I ask them if they would like to go play with me or have some fun. I never use Dance it just doesn't sound right not to mention if they think you are going to ask them for a dance they might not buy. Also you want to make sure you sell them time rather than a floor dance. " We should go spend some private time together."
first off, having your caps lock key on is annoying... i hope you dont talk to your customers in caps lock!
i try telling them they want a dance or telling them its time for a dance etc instead of asking. i try to replace the word dance with fun or something else. another thing that often works is informing them that i want to rub my boobs in their face or it is time to rub my naked body all over theirs or something to that effect; just something that gets the imagery of boobs in face in their minds. If they have the image of your body rubbing on theirs, its hard to turn down!
dont be meek about it. be really adamant that they want a dance (while making the pitch, this doesnt mean hang around and beg if they reject you). you are in sales and have to be convincing, which often requires a bit more pushiness than real life. It also helps if you make yourself believe that your dances are awesome and the customers want them. that way you wont feel so shy about telling them this!
Awsome hustle Athena!
Sometimes I ask them if they want to go for a "dirty" lap dance? I work at a full contact club, so most times I will sit on the customers lap and get nice and close. I whisper in their ears, touch their arms, and neck while chatting too them. I don't sit there for too long however. Always ask if they want to keep going... it's easier getting one customer in for 4 dances than 4 customers who get 1 dance each. Always upsell! xo
Here's a tip you might find strange DON"T ask him.
Imagine the custy - Girls approach him all night. They play giggly flirty and immediately blurt out and ask him for a dance. He says no because most customers in clubs (and in the outisde world) have trained themselves to instantly say no to salespeople.
Do all the things ArielSkye says without asking the question. Rain down compliments and get very close and make lengthy eye contact. The more attention a guy gets and the more you don't try to sell to him the more intrigued he'll get and he'll want to buy you and he'll ask you to dance outright.
Reverse psychology.
Failing that if you're still having no success you'll have to interject with something like (staring into his eyes)
"I want to be alone with you". If he asks what he will get if your alone (idiot) your reply is
"Me". That's it. You didn't promise him f*** all except your going to be in close proximity to him and a lap dance.
If he asks where, first point to VIP. Always offer the most expensive option first. If he has a problem with the price say "Then let's just go and hang out over there" (pointing to the lapdance room). Get up, pull him over there and CLOSE that sale.
After he's heard the price of the VIP the lapdance room will sound like a very good alternative. You can then try and upsell him in there for more dances or VIP.
Never ask a guy "Do you want a dance". Try not to offer him any question that may leads to the answer "no".
I say "hey baby I'm hot, wanna help me take off my dress" lol . it's corny but I have fun saying it to guys
If i'm chatting and they complement on my looks i say "Thanks, I look better naked on top of you.. wanna see?" They can't say no!!!!
I work at a "wanna dance" club, and it's always worked for me. There's no champagne or VIP room or anything to hustle the guys into; just private dances, 1 for $25 and 3 for $60, and they should tip about as much as they paid the club for the dance. But the majority of the time (I'm not counting all the customers that will approach the dancer looking for a dance), the only way to sell a dance is to ask. At my club, beating around the bush and doing that whole, "Let's go have some fun," or, "want to help get me naked?" does NOT work. Partly cause there are enough clubs in the area where "fun" means "sex," and partly because in NY, if the club serves alcohol you can't be nude at all, and you can't be topless within six feet of a customer. So, the only time we're topless is onstage. Lol, it's best if you don't lay all that out there in front of the customer beforehand. I can just imagine it now: "So you need to give me about $50, and we'll go into the back, and I'll dance for you without taking anything off at all, except maybe my bottoms if I have something over my G-string, and you can't touch at all, and it'll be over in one song."
