You do a jug and split it between skimpies. It's waitressing work and you get about 6-8 shows, but in kal, they're worth $500 a pop! In your pocket. You ONLY get shows if you go to the porn store and talk to the owner. Otherwise, it's purely waitressing.

From what I hear Gove is nice. You make less but the men are nicer and you get a pool.

Also, make sure your bank is in Kal and get a buuuuunch of coin bags. You will be giving the bank roughly $600 in coins every other day. They will figure out what you're doing in Kal pretty quickly.

Which isn't that big a deal as pretty much all the attractive girls in Kal are Skimpies since nearly every single damn pub there (which there are many) have at least one, two or three working for them :laughing:

I second the coin bags suggestion before you go (or even get more after your first deposit at the bank).

Are they solo xxx shows that is $500 a pop? I'm also guessing it is a "split shift" that you are doing.. 5 hours day/lunch..break..5 hours night/dinner? Argh, why am I asking you.. I could just go to the source now. Silly me.

Also, I'm guessing the porn store in Kal is Brief Encounters huh? Is her name Josey?

Solo xxx shows. I think it's another $100-150 if yo do anal. That's just your standard 30 minute toy.

Not a split shift. 12 hour straight. Half hour dinner break. Maybe that. They took away my breaks the last week. Some of the bosses let you go to do a show if it's not busy and come back later - some make you wait until the end of your shift. Prepare to be EXHAUSTED.

Yup, you got that all right.

They took away your breaks in the last week?! WHAT?! Is that LEGAL? Did Jo (or the Kal contact) know about it? HOW THE HELL ARE YOU EXPECTED TO WORK THAT HARD WITH NO FOOD (no break)? Hmm... that alone has made me re-think the Kal contract (or at least it being a once a year thing similiar to Gove). They make you WORK for you money there huh?

....on the "sheet" I received from the agency it says "You are not permitted to work at any other hotel or private job unless Kel arranges it!" .... was Kel in the know about the shows and it was all okay?

I've worked for/with Josey before. The other times I was in Kal was thanks to her. I must admit that while her contract was "easier" (not as hard working) it was also shit basically. It isn't unheard of for you to be put in one of the "poor/quiet" pubs thus the reason I won't do her contract anymore. Oh, and she also supplies for "The Kambodians" ;) which is also shit.

Just to add to this thread: EVERYONE AVOID GOLD COAST DURING SCHOOLIES EVERY YEAR!
If you want to know the dates to avoid the Gold Coast for work just consult schoolies.com :)

I'm speaking from a "working within a club" point of view. From all accounts (as I make it a habit each year now to skip the Gold Coast during the first two weeks of it since they are the worst IMO), it is still shite for working the clubs. The little fuckers "flood" the strip clubs, with alot of attitude and hardly any money to spend.

You just have to find the ones with money and the right attitude yet it takes alot of persistance in order to find those guys. They do exist, just that you will cop alot of cheap attitude filled yougins during this time. Why should they pay for a stripper? Plenty of the girls "in town" will sleep with them. It's a known fact for Schoolies that it is one of the "easiest" times to get laid for them. Plus they rather spend their money on piss (drinks).

Can you tell I'm not a fan? Even if I wasn't working those two weeks and stayed home... living within Surfers Paradise taught me to loathe this time of year.

Lysondra

Yes they did. No, it was not legal. At all. I asked around and a lot of people were actually offended. Because they took away the break, (which legally has to be 30 minutes per 9 hours ONLY IF they give you food) we also weren't able to order our food. They forgot to get my food about 3x when I was there too. We told the contact, but there wasn't much she could do. Sadly, the employees got the same end of the stick - we were all fucked on it. Remember, I was there during a mjaor holiday; which is why they did it.

i work at the cabaret club in the valley, brisbane, and have been there for 2.5 yrs. They do not take a percentage, we pay a door fee, and declare whatever we want to for tax purposes. the door fee:

