"She just seems to attract money"
I was sitting with a girl I know at work the other day (it was slow as hell, early in the day, and all the 3 custies that were there were taken) and we watched another girl we know walk down the stairs and hit the floor at exactly the same time a couple (who I know for a fact weren't regulars) came in. She and the couple immediately began to talk, and about 15 minutes later they were in a room. I later heard that the woman literally had two envelopes full of cash in her purse to spend. As we watched the whole thing unfold, the girl I was sitting with turns to me (we both have worked with the other girl for awhile) and says "I don't know how ____ does it, she just seems to attract money."
I keep thinking about this statement. "she just seems to attract money." I would like to make it true for myself.
Lets discuss ladies.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
Kindred, you make some good points, but i do have to argue with #4. If htey're ALREADY SEEING HER at a different club, why does she have to steer them to THIS one. Sad fact, most clubs DONT show loyalty to their dancers. Her only responsibility is to sell them on HER schedule to keep them coming back to her. WHEREVER she may be working. I usually give a myspace with my work schedule and directions to the clubs I'm on at.

1) from the sounds of it she may have gotten lucky..
2) Attitude.. if you have a good attitude that will take you far..
3) You never know that couple may have been friends with said dancer.
4) (This one is comming from my manager side) How are you helping to promote the club. Do you talk about it when your in other clubs? Do you tell people to come on out and see you, everyone should be a prospective customer.
5) how well are you selling your image? do you greet people who just walk in or do you let them walk past you while your at the bar looking board? (I tell my ladys that -they need to greet every customer who walkes in the door)
i
yet another useless post from a non dancer. My post wasn't asking for "hustling 101" (which I might add has been covered in this section a million times better than you could). Where do I even begin? Are you a manger of a strip club or a regular bar?
1) I am completely sure they were not her customers. This isn't an isolated incidence though-we all know dancers that money just seems to flow to effortlessly and this girl is one of them. I have seen it many times.
2) It is not my responsibility to promote the fucking club. They pay a promotions team for that. What do you mean-do I talk about it in other clubs? Like when I'm out on my own time, at a bar? Are you kidding me? do you really think I go around saying "I'm a stripper!!! Come see me at xxx club!!" Give me a break!!
Maybe I should clarify this for the LADIES aka DANCERS that might actually be able to shed some advice.
We all know girls that have that "certain something" and money really flows to. How do you adjust your attitude so you are one of those girls?
I was sort of hoping to generate some discussion, because the statement "she just seems to attract money" really stuck with me since that conversation.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
I do think that some dancers just naturally attract people with money or can somehow sniff them out. I'm not one of them, in fact, just the opposite. For some reason, cheap guys, who only buy a dance or two and barely tip, fall in love with me and seek me out. I observe what goes on in the clubs I work at all the time, and I notice certain girls will walk onto the floor and just automatically know who to go to or have that one guy who rejected everyone else, go up to her and do a VIP room.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
Law of attraction? If your in to that sort of thing:)

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
I work diligently every single day to attract money to myself.
I'm pretty good at it ;)

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
OK, I have seen this, the girls who just rake it in every night no matter what. I have done my research, observed carefully, listened to happy customers after they spent time with them, Stood behind them unconspiciuosly and eavesdropped and have discovered there are 3 types of money raking dancers....
The first one is the really frustrating one, doesn't look anything great, comes in late, leaves early but still manages to be flat out doing dances the whole time she is there, so how does she do it?-
She gropes thier dicks while she talks to them,
She Never takes "no" for an answer,
Always insists they give her the higher value for a dance,
Always insists they give her more money at the end of the dance.
The guys hate her so much they get a dance just to get rid of her
Of course I'm not recommending her tactics. She's basically a bully!
Then there's the next dancer who seems to rake it in despite being nothing special to look at, better looking than the "bully" but still average. I discovered their secret too, and when the club does too they get sacked. Much smarter than the extras girl, she gets payment up front for services outside the club.
The third dancer type who seems to pull big money is actually quite awesome to look at, blond, glamorous, the most perfectly toned body (one in particular competed as a a body sculptor and had the most disgusting farts from her high protien diet). She combines her perfect body and looks with talking to every single guy in the room. she works her bum off, make a trillion and leaves the industry within 12 months from severe burnout.
Personally I've decided to pass on the money magnet thing and be happy with my steady regular earnings.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
^^^ really? there are only 3 types of dancers that make money consistantly? I dont seem to fit into any of those and Ive always done very well... one of the top money makers in my club.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
No, sorry i must have worded that wrong. I make good money (not huge but still good) consistantly too. I thought I said that. :O
I thought we were talking about the girls who just make buckets and buckets every time they work. The one's you just sit ther and go "how do they do that!?!?" The ones who seem to get a dance off the guys who have rejected 90% of the dancers in the room already.
Dumb me, I must read threads properly.
:banghead:
To make good cosistant money be friendly, smile a lot talk to lots of customers and do a fantastic dance so they come back for more.
That's what I do.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
I don't even know how to explain. I just materialize it! I am worth it, and it will happen, so it does.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
^^8)
One thing I used to do was write out a short storty for my night, detailing how I wanted it to go. I read it before work, and it really pumped me up to go out and make money.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
I do agree with the idea of promoting the club while you're working. It's a good ice-breaking conversation to have in the first place, on top of being morale-building for everyone involved.
I think having the, "I'm awesome, you're awesome, this club is awesome" attitude goes extremely far in attracting money.