So, basically, if I want to sell a dance, I'll go up to the guy and make a little small talk--though not fake or anything. I ask if they're having a good time, and maybe say a few other things. Then I ask, "Would you like to get a dance?" If they say yes, I'll immediately assume they mean a private dance and tell them the pricing. If they're like, "I don't know," or whatever, I'll be like, "OR, I can give you a table dance out here, just for a tip. They're not nearly as good as the ones in the back, but it'll be a good warm-up for you." Then I do the table dance. Then, when it's over, I ask if they'd like one in the back now. And a lot of the time they say yes. And when they're like, "maybe later," a lot of the time they mean it. And an hour or so later, they'll come find me and say, "I'd like to get that dance now." Basically, whenever a customer doesn't immediately say yes, I tell them, "Well, if you change your mind, this is how much it costs, and you get the token from the bartender, and you can use it on whatever dancer you want. Just walk up and give it to them, and they'd be happy to do a dance for you." Keep the customer informed. I see a lot of girls that will go up and just drop the "Wanna dance?" and when they say no, or show uncertainty, the dancer just walks away without explaining anything. If the guy isn't a regular patron at your club, chances are he doesn't know exactly how things operate. We have guys at our club who don't even know about the private dances, because no dancer has ever really told him. They assume the prices dancers quote apply to the table dances we do everywhere. I use the same approach with a customer at the strip club that I used with customers on the phone at Time Warner Cable when I worked there (albeit I'm a little flirtier at the club). Even if they say they're not interested, give them the information. An informed customer is more likely to say yes afterwards. No pressure, no guilt, none of that. Just tell them the deal. And in upstate NY, where a LOT of the girls at my club have that "Bitchy Italian Princess" thing going on, a warm, sincere approach can come off quite exotic--especially since I have a Southern accent. I can't tell you how many guys approach me sometime that night with a token, and tell me I was just the nicest, most sincere girl there, and they really appreciated my help, or information, or honesty, or attitude, or whatever. So, it definitely pays off.
For me, it varies from guy to guy. If we are having a drink, I usually don't want them to feel rushed, so I say "I'm not saying immediately, but after we finish our drinks, I think it's time for you to see me naked." Then he doesn't feel like I am saying OMG DRINK UP AND GIVE ME MONIEZ.
If we are not drinking, I make a song of two of small talk and say one of three things:
"Oh, I love this song! Naked time!"
"Are you ready to see my boobs, sweetie?"
"Let's have some fun."
If we are connecting, I pitch VIP but saying something along the lines of "Has anyone told you what kinds of fun we have available?" Then I will run down the options, and suggest and hour or half hour, depending on what kind of vibe I get from them.
I also ALWAYS make it sound like they are getting a deal, or like the whole thing was their idea.
My conversations always lead to a close. I use the same sales script on EVERY new customer. I can do it in my sleep!
The basic premise is to ask simple questions that have the answer yes. Get him into the habit of saying yes, smiling, and nodding his head. Then when you say, "You're ready for me to get naked now, huh?" he's in the habit of saying yes to the other things, you will get an automatic yes response.
Talk to him for a while first. I was SO scared to ask guys for dances my first week so I just started talking to them trying to gather up the courage to ask them for a dance. I'm still not good at the "wanna dance?" one liners and that doesn't really work in my club anyway (guys expect conversation) but I'm a lot more comfortable asking for dances now and talk to guys for about a quarter of the time I did in the beginning.
You just have to keep forcing yourself to become uncomfortable and eventually you won't be. And as each day goes back and you see the other girls selling dances and making $ and start getting "money hungry", it'll start motivating you to get out of your comfort zone.
I work in a "lapdance factory" club, so we have a lot of girls who walk around saying "wanna dance". I don't like this hustle either, it seems pretty corny to me and often doesn't work when I try it.
I have a sexy routine that I've developed which I use on every customer I talk to and it has a much higher success rate. First I walk up and we say "hi how are you" kind of stuff. Then I ask their name. I always say something like "Craig? That's such a nice name" or "Oh I could have guessed that your name was gonna be Tony, you definitely look like a Tony". Then they ask my name and I lean in real close and say "I'm Jezebel". The whole time I am talking to the custy I am up close in his personal space, moving my hips and drawing attention to my tits and letting him get a whiff of my perfume(I wear pheromones at work), so they usually get a kick out of my stage name. After this I will make a little more small talk, asking them if they came with a bachelor party or similar (we get a ton a bachelor parties on the weekend). After a couple minutes I will ask how their night is going. When they say "good" (or "bad" or whatever) i lean in real close with my boobs in their face and whisper in their ear, "I bet it would be even better if I was naked on top of you". It usually works, and depending on how interested the customer seems I will sometimes skip the small talk routine. In these cases I will just say "how are you" and when he says "good, how are you" I say "I'm good but I'd be feeling even better if..."
I don't know if this hustle would work for everyone or how well it would apply in your club, but if you have the right customer base and a give off a vampy/slutty vibe, you can probably do pretty well for yourself with that set of lines,
I don't wait on drinks... honestly it's a waste of time and if you leave some other girl could run off with the customer. Instead, if they have a beer I pick it up, run it down my neck and mention being "sooooo hot", beer goes down into the chest... I squeeze them together around the beer - look at him seductively and then playfully put the beer back on the table. After that I lean in close and say "I know no one likes hot beer... so I'm just giving you some motivation to drink faster so we can have some one-on-one time together... or you could just bring it with you."
Most of them time that works and he'll just bring his beer to the lap dance area or VIP.
^^^ But then you smell like beer!!!! LoL
