Cultivate your Environment

In this article I’m going to walk you through the strategies and resources you can use to find the people and places in your city that will allow you to build the social circle you want.

I’m going to show you how you can utilize Instagram as a reconnaissance tool to identify the best venues in your town and to break into the fickle 500 of your city.

Inventory the Current People in your You Army

Before we begin our reconnaissance strategies, I want you to organize your social circle as it stands now, so we can identify the exact people you need.

Review your social circle and input the names of each person that fulfills a role below.

Female Friends & Pivots

Identify the top 3 females friend and pivots in your social circle. If you have none that’s perfectly ok. By organizing your social circle in this manner we can identify the roles that need to be filled.

High Status Male Friends

Identify the top 3 friends & high status males in your social circle.

Male Confidant

Identify your male confidant.

Nightlife Hosts & Promoters

Here I want you to list your nightlife contacts. These include promoters and VIP hosts.

Nightlife Management

Nightlife management are the top tier nightlife professionals. These include club GM’s, marketing directors and club managers. For smaller venues such as bars, lounges, restaurants and strip clubs these would include owners and floor managers.

This is a section that for many will be unfilled. Again that’s absolutely ok. I really want you to start shifting your thinking to a top down approach and attune your RAS to look for opportunities to befriend the highest ranking nightlife professionals.