$24 sund, mond, tues
$32 wednes
$40 thurs
$64 frid, sat.

there are certain cocktails (non-alcoholic/alcholic) that the customers can buy for you. each time they buy you one of these, you receive a ticket with your name on it. each ticket is worth $8. for every ticket you have, $8 comes off your door fee. extra tickets can be used on other nights.

there is also a part-time fee if you work less than four nights :

$20 wed, thurs
$30 fri, sat

if you only work fri and/or sat, you pay $50/ night instead of part-time fee.

the number of girls working are divided into 3 groups.
each group is allocated onto a particular stage show :

rock, rnb or techno.

each stage show lasts for 20 minutes, so you go on every hour at either the o'clock, twenty-past or twenty-to.

thus you will be sharing the stage with some other girls. you get topless 1st song, nude last song. NO OPEN LEG work on stage is allowed.

we do small lap-dances whilst on stage. $5 for 45 secs t/less, $10 for 1.5 minute t/less, $20 nude 1.5 minutes.

i love working here and there is lots of potential for making good money. if you are ever in town, come say hi. I dance under Skye.

ok you have totally lost me on the house fee's .. hope I am not the only one who is confused ...

GoldCoastGirl
11-06-2007, 09:06 AM
yeah.. usually girls who work LESS nights are charged MORE not the other way around... can you please clarify? Also, I heard that with the mini lap dances it is full contact and touching allowed ? Why would you do that for such small money and not encourage people to get lap dances if they want to touch? Plus if you are going to review a club.. you need to include contact information such as who to contact and the number and/or email address of that person(s) if someone want to work there.

i also heard that cabaret club is having a hard time keeping dancers as so few work there regularly enough...??

knotslippy
11-07-2007, 01:27 AM
ok, as i said, if you work less than 4 nights, you are only working part-time. If you are only working part time, you are required to pay the part-time fee. This is above and beyond the door fee. There are plenty of girls working at the Cab. They do not have a hard time keeping dancers at all.

The $5 dances are touching above the waist (and ass if you dont mind) - no mouth, no g-string area. They go for 30 sec. The concept is based on the notion of giving a customer a chance to see which girl he/she likes to dance with more. If you utilize your time, you can make decent (not to mention easy) money while on your 20 min stage show. This money is a great supplement to private dance money. Say you average $50 on stage. You do 7 stage shows on a thursday. Thats $350 ontop of your private show money.

10 min $50
20 min $70
30 min $100
1 hr $180

If you work hard (even if you dont !) , then there is potential to make good money.

What's the deal up in Mackay? What nights/fees/dance prices/accomidation? How do you book it?

GoldCoastGirl
11-07-2007, 05:52 PM
You have to specify which Mackay contract you are asking about as there are now 3 different Mackay contracts:

* Taylors Hotel - You work 20 hours per week with a 'jug show' at 6.30pm Wed-Fri, accommodation is at the Hotel itself (nice room), airfare included as well. You book for this one via PinUp Promotions www.exoticdancers.com.au

* Delicious Contract - You work various pub venues in Mackay: some you are selling raffles (no tips in raffle sales) or tray service (yay.. tips!) as well as have to be available to be able to do xxx shows. Contact Mild 2 Wild for further information on this one: www.mild2wild.com.au

* Showbar 140 (+ Wilkies) - You work the strip club which is open Tues-Sat. Optional for you to work 3 hours per night topless waitressing. I don't really know alot about this contract as it is the newest of the bunch and I havn't done it yet (tho' plan to do so for the experience) however from what I have heard (thus my information is heresy so I can't validate it as correct as yet)... you don't get a per hour wage with the topless waitressing, it is similar to Biloela where you work for tips and tips only. Plus I heard that the strip club is a percentage club and that they do not hire local girls.

I only know of one agency that supplies for this contract: Catherine's on the Gold Coast. There are supposedly two dancers that work there that are organising all the girls ultimately. So I do not have any real contact information for this contract as yet. I'm working on all that...

