Success Story Of Miami Club Promoter

Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

http://www.PartyPromoting.com

Blog Summary:
I visited Miami to check up on the club scene and to catch up with an old promoter friend of mine. He was a security guard at the club I used to own.
Back then he was interested in getting into promoting so he started working with my street team passing out flyers. From there he became a sub-promoter, getting paid based on how many people came out to the club due to his efforts. He did extremely well with that and started promoting parties himself as the head promoter. He later moved from Atlanta back to Miami (where he was from) and got a Friday night at a hot club in downtown Miami!
His night brings in over 1000+ customers consistently now!
This is a story that should encourage anyone that they can start from the bottom and work their way up to being a successful full time promoter!
He went from making $15/hr doing security to Thousands of dollars a week with his night!!

Basic way to throw a party with a liquor sponsor

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

http://www.partypromoting.com - Learn how to Throw A Party the right way! Check out the Party Promoting 3.0 Learning Course Today!!

Blog Summary:
Here I discuss a basic way for you to use a liquor sponsor when throwing your next party. Doesn’t involve the liquor sponsor giving you a ton of money but you can get other incentives to help your party promotion. By this I mean complimentary drinks, t-shirts, hats, key chains, etc. You get in contact with liquor reps by talking to the club manager or bar manager and asking them who there liquor and distributor reps are and finding out if they have any brands they’re currently doing promotions for. This is very typical when a club brings in a new product or when they make an order for a product that is well supported by it’s manufacturer.

Why Clubs Need Party Promoters To Throw Parties

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

http://www.partypromoting.com
Learn how to throw a party the right way with Party Promoting 3.0.

Blog Summary:
Answering a question from the forum about why nightclub owners need party promoters to throw parties instead of promoting it themselves internally.

In-house club promoting is common. There are a few reasons they don’t always do this.
1. It cost the club a lot of extra money to promote every night internally
2. It takes time and a whole lot of effort to set up a promotion and follow through with it from week to week for multiple nights
3. Using a variety of promoters allows the club to expand their clientele base beyond the people they normally get.

Clubs sometimes do in-house promos for their big nights like Fri & Sat so they can keep all the door revenue to themselves. But you’ll find that they’re more than willing to give the other weekday nights out to promoters.

Party Promoter Tip #2 - Budget Celebrity Host

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

The Official Party Promoter Guide - PartyPromoting.com

I did this video blog when I got in from the cold and was thinking about a way for Club Promoters working with a smaller budget to still get a “celebrity” host. Everyone can’t afford to have T.I. or Young Jeezy to host their party right!? So I titled it - A Lower Budget Way Of Getting A Celebrity Host. Basically, It’s about how to use a radio personality to act as your host. Radio personalities, or jocks, already have a fan base and they have access to the air waves to give you and your party shout-outs. This instantly gives your party credibility amongst the listening fans of that jock’s show and gives you exposure without having to buy expensive radio ads!

4 Ways To Ensure That Your Party Promotion Will Go As Planned

When you’re putting together a great event, you want to make sure everything is perfect so that it all goes as planned. This may not always be easy, and in fact you will have to work hard at it to make sure that it does go the way that you are hoping. You shouldn’t get all worked up about your event. As long as you have the right resources and the work ethic to do it, you will have a great and successful time.

There are four ways to ensure that your event will go just as you have planned. You will first want to make a budget. Once you know how much you can afford, you will then be able to plan out all that you have to spend on your purchases. Budgeting will give you some kind of starting point of estimating expenses, expected revenue, and profit. It’s very important to stick to your budget so that you’re not forced to overspend and you get as close to your target outcome as possible.

Once you have the budget in place you will want to make a to-do list. This is the second way to ensure that everything goes as planned. Once you have a list of all the materials and things that you need to organize, you will then be well on your way to making the most of your event. Plan ahead so you can have time to search for all the best deals on the things you need instead of having to rush the process. Keep track of what’s on your list and check things off to assure you’re not forgetting to take care of the minor details. You will find that putting together your party will go a lot easier and be less stressful when you have a great plan to go off of. The goal is to stay organized and on track.

The third way to ensure that your event goes as planned is to make sure that you have a lot of help. You don’t want to take on all the challenges of running an event all by yourself. You want to have a good team assembled so that you are able to make the most of your party. You want to have friends help you out as much as possible, as well as even hiring some extra hands to get everything done for you. They will also be able to keep an eye on things at the event. They can watch over and make sure that all is running smoothly - and if there is a problem, they can try and fix it before you even find out about it. This will be a great help and also take some of the stress off of you when these situations arise. You never want to be overwhelmed with details. Have your helpers handle the little things while you focus on the big picture.

The fourth tip is to stay aware of unexpected things that can happen. You will want to be on the lookout for any thing that can come up and be prepared to handle it. Having some “plan B’s” and backups in place is the best way to prepare for incidentals. The key thing to remember when facing an unexpected happening is to stay calm. You do not want to get yourself worked up too much. You want to make sure that you are calm and collected so that you can handle any problems that may come up at the party. Keeping your cool will help you stay focused on finding solutions to any problems and better delegate people to the task that will get things back on track.

7 Things To Consider When Scouting For A Venue

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

Click this link: Learn All the Party Promoter Secrets

1. Compatibility - Your venue needs to line up with the overall feel of the event you are trying to conduct. For example, if you’re trying to do an upscale black-tie event, you shouldn’t be looking at booking a venue that’s known for rave parties! And vice-versa, you shouldn’t look to do a crazy “Girls Gone Wild” themed party at a dress code enforced lounge. The theme and the venue need to coincide.

2. Cost – Some venues may require a rental fee or bar guarantee in order for you to use the space. Try to find a venue that doesn’t require any fees or upfront cost, but if they do, you’ll want to make sure you budget properly for that.

3. Location - Ask yourself, “Is the venue already a well known destination?”, if it’s not, “How hard is it to find?” Also, think about what part of town the venue is on. Is it far from your focus of clientele or is it near a bad neighborhood where customers may not feel safe to come? These are all good questions to ask yourself when deciding.

4. Capacity - You want to make sure that you don’t pick a venue that is too big for what you speculate your turn out to be, nor should you choose a place that is too small that can’t accommodate an expected large crowd. If you plan on promoting a party to your neighborhood or your college class mates, you may not need a venue that holds anymore than 300-400 people. But if you are promoting an event to an entire city of people and you have a big celebrity hosting the party, you may need a venue that holds 1500-2000 people. Just think practically about it when making this decision.

5. Parking - Parking can be a major issue. If there isn’t enough parking or if it’s insecure, you may have problems with your customers feeling safe about leaving their cars in undesignated areas around the venue. If the venue has a paid parking lot or mandatory valet parking you’ll want to be conscious of that too.

6. Age requirement & Dress Code - Be aware of what the age requirements are to enter and if the venue has a dress code. If you’re doing a college event, you may miss out on a lot of your clientele if the venue requires guest to be of age 21 and up and if they don’t allow sneakers and hats.

7. Sound system - Make sure that the sound system of the venue is up to par and that they have any special equipment that you may need for your event. Poor sound can ruin a night. There is nothing worse than a hot DJ playing great records and no one is enjoying the music because the sound system has no bass, or some of the speakers in the venue are blown. Bad sound will definitely lose your crowd.
