Bartending Pro Tips Part 2:

This article is a continuation of Bartending Pro Tips Part 1: How to Make Money and Have Fun With a Career In Bartending

8. If there is trouble or violence try, at all costs, to avoid coming out from behind the bar. Raise your voice and attempt to take control verbally, while you are dialing 911. Many bars do not provide security. A personal friend of mine came out from behind the bar and hit an assailant with a full bar bottle since the assault was against a woman. That bartender (who owned the bar) is still in prison not because the bad guy died days later, but because the bartender ?came out from behind the bar.?

9. Tip jars are sort of an optional thing, depending on the type of bar. If you follow the sort of relationship-building techniques I have suggested, then when your customer is cashing out it should be a face-to-face, handshake-to-handshake experience They are a lot more likely to deal with you fairly (maybe show off a little bit too) than if they can sneak a few quarters and a dime into a tip jar when you are busy. If you have waiter and waitress staff, one surly server can easily cost you a considerable amount, and that is only if you ever even see their tips. Tip and bar/service accounts should, in my opinion, be kept separate and are in many establishments.

10. That naturally brings me to keeping the other staff happy! Their ability to make money has to do with how well the drinks are made and how quickly they can deliver them, so there is a delicate balance between your bar customers and the table customers. Keep an eye on your own customers, and try to anticipate when they might need another drink. Take care of it, in advance, and if you you are filling table orders (very important) always acknowledge your bar customers and let them know that you noticed. Assure them that their drink is coming right up!

11. Even if it is not within your job description, help the table staff clean up and flip the chairs. Support them any way you can. The only time I would ever advise coming out from behind the bar would be in defense of the staff, and, even then, yell loudly, several times (to staff mostly), for someone to call 911. They will need to know that they have your support (even in if your place of employment has bouncers), so just always do what you can to protect their sense of having a good place to work because, in spite of all your efforts to provide a fun atmosphere for your customers, unhappy staff can detract from that.

12. When you have time, spend time talking with your customers. Don?t sit on a stool sipping a coke and obviously trying to find some time alone, even if you are ?on break.? You can be on break at home. Talk news, talk about local folks and interesting places, but more importantly try and get them talking about what is important to them. They aren?t in a library, they are in a bar, and maybe they want to talk, a lot more than be talked to. It?s easy to walk away when you get busy; they can wait and, if they can?t, start gauging their intoxication level.

13. Thank every customer for having spent their time there with you and, if possible, shake their hand. That sort of thing means a lot to people and will keep them coming back. Look them in the eye, particularly when they are cashing out. (Tip Time)

14. If that moment isn?t available, because you are otherwise involved, when you see them rise to leave (and you are sure the bill is cleared), just yell over your shoulder ?Hey (name) thanks! Be careful and come back, OK??

15. Study any bartender?s book on mixed libations carefully, but it?s just as important to watch your co-workers mix drinks. It is a craft that can be learned from experience. If anyone requests a drink that might be from their local area, or by a name you are not familiar with, don?t be ashamed to say ?Hey, I don?t know it but I?ll make it right now. Teach me!? They will usually be proud to.

Some bars are just crazy some nights, or are just always that way, and you might be one of four or five bartenders with very little time to employ some of these techniques, especially with loud music or live bands. I know, I have worked in them as well but, even so, you will have brief moments when you can utilize these suggestions and, believe me, they will pay off. Even with multiple and busy bartending situations, customers will seek you out, try to sit near where you are working and, when you aren?t working, they will ask when you are going to be working next.

By the way, once you have a ?following,? changing jobs is easy!

Bartending is a fun, interesting and lively job! I have made up to $50,000 a year bartending as a second job!

Find a place you enjoy living, a bar you like and ENJOY work for a change!

Bartending Pro Tips Part 1:

2009-04-25T04:45:00.000-07:00

In a bar, you will find an interesting and diverse community of people who will seek out fine bartending, not only for the relaxation and camaraderie, but also for a familiar and comfortable environment where they are recognized and accepted. For many people, in this competitive and aggressive world, a bar may be a sole source of sustenance for those basic things that are so essential to us all as humans. We are, after all, social beings.

Who doesn't recall an episode of the television series "Cheers" when every time one of the leading characters would walk in, the entire bar would erupt in the chorus of "Hey Norm?"

Few of us are entitled to such a universal form of recognition and instant acceptance from bar patrons, but an excellent bartender can provide almost the same sort of experience for customers.

I bartended to work my way through both undergraduate and graduate school, and have gone back to it several times when I grew weary of corporate life. The money (if you do it right) is about the same anyway, and, admittedly, it is tiring and demanding, like any job, but it is a heck of a lot more fun!

