Next Year i'm going to be transferring to Morgan state in Baltimore and instead of getting a real job I was thinking about getting into the club/party promotions business. My major is marketing, but I was wondering if there was anybody that could give me any tips or tell me how they started promoting clubs and throwing parties.
Basically I don't really understand the business. It is probably just because of where I am from (a small city with only 2 clubs)so there is not a big selection on where people can party at. Now from what I understand is that a club promoters job is to basically pack the club. None of the clubs where i live have promoters people just hear about the club word of mouth. I just don't understand why a promoter would be that valuable to a club. I also don't know how to start promoting a club. do i just go around and ask different owners do they need a promoter? I'm not going down there to next year, but I just wanna be prepared so i can start right away. I appreciate any help.