Plus isn't the Dry Season "high season" for NT ? So it will mean good money anyway. What I would be interested in hearing back about is whether the impact means the $ went from $3k per week to something like $1500 (half or less than half of what originally might be able to be earnt)?

Gladstone for those interested:

I would love to give Wilkies and Showbar 140 a go in Mackay soon. Just got to work it around my private party work that's all and other plans.

Sydney used to be fabulous a few years back, I cant believe how much it changed!
I dont think theres as much tourism as there was before. 3-4 years ago the city seemed to be jam packed with visitors who were out to have a good time as well as the locals. You could make good money 7 nights a week most of the time with minimal effort. You would hardly believe it now.
I dont think so many Sydneysiders can afford to go out like they used to, and when they do go out they have less money to spend. Some of the clubs went a bit downhill too in various ways which never helps.
I called into Sydney a couple of weeks ago and my old club was still dead. Such a shame.

It's called Showbar140 ... and you have to book a month or two in advance to go up there as it is a popular club. Plus it is possible to make that amount yet not for everyone and not every week. There is showgirl and house girl contracts (similar in style to Honey Pot except no pub work just purely shows for the club). I've posted about it before.. do a search for Mackay.

If anyone wants the contact phone number I have it .. give me a PM.

They will only accept outside of Mackay talent ;)

I can recommend the Gladstone contract as this is my second stint here. Yeah, I came back :laughing: It's a great place to work as there is NOTHING to do here so you will save your money (unless you are a party girl in which case you will easily piss away your money on drinks).

http://mild2wild.com.au/femalestrippers/gladstone.html

I generally make the most money in the strip club personally. Those who know how to sell will always do well as it's an easy sell to a certain extent. Yet just like any other strip club, you will have your cheap-skates and assholes. They do enforce the rules. Management is behind you 100%. This is one of the few decently run strip clubs (management isn't coked out of their heads, etc).

What I especially love about this contract is that it's 100% profit (no fees) at the strip club for contract girls (unlike Mackay at Showbar140 which is a percentage club).

Can anyone tell me about Cheerleaders/Showgirls in Surfers?
I am in Byron Bay, chillaxing for a week before I head up to GC to make some more money

On Sydney, I moved to a club in Kings Cross and enjoyed it there. I made the best money Ive ever made there because I called the shots. I dont mind guys grabbing my boobs, but they gotta tip me $100 if they want to touch me. Either way I win, they either choose not to tip and dont get to touch, or they can touch and I get $100 in my pocket. The club was pretty busy every night of the week, altho I only worked Tues-Fri or Sat. I dont like weekends because its always packed full of young guys with no money. But I was averaging $337 a night there. I worked there for three weeks, 4 nights a week and made $4050.

MsQwerty
06-03-2008, 01:15 AM
^^^Thats great that you made so much! Im pretty sure that any touching is illegal though. Other Sydney clubs would not let that happen as they can (and have) loose their licenses over girls breaking the rules - and its a sackable offense and possibly a legal one if anyone was unlucky. Just putting that there not for you but just so others know that its not the norm and it is regarded as an extra in most Sydney clubs. (Argh, not meaning to sound rude or mean - its just that its illegal in NSW that makes it an extra there, where as in Qld its legal so it isnt. Its stupid that the laws are different from state to state but serious for those who get caught.) I know the club you were at for some reason allows it, so Im not having a personal dig I just would like people to know that they cant rock up to any club in Sydney and do this.

Give me a yell when youre on the coast, Im back here now.
I havent been to Cheerleaders for ages now so Im not sure how it is but I gather its not great due to the number of dancers I know who have left. - On the other hand it might be much better now because so many people have left! (-:

GoldCoastGirl

Just a quick update on the Gladstone contract... if you have a shitty week like I did just past (partly caused by how "tight" some people up here are with their money, partly caused because I had one night at the club where I just wanted to punch someone not be sociable/bubbly thus earnt hardly any money) .... the lower end of the earning scale is $2K.