Every bar is different in its nature and appeal (strip bar vs. a restaurant's cocktail lounge), so this is not a "one size fits all" but, for the most part, if you follow these few words of advice, you can make it both enjoyable and very profitable!

1. Welcome all of your customers as though you know them and introduce yourself. Remember their names and welcome them, using their names, the next time they visit. (Keep a legal pad if you need too, "gray beard, thick glasses, name George, drinks Bud"...and any quirks you can note that will help you recall. Failing that just say "Hey good to see you again!" Just think of it like if you were having a party in your own home.. It's easy!

2. Always keep in mind what their drink of choice is and be prepared to offer them their preference. You should already know the names and preferences of your regulars.

3. If a customer comes accompanied by a date or companion, treat them both as if they are royalty, address the customer as in "Wonderful to see you again, Mr. or Ms so and so (if they are a regular). And what can I do especially for your guest?" Be sure to use the finest glass for their friend. If you treat them with that sort of respect, you cannot only expect a nice tip, but you can bet that they will be back over and over, and looking for you.

4. Yes, do remember jokes. Remember them when you hear them and study them on the Internet. Internet jokes are so boring that most of us just delete them, but ahhh...the telling of a joke is just that, it is the delivery and the story telling that makes it both interesting and amusing. Be prepared to have at least two new ones on every shift.

5. Your smile and your obvious enjoyment of both your job and your customers are worth a lot more than tossing bottles about or doing circus tricks. If you can do it, well it doesn't hurt, but most folks are there for a drink, company and the respect and recognition that they don't receive in day-to-day life.

6. Depending on the policy of your employer, when customers come in for the first time, and have just one beer while reading the newspaper or looking around, and then start to leave, slide them a free beer/drink and say "I am glad that you came in and I have enjoyed your company," (calling them by name, of course). "My name is so and so, and please do come back." Pay for that beer/drink out of your tips if you must; you will get it back, ten-fold.

7. Remember that these are customers. They are not really your buddies, so stay professional.

8. Though you will have many opportunities for intimate encounters, stay focused on your career and that you are there to make a living. Don't ever forget that "one night stands" are never just that in the bartending world; the customer you became close with will likely be sitting on the other side of the bar, within a few days, regardless of how much you regret that moment.

Bartending with Style

2009-04-02T23:44:00.000-07:00

As opposed to the other food service careers, bartending is one job where personal style counts the most. The best bartenders I've known always have a personality to them, and some even have a little edge of attitude. Always remember that the whole point of your job is recreation.

The best bartenders are good conversationalists. Have a joke or two ready. Read up on the news daily before your shift, so you'll be able to keep up chat on sports, politics, and business.

Working in America, don't stress so much over knowing really complex drinks. About half of your orders will be for domestic beer, anyway. The non-beer orders will be something simple like a shot or a simple mixed drink like a vodka-and-coke. If somebody orders something really complicated, do your best to get it as close as you can and serve it. Bar etiquette nearly demands that the customer accepts whatever you pour as your version of what they ordered, and anybody who is enough of a troublemaker to ask for a Long-Island Iced Tea when you're slammed busy with a full bar generally deserves whatever you put in their glass, and probably wouldn't know the difference anyway.

Some environments to avoid: A bartender can get work nearly anywhere in the world that allows alcohol, so you might as well be picky about where to work. You can work where you want, it's your career and a matter of personal taste, but if I were you I'd avoid working in these places if I could help it:

Night clubs, rave clubs, or anyplace that requires a bouncer and caters to a young crowd. Loud music, rowdy customers, frequent fights, dumb kids trying to fake their ID on you. Additionally, young adults aren't civilized enough yet to know how to behave in a bar, can't hold their liquor, and don't tip worth anything.

Big commercial chain "McBars". I don't want to name names, but any place that advertises on TV is about as far from a real bar as you can get and still serve liquor. Especially if it's solid ferns and oak inside and caters to the yuppie crowd. These places tend to draw featherweight drinkers and have no personality to them, plus you'll have an uptight management hierarchy over your head every minute.

Gambling bars or sports bars. Generally, any place with slot machines built into the table or giant screen TVs that are always on and turned all the way up just aren't worth much. There's too much distraction from the serious business of drinking and developing a warm relationship with the bartender which will result in a thoughtful tip. Anyplace where the focus is to encourage the customer to never make eye contact with you is deadening to work at, since you might as well be a robot for all anybody cares. The exception is if the bar is actually in a casino or hotel or has an actual live band. At least there people are likely to stay a while.

