the nightlife experience/industry as a whole (not just clubs) that you feel could be improved? Particularly with the use of technology. Anything that made you think, there has to be a better way..?

Asked by Alexander over 12 years ago

Yeah...forgoing it all together in favor of online dating.

How do I meet a promoter who can get us hooked up at a specific club on short notice (1-2 weeks)? My girlfriends and I want to check out hot spots like LAVO, Le Bain, Cielo, etc, but we're all new to the NYC nightlife scene.

Asked by NYC Chick almost 13 years ago

I suggest facebook. Do searches for those places and look on their walls to see who is liking or commenting. Find attractive women and see who is commenting and liking on a lot of their pages (they will likely be promoters).

Then again, if you are hot enough, just show up. 

what's a good way to find a goood catchy name for my partner and i?