I don't recommend this contract for those who can't deal with assholes and cheap-skates as, unfortunately, just like anywhere else in Australia there are plenty here in Gladstone.

Whilst saying that, the "regulars" (esp. the 4-7 shift) are great. They will get you to get their drinks each time thus enabling you to get tipped .. plus a few will do barrel dances or else at least recommend you to the other guys enabling you to sell a barrel dance easier :) They can be of immense help if they like you ;)

Overall, just like last time, I found the majority of people aren't really locals that I made my money from (same with all the other girls) within the strip club. The most amount of girls I worked with in the club was 7... since this post (or this week)... two have "retired" (for now, I guess I'll see if they have come out of retirement since this trip when I next come back ;) )... and two were the other contract girls.

No private party work was given to me during this trip. I wouldn't rely on getting any private parties whilst up here - pretty much only the contract work.

Also please note that ( http://mild2wild.com.au/femalestrippers/gladstone.html ) from next week the Rockhampton part of the contract (unfortunately) will no longer be happening as the pub in Rocky has decided to not have "the girls" anymore.

I also highly recommend that you fly in and out of Gladstone if possible as a "driver" to Rockhampton airport may not always be available for you. Thus if a driver isn't available for you for your "leaving" flight, it's only a cheap taxi fare away (Gladstone airport).

If you are not comfortable with touching above the waist (strictly enforced) during lap dances, then come as a "duo" with someone as otherwise you may find it hard to sell private/lap dances within the club.


ETA: Listed on http://mild2wild.com.au/femalestrippers/gladstone.html

we welcome you to use the above prices for non-touching dances and add a little extra tip if the patron would like to touch

I do not recommend this course of action as the majority of people know the prices. You can try, it doesn't hurt to try.. however be prepared for the patrons to pay those minimum amounts for private/lap dances incl. above the waist touching (strictly enforced).

There isn't much mention of some other clubs in Sydney though, I hear Sefton Playhouse (western Sydney) is a good place to make money. You pay a $50 house fee and everything you make after that is yours. Anyone worked there?

Are Showgirls and Bada Bing in Sydney full nude clubs? Are they strictly no touching or are they clubs with "extras" like most others in Kings Cross?

Most people talking about the Sydney clubs are talking about Men's Gallery, Pure Platinum etc. which aren't cash in hand

In re Mackay.

It is not "the" place to be.. it is just like every other strip club. You will have some great nights there and other times crap. Plus be very aware that it is a percentage club. I like Gladstone for the fact that I don't pay a fee to work and keep everything I make :) (due to being a contract girl)

If you do go to Mackay under the showgirl contract, please feel free to give us a "trip report" :)

My advice about Melbourne is to email or ring the clubs before you go to set up an interview. Goldfingers and Dallas Dancers will hire the same day but some of the clubs arent so good about getting back to you. GF has higher house fees than the other clubs and DD is only open 3 nights week (someone told me only 2 now.) I found it quiet when I was there last week but not totally dead. You might wat to check with the melbourne girls to see if the new 2am curfew has made an impact or not too. Hope it works out for you!

GF is still pretty quiet according to some of the girls here. I think everywhere is quiet atm. There are loads of places exempt from lockout, so Im guessing that the cash aill be better there.

If you can get the money together, I highly recommend Darwin at this time of year even with The Honey Pot as the only strip club there now. If you can find your own way there and accommodation then you will be free to work as many nights as you desire plus it is the one place in Australia (that I'm aware) that has no touching allowed in the lap dances.

You even have to keep a distance when topless or nude. Granted, there will always be girls who find ways to "push the envelope" in re the rules... or allow brief touching for extra $$$.

I recommend Darwin only during the Dry Season up there as it is wonderful great weather and there is stuff to see and do outside of the city (take a tour or two)... allow you to experience more than JUST the east coast of this wonderful country.