How to do all the tricks: Get yourself a mixology pocket guide and keep it on you to avoid having to memorize every bizarre drink. But never let the customer see you checking it - keep it in a drawer or cupboard, or act like you had to go in the back room for a second.

Glassware: Many drinks are specific to the kind of glass; at the very least get the glass right. Keep one towel for drying and another for polishing. A stemmed glass should be used for cocktails with no ice, so that the drink will not be warmed by the hand holding the glass.

How to chill a glass: Either put the glass in a refrigerator or fill it with cracked, shaved or crushed ice before mixing. When the drink is ready, empty the ice out of the glass.

How to frost a glass: For frosted drinks a glass should be stored in the freezer or buried in shaved ice. To 'sugar frost' a glass, wet the rim of a previously chilled glass with a slice of lemon or lime and then dip the rim into powdered sugar.

Ice: You'll use lots of ice; cubed, cracked, crushed or shaved. Always put the ice in the mixer before pouring the drink; this way the liquids are chilled as they flow over the ice and there is no splashing. For stirring or shaking use cracked or cubed ice, and for specialty drinks crushed or shaved ice.

Sugar: As with ice, put the sugar in the mixing glass before the liquor. Usually powdered sugar is used because it dissolves quickly in alcohol at low temperatures.

How to stir: Drinks containing liquor and ingredients require stirring with ice for proper mixing. When using carbonated drinks make sure to stir gently to preserve their fizz. Too little stirring fails to mix the drink, while too much melts the ice and ruins the drink. Also, to stir a drink containing ice cubes, poke the ice a few times; this will evenly mix any and all liquors.

How to shake: Often drinks containing fruit juices, sugar, cream or other ingredients are difficult to mix -- these should be given a quick shake. When a drink requires frothiness use a blender.

Using a strainer: Always use a metal strainer - the kind which clips to the edges of the mixing glass.

Pouring: When mixing the same cocktail for a group of people, make all the drinks in one batch in a pitcher. So that no one drink is stronger or weaker than the rest set up the glasses in a row and fill each glass only halfway, then go back and finish each one off.

How to float liquor: To make one liquor float on top of another in the same glass pour each ingredient slowly over a teaspoon held bottom side up in the glass. The teaspoon will spread the liquor evenly over the one below without mixing the two. Be sure to pour the ingredients in the right order, always adding liquids in order of descending density.

Flaming Liquor: The trick to flaming liquor - rum, gin, brandy, or whiskey - is to make sure that the glass and the liquor have both been warmed. Fill a teaspoon or tablespoon with liquor of choice, heat over a flame and then set it afire. Pour the flaming liquid into the remaining liquor to light the drink.

Online Bartending School compared to standard bartending school

Online Bartending School compared to standard bartending school

I have attended regular bartending school "in an actual cocktail lounge" and I must say that I learned more from the online bartending school I attended a year later, than I ever did in "the actual cocktail lounge".

Online Bartending School allows you to have the information at your fingertips at all times. There is a lot more information and you actually learn how to set everything up for yourself. You will not have to spend the $500-$1000 tuition too.

The online bartending school experience allows you to move at your own pace and you can actually learn tips like how to find a job faster, how to earn larger tips, and you can even take advanced classes to learn how to manage a bar.

The regular bartending school was a great experience and they found me my first few private party bartending jobs, but when I went to class online and at my own pace, I learned how to find my own jobs easily.

I also learned a lot of little tricks that make me more tips than I could ever imagine. I love bartending and I am very happy with my choice to begin bartender. The choice wasn't easy for me, so I attended both online bartending school and regular bartending school. Here are 3 reasons to save your tuition money and participate in online bartending school.

Reason #1 - You can work at your pace

When I took the regular bartending school classes I had to keep up with my teacher and if I fell behind that was just too bad. They cram everything into 2 weeks of training and you don't get trained unless you move with the class.

Also if you are a fast learner you will get bored. They move at an average rate so if you are a fast learner you will spend more time goofing off, then learning. This is not a good thing. You need to be able to move at your own speed or you are going to be stuck behind or ahead.

Reason #2 - You will save hundreds of dollars

When you attend online bartending school you will be able to save hundred of dollars on your tuition. Online studies cost about $50-$100, plus about $75 in supplies to learn with. The offline classes cost at minimum $500 and at maximum $1,500 plus you have to buy supplies for about $75 as well. Save your money and go with online bartending school.

Reason #3 - You will have more skills from online bartending school

I never learned how to find a good bartending job from the regular school. Sure they found a job or two for me, but they were one night jobs. The online bartending school taught me how to get an interview, how to interview, and how to find the actual job and land it. This is a much more useful skill.

There you have three great reasons to choose online bartending school over regular bartending school. Take it from someone with experience, online is better.

