So I went in on Saturday night, and it was an AWFUL night. Recently, Saturday nights have been almost not worth going in for me!!
Its not that its been a bad vibe, necessarily, but its been very, very, slow, and not many guys buying dances. Maybe one of the fifteen girls that were there left with any kind of money, which is just a bad sign. I personally left with the bare minimum that I was willing to accept. This is NOT good enough. So here is what I think went wrong:
- The weather. It was horrible blizzard conditions outside, so although guys were coming in, they were settling in. In an hour and a half, no one left, and and no one entered.
- The type of clientele. Saturdays, especially game nights, seem to be a lot of young guys who drink cheap beer and don't spend money.
- My head space. Having been off for a week, and not wanting to tramp out in the snow meant a slow start for me to warm up into my game.
- The time of month - this was the last Saturday before rent was due, so we had about 50% more girls that usual because everyone was trying to make rent.
This is what I am going to try to do about this:
- There is absolutely nothing I can do about the weather, but I think that I WILL pay more attention to the weather reports, and if a big blizzard or thunderstorm is predicted, I'll up my targets and maybe work an extra day in the week leading up to this, so that it balances out.
- I'm going to try a Tuesday this week, and see if maybe its the kind of clientele that works for me better. Its slower, but I'm a talker when I sell, so that may work in my favor.
- I'm going to have to get into a routine (just a half hour) with some focused breathing and maybe a trigger song to get me in the mood so I need less of a warm up time. I also definitely need to be going in more!
- I'm going to try to be in more days per week at the beginning of the month, so that when all the girls are in at the end, it won't matter so much to me.
So there's my plan for the next week...I'm aiming to make around $1000 next week working three days..lets see how I do!
