There are over 65,000 venues with bars nationwide. That means plenty of jobs, plenty of shifts, and plenty of hours. Best of all, the most important factor in controlling how much you earn is YOU – your skill, your smile, your personality!

There’s no limit to the possibilities...but many bartenders go on to earn up to $300 per night!

First there were celebrity chefs getting attention and being superstars with their own magazines and TV shows and the reputations to make a restaurant hot overnight.

Today, mixologists are gaining that same star power, creating new drinks that get buzz, attract followers, and earn them huge tips!

The cocktail business is historically more resistant to ups and downs in the economy than other fields.

Whether times are great and the bar scene is thriving, or the economy is tight and going out at night is a treat people can afford, bars and clubs always seem to hold their own.

No mistake, bartending is a job. And many nights you’ll get home in the wee hours and flop into bed exhausted.

But while you’re working, the time zips by, with fun people in good moods, looking great, laughing hard and appreciating your efforts!