Online bartender guide - Your guide to a better job bartending

I am about to give you my 3 top secrets to my success as a bartender. I have been bartending for 5 years now and after a little trial and error I have came up with a way to get the best bartending jobs and to maintain the highest income possible in my field. Secret #1 - Take full pride in your work

People can sense when you don't want to be at a job or when you don't care about your job. You have to take pride in your job, especially as a bartender. You need to keep your area clean and clutter free, and you need to make sure that all of your customers are taken care of to the best of your abilities.

When you truly take care of people they will reward you with bigger tips. Even the non tipper will be forced to tip you out of guilt. This is one of my biggest secrets and it really is not a secret, but because everybody has forgotten about working hard it seems like a secret.

Secret #2 - You have to be persistent and consistent in your job search

The first key to finding a job bartending is to have the skills. If you don't have the skills go to an online training site and get them. The second key is to be persistent. It takes time and effort to get in at the best bars and clubs, but the payoff is huge. Don't be afraid to show up on a daily or weekly basis to ask for an interview.

You also need to be consistent and always keep your eyes and ears open for bartending positions. Even if you love the place you work and you are making good money job offers can serve as leverage for a raise or for more top shifts. This is how I have worked my way into the most profitable bartending shifts and have been able to get more raises.

Secret #3 - You have to be honest and hold yourself to the highest integrity

It is important to understand that being honest as a bartender is hard, but very necessary. Bartenders are labeled as thieves, sluts, and alcoholics almost automatically. Over time you will be able to diminish these thoughts from your manager. Stay honest and you will always get good reviews from your former employers.

There are the top three secrets that I have used to build up my worth as a bartender. Begin building your bartending worth by getting the proper training and using these secrets. With the proper training and these secrets you can expect larger tips and a better hourly rate or salary.

Get the training you need to be a bartender, find the best bartending jobs, and make the largest tips. Go here for my bartending secrets:

Bartender for hire - How to land your perfect bartending job

2009-03-12T04:15:00.000-07:00

Bartender for hire - How to land your perfect bartending job

Are you a bartender, but sick of working crappy little jobs behind restaurant bars and small bars that don't pay very well? Here is the fastest way to land the bartending job that you have always wanted.

The first thing you need to have is an attitude that you are going to get hired and you are the best. Bartenders don't want to take chances on bartenders that they are not sure of. They want someone they know or have built a trust with. Don't be afraid to be a bar back or a server for a little while first, as long as your manager understands that you are going to be the next bartender.

The second thing you need is a never quit attitude. When you go out looking for a new bartending job you have to visit many locations and really put yourself out there. You need to go back to the place you apply and ask for interviews. It is harder to get turned down in person than over the phone.

The last thing you need to know is that you have to ask for a tryout. Sometimes when you ask for a tryout you can get one or two shifts to show your stuff. Make sure you show your stuff and prove that you deserve the job.

When you are looking for a bartending job these are a few things to remember. Also don't waste your time looking in the paper because bartending jobs are rarely advertised. Get out there and start looking for that job.

Get the bartending job you have always dreamed of and start making over $300 a shift. Get more information here:

Bartending for Dummy - 5 Keys to success behind a bar

Bartending for Dummy - 5 Keys to success behind a bar

Have you always wondered how it would be to make an extra few hundred dollars behind a bar each week? I have spent the last 5 years living as a bartender as I attend and finish college, and I must say it is going to be hard to give up the money. I am here to help you get behind a bar and make a generous CASH salary like I have, and may continue to do.

HERE is my Bartending for Dummy keys to success.

Key #1 - You must learn to be a people person

This is a skill that is not taught, but more or less learned with experience. You have to become a real people person behind a bar. It is important to sustain a great income on slower nights. You will make bigger tips when you show a general interest in your customer, and when there are only a few of them it is a great way to squeeze the maximum tips out of each one of them.

Key #2 - Learn how to go from conversationalist to drink maker

When you start a bartending shift and it happens to be slow you can get to know your customers and converse with them a little, but when it picks up you have to know how to shut that off, nicely, and become a drink maker. This is the one thing I have seen over and over that average bartenders lack. Learn to do the balancing act and your regulars will love you along with everybody else, which means bigger tips.

Key #3 - Become as fast as possible by ignoring the idiots

This can include servers, other bartender, managers, and customers; you cannot allow them to get to you. When someone gets in your way go around then. When someone complains fix it and move on. Most importantly when that ignorant manager tries to help, let them pour beer or pop open beers, but make sure they are not doing any more than they can handle.

