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.

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..?

Lets just assume that I've some money to spend, how would I get the easiest way inside a club being what you call a undesirable ethnicity, badly dressed and all?

Asked by sexymofo about 13 years ago

Buy nice clothes, try to bring girls if you can, grease the bouncer. If all else fails, buy botttle service.

Should a promoter be held accountable for liabilty during the night of his event.

Asked by Alias about 13 years ago

Ha! No. The club isn't even really liable for most things and they have insurance (which costs a fortune) for the things they are liable for. If a promoter was held liable for the actions of 2000 drunk and potentially drugged-up bozos, no one would ever do the job.

Im an 18 year old DJ in LA and started going to clubs last year. I really want to DJ in clubs. How would i DJ in clubs in LA? Do i have to know the promoter etc? Whats the best way?

Asked by GI about 13 years ago

I'm not a well versed in the DJ scene. I do know most of the DJ's in LA clubs have DJ agents that get them gigs. Your best bet is to meet some LA based DJ's and ask. I don't think knowing promoters helps much.

would you ever let your own daughter work in the nightclub business?

Asked by bluesyde over 13 years ago

Hold on the thought of having a daughter just scared me for a second......ok I'm back. Luckily for my potential future daughter, I don't live in culture where she would need to have family's permission to do something. If she's an adult, she can make her own decision. I would tell her the same thing I would tell a son....do it for awhile but don't stay too long. Also stay away from promoters, those guys are the worst.

I've noticed that 9/10 girls on fb or any social media ignore you even if you offer free drinks and and free entry at some of the most upscale nightclubs. Did you have any social media strategies? Thanks.

Asked by Al almost 13 years ago

This means your facebook profile isn't cool enough. It's not about free drinks or entry, it's about whether they want to actually hang out with you. Do you think girls have any trouble getting free drinks or free entry without you?