Melbourne is not the be all and end all of places.. give some of the smaller places (where there is only one strip club) a go such as Townsville, Mackay, Gladstone. Yeah, Gladstone is a hole (BORING!) however it will be a nice cash injection - great for traveling girls.

Cairns is worth a go as well just for the pure fact that you will be able to be amongst plenty of other backpackers.. plenty to see with your dancing money :)

CL is like any club.. theres girls making 800+ a night and there's girls making less than a hundred. It honestly just depends on how hard you work, what you look like and your attitude. Just like any other club...

There's lots of girls competing for a finite amount of customers.

Lysondra
06-10-2008, 08:50 PM
I find the best way to deal with 'tight fists' Vee is to not be so pushy. I've seen you on stage and you're very 'tip me or go away' attitude. I just have fun and flow and pretend like I don't care and I got over $150 in tips the other night in ALREADY PAID WAITRESSING. So I made $150 an hour for topless waitressing.

All it takes is not being so 'everyone here is a cheapskate' attitude, really.

But hey, we have different styles.

GoldCoastGirl
06-10-2008, 10:12 PM
If you're referring to my Gladstone review a few posts up ... they were tight with their money. Doing as you did would not have gotten their money any sooner than what I do. When someone is tight, they are tight. Plus a lot of people are paid fortnightly in Gladstone which doesn't help either.

Whilst we do have different styles, I still make money on stage. Your way is no better than my way. Be aware of that.. and comparing a private party to a strip club is like comparing apples and oranges.

It's not the same.

ellebelle
06-10-2008, 11:39 PM
I worked in Rockhampton for nearly a year. It's not that they're tight, it's just they don't see the point unless someone else is doing it. They're like little lemmings. Before I would get on stage whoever I was sitting with I would feign panic and then tell them "Oh no I'm on stage next, please don't leave me alone up there". So then would they would come over I would give them a REALLY good show on stage.. and then everyone else goes hey.. he's doing it that looks fun. It's small town mentality, they don't want to be the only one doing it for fear of looking like the "perv" or the "deviate".

I agree with Lysondra, if you act like you're all about the money up north it can kind of backfire. It's different to the city.

Well, I worked at Velvet Cigar for two hours. In total the customer paid $390. I walked out with way less than that.. under $300 for the hour and half "work" I did (okay so I didn't actually work.. the money came to me via Lysondra.. thanks girl :-* ;) )....

Let's just say that even this little taste of working in Brisbane is still not enough to convince me to give it a go on a more regular basis unless I am booked as the showgirl for VC. I really can't stand the percentage pay out. It just does me no good psychologically to see that $390 figure and know that I'm walking away with less than $300! :(

No thank you. I'm staying away from clubs with percentages if at all possible.

If you're referring to my Gladstone review a few posts up ... they were tight with their money. Doing as you did would not have gotten their money any sooner than what I do. When someone is tight, they are tight. Plus a lot of people are paid fortnightly in Gladstone which doesn't help either.

Whilst we do have different styles, I still make money on stage. Your way is no better than my way. Be aware of that.. and comparing a private party to a strip club is like comparing apples and oranges.

It's not the same.

I wasn't comparing PP to strip clubs... I work clubs too. And I said myself that our styles were different. :/

I'm not complaining! That extra helped me out as well ;D (not nearly as much as you yet it did).

THANK YOU :-*

I was mainly having a bitch/gripe about the percentage pay out. I really dislike it. I don't feel VC deserved such a high cut. I would have been more than happy to pay them $50 or so and left with over $300 than under $300 for that hour and half.

It was good to see your show at VC as I had no idea what the hell I was allowed to do and everything. I still got tipped and stuff however at least now I'm armed with knowledge :) So I *POP*-ed my Brisbane strip club virginity that night. Up until that night I had not step foot (even as a customer) in ANY Brisbane strip club.

I know... seeing they payd almost $500 each and we got $300 kinda sucked especially considering I sold the dances myself and they didn't do much but put my CD on (which they lost, lolz)....it does seem that 40% is a bit unfair. :/