You have to balance this and keep a smile on your face or you will become aggravated and your income will suffer. It is so important that you ignore comments and keep moving when it is busy. Remember, the more drinks you make the more money your pocket will be filled with at the end of the night.

Key #4 - Learn what your regulars drink

There is nothing more impressive than walking into a bar for the third or forth time and the bartender already has my drink in front of me. Even if I switch it up and don't always drink the same thing, I appreciate it and I will drink it. When a person is remembered they feel important and closer to the person that remembered them. This will gain you friends and tips, I guarantee it. Key #5 - Know how to fake a drink

If you get an order for something weird, but you know what the color is suppose to be or kind of what it is, fake it. Throw something together that is close and most likely the customer will love it and thank you for knowing the drink they ordered. This happens a lot and maybe one out of a hundred ever complain.

There you have it future bartenders, my 5 secrets to success behind a bar. I have made a handsome income over the past 5 years bartending and you can too. I have paid my tuition, books, housing, and been able to do my fair share of partying, all from bartending. There is a lot of money to be made all you have to do is get the training and get to work.

Learn how to become one of your area's finest bartenders. Follow the link below to earn bigger tips, learn all the tricks of bartending, and for more secrets to increasing your income with bartending by landing that perfect job.

How To Guide to bartending

Bartending tip - The best way to increase your income

2009-02-23T02:30:00.000-08:00

Bartending tip - The best way to increase your income

If you are a bartender or have thought about becoming one you will want to write me a thank you letter at the end of this article. I am about to give you the number one bartending tip that will increase your income by more than double.

Ok so I lied I am actually going to give you 3 major tips, but you will still be amazed. I encourage you to use these tips and share them, that is the only way they will ever make you more money.

Tip #1 - Empty the ashtrays all the time

There is a specific order behind the bar and it goes as follows: Make drinks for your customers and servers, check your bar for food orders and refills, empty ashtrays, restock, and everything else. There are only two things more important than emptying ashtrays and that is making drinks and taking food orders.

I go by a rule of thumb, one butt (cigarette butt), two butts, my butt. If there is ever 3 cigarette butts in an ashtray on my bar it is a horrible night and my income will reflect it. Smokers appreciate having a clean ashtray and they notice. You will be rewarded with compliments and cash.

Tip #2 - Don't ask bar customers if they want another drink just get them one

This especially applies to regular customers and beer drinkers, when someone is about ? full on their drink and they have not asked you for a check or made any movement like they are planning to leave, get them another drink. You will get two reactions, either they will think you are buying it for them, which happens and you just kindly remind them that they looked thirsty and you are trying to do the best job for them possible, or two they will be amazed at your service. Either way your tip is going to rock

Tip #3 - Don't ever refuse to give a customer a water or anything else non alcoholic at closing, especially if they seem drunk

Yes they may have already tipped you for that night, but refusing to serve them water or something else that is non alcoholic will hurt your tip next time around, if they ever come back. This has happened to me as a patron and I don't go back to that place. If your customer seems intoxicated or even if they don't it is in yours and the bars best interest to let them sit and sober up a bit with water while you clean and close down.

This will save you from an unnecessary lawsuit from a drunken driving accident. Plus next time they come in they will remember the favor you did for them and thank you with a nice tip.

These three tips can bring you more cash than you ever thought possible as a bartender. There is nothing better than giving the best service to a not so good tipper and making them feel so guilty that they personally thank you and leave you more than they would normally leave. Try these out and you will make more money.

Learn even more great tips for increasing your sales, tips, and your income from behind the bar or as a server. You can actually double your income, think about that for a second! Go to the following site for more information:

Think about it this way, you make 5 drinks per minute and make a dollar per drink. That is $5 a minute. If you could make 10 (I can whip out 14 a minute by the way, no beer included) you could make $10 a minute.

Third, it is important that a bartender keep up no current events and sports. These are topics of discussion that customers will bring up and when you are slow you can make your money by better quality tips from your customers. I have gotten some great conversation tips and sometimes you can make up for the lack of business with great conversation.

Last, a bartender needs to learn how to be creative enough to create new drinks. By creating new drinks you can wow your customers and make your bar and yourself a ton of money at the same time.

Yes, that is right, you will already be pegged as a bad employee. You have to prove yourself and that takes time.

The second thing you need in order to find a great bartending job is persistence. You have to be able to go into bars and clubs with the attitude that they need you and will be giving you a job.

You have to know that if the bar manager or owner is willing to give you a tryout that you will run circles around their bartenders.

How To Get a Bartending Job

2009-01-15T01:40:00.000-08:00

Glamour, limitless earning potential and opportunities of mingling with who's who of the society adduce a number of youngsters to the job of bartending. But unfortunately enough, many of them are uninformed of the ways how to get started in the bartending profession.

