Gold-en Rules of Promoting Newsletter #5
(Part-Time Pay)
February 20, 2007
Hey,
I hope you enjoyed your extended weekend...and hopefully you
took advantage of the long weekend to party hard and make some
extra cash.
Since I've been sending out my newsletter, I've been getting
a lot of people that are excited to try promoting parties or
clubs, but they *think* that they can't because either:
a) they are currently in school or
b) they currently have a full time job.
The number one question I've been getting emailed is:
"Can I do this in my part-time"
The answer is 1,000% yes!!!
I personally started promoting parties in my part-time when
I was in college...and now that I think of it, almost everyone
I know or have worked with in this business, started doing it
part time.
As I talk about in my book, The Party Promoter Guide, I
personally started throwing parties in college just so I would
have enough money to go away on Spring Break. I never thought
that I would make it into a (lucrative) career!
I began throwing parties when I was a full-time college student
so I fully understand that many new promoters can only promote
part-time or "on the side".
And, that's totally fine--because promoting can still be very
profitable part-time!!!
If you think about it, promoting is the perfect part-time job
to help you supplement your lifestyle, because all the parties
and clubs you'll be promoting will be done AT NIGHT and ON THE
WEEKENDS.
If you work a 9-5 job, promoting will not get in the way.
If you are a full-time student, and have classes all day, just
promote on the side when you have free time or when you don't
have midterms and finals.
The beauty of this business is the flexibility that it gives
you...you can start and stop whenever you want.
You can promote 1x a week, 1x a weekend, 1x a month or
whenever. There are almost no expenses involved, so you can
throw, or promote, a party whenever your schedule allows you to!

Real Life Example:
I have a friend in Boston, MA that promoted when he was in
college but when he graduated, he took a job selling mortgages,
where he does very well. But to this day, he still promotes
parties a few times per year to help supplement his income.
He promotes New Years Eve, Halloween, and one other party a year
(4th of July or Memorial Day) and he brings in about
$8,000 from just promoting a few nights a year. Imagine making
$8k for only working a couple nights!!! Lucky for him, he's been
able to keep in touch with all his contacts that he had in
college and when these big events come around, he gets all his
clients to come to his party and he totally cleans up!

So, the point of this email is to let you know that YES, you can
promote parties part-time or "on the side" if you want.
You don't have to be a money hungry, party promoting, freak
like me, to make some money in this business. (Although it
doesn't hurt.)
My advice to you: download a copy of my
step-by-step Party Promoting Guide at
http://www.partypromoterguide.com/letter.html
Read through it, and then try promoting a little on the side...
see if you like it...and when you do (everyone seems to like to
get paid to party so I'm assuming you will too) you can slowly
throw more and more parties, and then decide if you want to take
it to the next level.
Your friend in Nightlife,

P.S. The sooner you start promoting, the
sooner you can start making some cash...so if you're
