Learn from Top Professional Bartenders
Start of a Bartending Career
Fifteen years ago, the athletic club I belonged to opened
a beer and wine bar and I was offered a job as bartender.
Little did I know that first shift would change my life.
Overnight, I went from retail sales of office products making
a minimal wage to pulling in $200 cash in a six-hour shift.
I even remember standing outside the bar that night thinking, “How
did I miss this for so long?”
I knew I wanted to serve liquor and enrolled in a two-week
bartending school (more about that later). With-in six months,
I was bartending at a busy hotel in downtown Atlanta, making
great money with full-benefits. I even had travel benefits
to stay for free in hotels around the world and a flexible
schedule so I could enjoy it.
 Since
then, I’ve worked everything from sporting events,
live music shows, theater events, weddings and private parties.
I’ve worked in fine dining restaurants and high volume
nightclubs and my guests have ranged from Bjorn Borg to Garth
Brooks. I’ve had a chance to travel extensively, complete
my college education, meet great people and have a lot of
fun.
In this video, I'll share with you the lessons I've learned
over the years. Whether you're just interested in the world
of bartending or about to take your first step to a new career,
I believe you will find this the most complete and accurate
bartending video available.

What About Bartending School?
The 90-minute bartending school is a complete bartending course. It is a
full ninety minutes of visual demonstrations that you can watch over and over
in the comfort of your home.
Be careful of bartending schools that offer a certification. Regardless of what
they want you to believe NO CERTIFICATION is needed or desired as a bartender.
Presenting a certification to a potential employee only demonstrates how green
you are. Want proof? Go talk to five of your favorite bartenders about bartending
school and certifications. They will tell you the same thing. Bartending is learned
by practice.
Many states, however, do require an alcohol awareness class. This is entirely
different from a class teaching bartending skills and drink recipes. If your
state requires this class, your employer will generally send you AFTER you
get a job. Again, this is NOT a certification and is NOT available through
bartending school. NO CERTIFICATION IS REQUIRED to begin bartending.
Bartending School is the right choice for some people. If you have the extra
money and need someone to motivate you to practice, attend a bartending school
(stay away from the online bartending schools unless you have the extra money
to blow).
If you want to save a few hundred dollars and gain a more well-rounded education,
then the 90-minute bartending school is the clear choice. The video includes
all the visual demonstrations, practice techniques, and factual information
you will get in a bartending school, plus tricks, techniques and memorization
tips that can only be learned by the combined 50+ years of experience behind
this video. And, its yours to keep and continue to learn from.
The 90-minute Bartending School is the most accurate and complete bartending
video available.