Of course promoting the club while you're working makes perfect sense. :) Lol, whatever club I work in (even if I hate it at that second) I always tell the customers how much I love it, it's my favorite club I've ever worked at, etc.
The guy from earlier was saying promote OUTSIDE the club...which I find to be a bad idea. (for me.)

i'm going to second that and elaborate for me- i make very good money consistently, one of the top moneymakers....blah blah..., don't fit into any of the 3 categories, but i go to work beleiving that i will squeeze every last dollar out of those fuckers, that i'm worth it, and they will just hand it over. i believe it and i project it. result-i attract money.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
^ I'm sort of the same way. I consciously work on it though. I'm not really into "the secret" or "Law of Attraction" or anything, I really make a point to be in the right place at the right time for guys, which is the case with what happened at your club

You were sitting with a friend and she was walking the floor. It's as simple as that. You have to make yourself available to make money. And I know you said it was dead and all, so it is understandable, but that's probably why I don't have one single friend at my club, I don't ever sit with another dancer, if it is slow and I want to sit for a minute I sit near the front door with empty seats around me so I can invite someone to sit next to me and so I still look available and if it is so absolutely dead that the DJ isn't even putting girls on stage (yes it was that bad a few weeks ago) I will stand on the stage so that when a customer finally comes in, which will eventually happen, I will be the first girl he notices. I know, kinda psycho, but desperate times call for you know what.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
I like all the posts about projecting the right attitude and thinking you are worth it. How do you get yourself to that point though? I have tried this before (Right after I read The Secret :D ) and it didn't really work, which made me more discouraged.
I keep trying to figure out what the deal is though-like sometimes I'll go for a whole month making awesome money, easily, and then the streak just stops and it seems like its hard to make money. I feel like I do the exact same thing, didn't gain weight or change my look.... Also, a lot of days when I've made really good money have been days when I go in like "ugh, I don't feel like being here..." Sometimes it seems like the days I go in pumped up to make money (EXPECTING to make money) I end up having a shitty night.
Holiday, I was going to quote your post but forgot. I agree with what you're saying-sitting around never made anyone money. However, as I took pains to explain in my original post, the club was extremely dead and all the customers were taken. The girl in question wasn't a harder worker than me-she had just walked down the stairs and as heading in the direction of the bar (to sit with another cluster of dancers) when the couple walked in. Also, I find it very rude to approach people before they have a drink in their hand so I usually don't approach people right when they walk in, I've gotten some bad results using that tactic.

I agree 100% with this.
Granted its difficult to do this if a club is slow and there is no energy in the room. What's helped me is to always work the busier shifts and the buisier clubs.

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
^ even when it's dead, there will always come a time when custy's walk in. And I always think that point is critical. This happened AGAIN to me thursday night. There were about 20 girls working and no one was making money. There were various tables of dancers sitting together smoking and talking with loser regulars and I was doing my usual walk back and forth and wait near the front door, when 4 dudes in polos and khakis ($$$$$$) came strolling in. I gave them my best smile, said "welcome to _____ gentleman's club, make your self comfortable" I sat with them at a table and after some beers I took them each to the back for dances one after the other.
I understand that I'm focusing on this one point of being available, and it isn't really what the OP's situation is about. But for me, it is important. I believe timing is really big in this business. And guys LOVE a mysterious girl and someone who seems to "just happen" to bump into them as they're coming out of the bathroom is "the one" when really it's all been planned out. I don't know. Maybe I have a really bizarre hustle. :-\

Re: "She just seems to attract money"
^^^
Holiday, I'm curious- do you approach before they have drinks? I think I mentioned I've had really bad results doing this, like they need to get settled or whatever.
Do you find it works for you? Do you adjust your hustle any when you sit down and they literally just walked in?
I know I hijacking my own thread, but I'm really curious.
-
Re: "She just seems to attract money"
No I rarely go up to guys before they have a drink on their table. With the guys I approached right as they walked in, I just got this hit off of them that they were ready to have a good time and wanted some company, they were all smiley and joking with each other, so I gave them the party girl thing.
And I'm just talking about when a club is super dead. This really isn't my only hustle I swear! :D
And also I'm also talking about making a positive first impression, whether it is a smile or simply positioning yourself so that he sees you having a positive interaction with someone else in the club, whatever, just so that you are intriguing somehow.
