2nd shift tmrw...need help w/my hustle!!!
Tomorrow is my second night at my club. I had a not so good experience on Friday night which was my first shift but my house was free so it didn't matter that I only sold four dances all night, although that was pretty depressing. I go back again tomorrow and I really could use some tips on hustling to get more dances. I would get turned down by a guy only to see him going into the dance room two minutes later with the next girl that approached him, and it made me feel awful. I did go out and buy two dresses instead of the bikinis I was wearing so hopefully those help a little, but I REALLLLY could use some hustling tips from the pros around here. I have been digging into the threads into this forum and have found some helpful stuff but really the more I can get the better.
I know every dancer has their own hustle and works hard to make it her own so I don't want to steal it from anyone...I work at a club in Chicago so if anyone here dances in Chicago I don't expect you to share your hustle with me. I'm just worried I won't make my house tomorrow ($90) and I can't afford to owe them money every night until I learn to hustle. Anyone have any really good openers or tactics so the guy can't turn me down? I want to be good at stripping and I just feel like I won't ever get to be like the girls who were in and out of the dance room all night. I know obviously that takes time but I am so lost and frustrated and after the way my first shift went I don't want to go back! :'(

Watch what other girls at your club do. It is a talk-club or a wanna dance club? If guys want/expect to talk they may be turned off by you leaving quickly and think "she just wants money" If guys expect the wanna-dance and youre just hanging out with them, they may see you as the girl they can get for free so why buy a dance from.
But you really just have to learn what works for you. A lot of the girls who bank at my club are dirty talkers but I can't do that, I would just burst into laughter.
Until you figure out what works tho, rely on the "it's my second night! it's my third night.." blah blah. Guys love new girls and I used that line forever and it sold my dances. I used to tell guys "it's my third night, can i give you a dance and show you've what i learned?" it worked really well.

omg that is so freaky. i've been dancing a little while but i just moved across the country and worked my first shift last friday. i only sold 4 dances as well, and kept seeing the customers i was with getting dances from the next girl who sat down. my house fee was free too, and i work my 2nd shift at this new club tomorrow. the similarities are scary!
have you ever danced before? sometimes it's easier to start out on day shift. it's sad and it sucks for a little while, but it gives you a chance to work in the club when it's slower and work on your hustle without getting too stressed out over a packed club. plus, house fees are typically lower for day time girls, so you wouldn't owe the club as much while you're learning what works for you.
as for hustling, i find that actually NOT hustling worked best for me at my last club. just being myself (smart but incredibly clutzy and ditzy) sold more dances than trying to work the techniques. then again, that may have been because i worked day shift religiously for my regular customers, and they loved me for me and that's how i made the majority of money.
i did buy the dancerwealth thing from stripandgrowrich.com. ya it's a hundred bucks, but i think it would definitely be worth it for someone who's never danced before. it helped me out A LOT, and i think it was worth the money.
good luck tomorrow and just try to be yourself. act very confident and like you feel totally comfortable, even if you don't. men really respond to a warm confidence. :D