Landing with a bartending job may be either too tough or too easy. As someone said, you need 1% ability and 99% personality to become a bartender. It is after all a show business and you must have the ability to impress with your personality to find out a job of a bar tender. You might have been to top hotel management schools to learn the secrets of drink recipes, but if you do not possess a pleasing personality, you are not likely to perceive the bar manager in the interview. In addition to the personality, you need to show some other tricks to land with a profitable job offer in this engaging area of bar management.

Where should you look for a bartending job? Why not check with the job consultants to look for a vacancy? Also go through the classified and specialized job advertisement sections to find advertisement seeking bar tenders. You can also start locally; just make some enquiries in the bars or restaurants in your locality to get a break. Also post your resume in the top job sites on the internet to find a suitable job. And lastly, join a reputed bartending school and select an institution that have a proven record of placement in the reputable organizations. You will get a list of bartender schools in your area from the yellow pages or from the Internet.

Leave your resume with reputed establishments. Make sure your resume is free of errors, misspellings, or cross outs. If you have given any references, inform the persons in question about the referral beforehand, because the referrals are always cross checked.

Here are some tips to help you get through the interview for the position of the bartender: As like all other professions, in the bar tending job also you have to be punctual and courteous. Bartenders have to appear as gracious host and treat the clientele not as mere customers, but coveted guests. So cordiality and positive body language is regarded as special qualities of bartenders. A firm hand shake, eye contact and attentiveness during interview will help you to impress your interviewer. Don't shy away from discussing various aspects of the job with the interviewer with regard to salary, working hour and so on; it only reflects on your professionalism. Don't assume that a radical look flaunting body jewelry or shocking attire etc will help to get you a bar tending job. It is your skill that matters at the end, so appear for the interview in formal attire to impress the interviewer. Last of all, remember you will get the chance once to make the first impression and therefore what you need is to wear a confident, poised, & professional look throughout the interview.

While you get your dream job, do not get stagnant, always try to forge new contacts, upgrade your skills and look out to make further advancement in your bartending career.

Bartending: Building a Foundation For a Profitable and Rewarding Career

2008-10-21T23:16:00.000-07:00

Dating back thousands of years, bartending began as a trade by those who produced liquor and, in turn, sold it to the public. This was not only a profitable venture for these early bartenders, but provided a product in huge demand by the public. Historically, humans have always had a fondness for spirits, which is an enormous benefit to those pursuing a bartending career. Prohibition makes a very clear case that people want their drinks, and demand is not quashed by the absence of product.

Very few careers can offer you virtually guaranteed placement in literally any place you wish to live and work in the world. Most bartenders, in fact, earn more than entry-level college graduates, with some eventually earning six- figure incomes.

Becoming a successful bartender takes more than just learning to spin drink recipes. The professional bartender is well-versed on the legal and business ramifications of alcohol management and service. Today's bartenders are a breed apart, savvy and knowledgeable performers in a fast-paced exciting environment. Simply put, there is no aspect more vital to a professional bartending career than the foundation built by a quality bartending school. Bartending schools provide more than just preparation; they directly affect how much you earn, from your very first day on the job. Some certifications, such as TIPS ? (Training for Intervention Procedures or TAM ? (Techniques in Alcohol Management) are required, by law, in many states.

Given the earning potential bartending offers as a career, the cost of attending a quality bartending school becomes a wise investment rather than an expense. Most bartending schools are very affordable, require very little time (as little as two weeks), and can be found in nearly every state in the country. Bartending-World.com offers a state-by-state listing of reputable bartending schools that makes selecting a school a breeze. When selecting a bartending school, make sure to ask these questions, and be leary of those who cannot offer answers.

What is the schools' industry reputation and how long has it been in business? Look for a school well-recognized in the bartending education industry. Many schools have a long history, making research easy.

What are the size of the classes and how well-equipped are they? Look for low teacher-to-student ratios and facilities that mimic actual working environments, as closely as possible.

Is the bartending school licensed by the state? What credentials are required for the instructors? Verifying that a school is actually licensed by the state, in which it teaches, is important. Find out what they look for when they hire instructors. Instructors, if well-chosen, are industry vets who can provide invaluable insight into the bartending industry.

Can you be given references of graduates who are working in the industry? What is the bartending school's job placement policy? Any reputable school will have working graduates who will endorse the school. If not, you need to be careful. A successful job placement plan is always indicative of a good training facility. If local bars have had success with hiring quality graduates then you can rest assured that school is worth a second look.

