View Full Version : Sizing up customer by his drink...

Speaking for myself when I am a customer, I order well drinks so that I will have more money to spend on the dancers. If I were ordering $15 top-shelf martinis as opposed to $7 vodka tonics, that's $8 per drink that is going to the club and not the dancers and I'd rather spend it on tips and lapdances.
As a dancer, I have no opportunity to use this method because I dance at a nude club in California and it is illegal to serve alcohol in a nude club in this state. Our bar just serves soda, juice, water, and energy drinks, and every drink costs $5.

Btw, Cristal costs minimum $500 in any club I've been in the last few years. It ain't just VA hun ;)
Can usually get for less in Houston - $400 or so.
:thinking: Hmmm, Come to think of it, seems like damned near everything is cheaper in Houston! :rotfl: :tapedshut

The fact that the presumptions made in this thread are all over the board just confirms that this method of finding a money customer is ridiculously unreliable.
::)
Some of you could probably sell just as many dances going "inni, minni, minny, moe".
My thoughts exactly.
Whatever happened to the art of, ya know, talking to someone? Walk up to a guy, ask if you can sit down, if he says yes then talk for a couple minutes to see if he's interested.
Stripping is a sales job, pure and simple. Anybody in sales knows that it's a numbers game and that there are NO indicators that a person is going to buy until you talk to them.

Oh, my, you are drinking gin and tonic. I just love people who drink gin and tonic.
When I'm drinking a gin and tonic I always feel like I'm relaxing on a verandah, whether I'm on a verandah or not,
Can I get a sip? Oh please, please,
Yeah, thank you, thank you.
Listen, Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root canal? His goal: Transcend dental medication.
Yeah, I know, it is, lame. But damn, it helps break the "ice" and gets the ball rolling.
After that I can manuver him into buying lap dances from me.
This is about the only use sizing a customer by his drink does.
Just substitute whatever he is drinking into above.

Here in Adelaide, Australia- Corona's (expensive beer) mean they have money, pale ale and mixer drinks means they will buy a table dance and water/coke - often purchase by ethic minorities are time wasters. I don't even bother with these people.

It means you have good taste, and you are discriminate in your choices as well as your appearance, mannerisms and women.
You have a subtle class and style ans are not over the top.

I will usually ask what they are drinking, and it's usually not a big deal to me.
But don't think for one minute that I won't damn near jump on a guy who's drinking Guinness!
At work we usually only have one guy who buys Dom (in multiples) and he's so not a cheap skate. He comes in every few weeks (2-3) and her buys 3 or 4 bottles, and he gets about $300-500 ones at once (usually has to "replenish" at least twice or more). He usually doesn't get dances, but he does tip very well, and will do dances for the girls who he really likes.
I ususally stop by the Dom/Cristal table and comment on their good taste in champagne, and that I'll be by later if that would be ok with them.
(I play the non-chalant card. If they are the cheepies, they will try to play it cool, if they are for real then they will act it.)

I don't think I've contributed to the thread. Can't let that happen.
Generally in a club, I don't drink alcohol. I want to maintain rational thought, and I don't want to get pulled over leaving the club and be worried about my BAC. Generally in a club, for me, it's a diet soft drink or an orange juice. I'm happy to buy the dancer a drink if she's a dancer I want sitting with me.
If I do order a beer, honest, Kitana, it's likely a Guinness.

I have to say, hearing that Corona is the expensive beer down under makes me chuckle. Here in the states, Corona is just a step above turpentine. ;)

^^^ROFL!!!!
I knew I liked you Jay, lol!
You do know how they make Corona right?
Canadians drink Moosehead, piss in a stream it flows down to Colorado, they make Coor's out of it. Then they drink it, piss in the stream and it goes to mexico, then the make Corona out of it.
Besides Dos Equis Dark is MUCH better!

Personally I think it is a sin to mix Grey Goose, it tastes so good... and I don't even believe in sin...

Vodka is legally defined as both 'odorless' and 'tasteless'.

Four found it to be too unremarkable and lacking the bite or character they expected from a self-described "ultra-premium" spirit.
Dumb. That's the whole reason Grey Goose is so good--it doesn't go down like cheap Russian vodkas that taste like paint thinnner or benzene, it's soft, smooth and pleasant to the touch, not at all unlike a dancer's backside.

I could simply say, "Yes, actually," but that would appear rather artificial and attention-whorish, so I'd leave it to the SW girls that have met me to make that assessment.
:D
Unfortunately, I don't see myself being in Kentucky anytime soon, so an in-person demonstration is unlikely.
It is hard to tell a customer’s potential. I go to a club a few times a month. It is rare that I spend less than $1000. My advice would be to look for the little things. Something as simple as how someone holds a drink can show what part of the social scene someone is from. If someone extends a pinky while holding a beer it is a good bet that he was brought up with money. Someone that was brought up around money and did not have to work hard for it will be much more likely to spend it freely.

/:O Ummm....I thought that was a sign of something else. :P

Also untrue. Old money peopletend to be some of the biggest tightwads around.

Those people who drink vodka for the "taste" have some serious problems, LOL. Perhaps because I was raised with the nasty russian stuff at the table, but I just try to get it in my system ASAP so it can work its magic!
:D
Gah.. what if the so called strip club only sells American beer and wine in a screw top bottle?
Dude gets Budweiser so he's a cheap ass? Please. I've had fabulous nights from the company of guys that drink only soda and it's in a little plastic cup to boot.