Bartending offers a rewarding and profitable career for those who are serious about their pursuit. While there is a lot of hard work involved, the excitement and fun of the atmosphere is hard to beat. Investing in a quality education will put you on the fast track to maximized earnings in bartending.

Bartending School Is Just The Beginning

2008-10-14T03:43:00.000-07:00

While you may be thinking about attending bartending school, keep in mind that a bartending career is not all fun and games.

Bartenders work hard, and are often paid minimum wage. Working at a top club will, of course, up your take-home pay in the form of tips (sometimes as much as thousands per night), but you'll have to do your time and gain experience at smaller clubs and bars first. Initially, you'll also work the less crowded shifts. Some bars and clubs even require new bartenders to work as barbacks first - this means you'll be schlepping beer and liquor from the storage room to the bar, washing glasses and cleaning up. Not nearly as glamorous as you might have dreamed. As a barback, you'll earn a portion of the bartender's tips for the night.

The hours are often long, you're on your feet the whole time and might have to deal with a lot of rude customers. Aside from that, once you've moved up in the ranks and have the popular, crowded shifts - those that you make the most money with - you'll never have Friday or Saturday nights free. You'll be working.

If you still are thinking about attending bartending school, make sure you pick a reputable organization. You can also attend bartending school online. Many bartending schools offer job placement assistance one you finish your courses - if you don't have a job lined up already, you'll want help finding one.

The best bartenders have an outgoing personality, are patient and tolerant of customers who may have had one too many and are able to multitask and work under pressure. Remember, you'll be on a virtual stage once behind the bar, with a lot of eyes watching you!

Once you've completed bartending school and started your first job, know that you will make mistakes. It's your ability to recover from them with grace and humor that will keep you going.

Attending bartending school is just the beginning of a potentially fun and profitable career. But know ahead of time that bartending is a lot of work!

12. When you have time, spend time talking with your customers. Don't sit on a stool sipping a coke and obviously trying to find some time alone, even if you are "on break." You can be on break at home. Talk news, talk about local folks and interesting places, but more importantly try and get them talking about what is important to them. They aren't in a library, they are in a bar, and maybe they want to talk, a lot more than be talked to. It's easy to walk away when you get busy; they can wait and, if they can't, start gauging their intoxication level.

14. If that moment isn't available, because you are otherwise involved, when you see them rise to leave (and you are sure the bill is cleared), just yell over your shoulder "Hey (name) thanks! Be careful and come back, OK?"

15. Study any bartender's book on mixed libations carefully, but it's just as important to watch your co-workers mix drinks. It is a craft that can be learned from experience. If anyone requests a drink that might be from their local area, or by a name you are not familiar with, don't be ashamed to say "Hey, I don't know it but I'll make it right now. Teach me!" They will usually be proud to.

Some bars are just crazy some nights, or are just always that way, and you might be one of four or five bartenders with very little time to employ some of these techniques, especially with loud music or live bands. I know, I have worked in them as well but, even so, you will have brief moments when you can utilize these suggestions and, believe me, they will pay off. Even with multiple and busy bartending situations, customers will seek you out, try to sit near where you are working and, when you aren't working, they will ask when you are going to be working next.

By the way, once you have a "following," changing jobs is easy!

Bartending is a fun, interesting and lively job! I have made up to $50,000 a year bartending as a second job!

Find a place you enjoy living, a bar you like and ENJOY work for a change!

Who doesn't recall an episode of the television series "Cheers" when every time one of the leading characters would walk in, the entire bar would erupt in the chorus of "Hey Norm?"

Few of us are entitled to such a universal form of recognition and instant acceptance from bar patrons, but an excellent bartender can provide almost the same sort of experience for customers.

2. Always keep in mind what their drink of choice is and be prepared to offer them their preference. You should already know the names and preferences of your regulars.

7. Remember that these are customers. They are not really your buddies, so stay professional.

9 Tips For Getting Started Ballroom Dancing

2008-07-06T23:16:00.000-07:00

Learning to dance is fun and it is easy. In a sense it is like learning a new language, a language in which moods and emotions are expressed in movement; a language of rhythm, grace and harmony. It is new, but in a very real sense it is the oldest language in the world, for dancing is the oldest form of art.

Dancing is a wholesome, natural outlet for the emotions. It develops grace and poise, timing and balance. Men take pride in their ability to lead their partners with assurance and poise. Ladies enjoy the ability to follow their partners smoothly, expertly and correctly. The ability to dance develops personality, and above all?it is fun.

Taking dance lessons is a great way to improve your confidence, it is a way to get fit and did I mention they?re fun?

And It?s Easier Than You Think?

1. Do you want to, learn to dance professionally, learn to dance for pleasure? It is important to know what you want to achieve before you start.

Perhaps you want to learn to get fit, for a social occasion or to meet new friends. Plus if you know what you want to get out of it this helps your instructor.

Lots of people start with social dancing. Social dancing classes are great places to learn ballroom dancing. A small percentage of social dancers later find that their love of dance compels them to become competitive dancers. Social dances normally start with a one-hour dance lesson and it is normally possible to find weekly group dance lessons especially for beginners.

2. If you want to find out what is involved in dancing before you commit to lessons, or there are no good teachers locally, consider a dance video. You can watch it at your leisure, plus watch it as many times as you like to aid learning. A good video will help you practice once you start lessons.

3. Dancing provides great social benefits but also participating in ballroom dancing on a regular basis will produce significant mental and physical health benefits. Dancing is a great stress reliever. It builds confidence, alertness and good attitude. It also has been proven to have a great physical benefit as it physically tones the whole body in enjoyable exercise.

Dancing can be a fun way to lose weight and get into shape. Just check out the potential for burning calories ? Burn 309 calories with just one hour of Ballet, Tap or Freestyle, 290 calories with Country Line Dancing or Swing and 193 calories with the Waltz.

When choosing a dance studio you want to choose one that is conveniently located to your home or work place. If you can get there easier you will keep going and repetition is the key to quick learning. Not sure if you want to learn? Some nightclubs or studios hold introductory lessons. A number of websites have a dance studio locator, so that you can find studios local to you.

In addition these sites have lots of free instructional material. Check out a few different dance studios. Most dance studios will offer group and private lessons. Look for studios offering a mixture of the two. How many teachers do they have? Do they have an introductory offer?

You may also find ballroom dance classes at local colleges and many city or county recreational departments include ballroom dance classes. Some organizations such as the YWCA, Community Centers, Elks or Moose Lodges offer dance lessons to their members and guests.

4. Find out about the different dance styles before you start lessons and see which ones you want to learn. Plus you?ll be more knowledgeable about the style and rhythm of the different dances before you start classes.

Don?t forget to get my free book that covers the basics of ballroom dancing, details at the end of these tips.

5. Do you need a partner to start ballroom dancing? No. Lots of classes accept singles. If you already have a partner then you can have fun learning together.

6. Should you have private lessons or group classes? This depends on your preference and your budget. As a beginner you may prefer the privacy of individual tuition and certainly you will learn quicker, they can also be useful if you have missed some group classes and do not want to get left behind or you feel that you need extra tuition. However when starting out consider the social aspect of group learning which most people find stimulating, challenging and lots of fun. Group classes are also less expensive.

7. There are no special clothes for social dancing, except that they need to be comfortable and give you freedom to move. However for learning professional ballroom dancing you may find that exercise clothing is more appropriate, ask your instructor if you are unsure. When choosing shoes think about not only appearance but also comfort, support and protection.

8. Selecting your instructor is an important decision and you want to ensure that your instructor has professional qualifications. Obtain a copy of their resume for professional examinations and their experience in teaching beginners. The United States Amateur Ballroom Dancers Association will be able to advise you further.

9. Finally, just in case you didn?t get the message before ? have fun! Learning a new skill can and should be fun, that way you?ll stick at it and before you know where you are you have mastered it!

Bartending - More Than A Great Career

2008-06-30T05:06:00.000-07:00

Bartending, Not Only a Great Career If you go to a bar, club, or wedding functions, you will see plenty of people trying to get the bartenders attention. After all, he or she will be doling out those wonderful concoctions that make the party much more of a fun experience. You might wonder, how difficult is it to be behind the bar? The answer to that question is not that difficult at all.

Many people don't realize that there is no magic to bartending. I have to admit that if you would like to do drink tricks such as seen in cocktail or a snazzy upscale bar then there is plenty to practice and learn. But if you want to make a great drink for friends or even work at your local bar or club, you can be behind the bar in no time.

What many people don't recognize is that bartending is mainly about presentation. There are many drinks available but depending on your friends or your clientele, there are less than about 100 that you will need to know. Most bartenders know much more, just in case, but for the large majority 100 drinks would be pretty good. In most bars, there's always a recipe guide in case of a special request.

Besides learning the basics of pouring mixing and shaking and types of liquors and ingredients, the real talent is putting all this together and delivering a seemingly perfect drink. It really isn't that difficult. There are plenty of bartending schools that charge about $300 to $700 for classes. But for most people interested in bartending it's usually not necessary. Many bartenders learn there trade by recipe books, bartending guides, and being around the bar and other bartenders. So for a great career or hobby, not to mention a great way to impress a girl or guy, take a look at bartending.
