Club Seems To promote more fun than spending money
i work in a club that the atmosphere just isnt a money spending atmosphere it is a very low scale club and attracts alot of regular locals who are just there to "hang out" im used to working some were a little more upscale were when you walk into the place you sort of feel like you should be spending money my question is has anyone ever had to work in a club like this and can relate? how did you handle it? i would go work some were else but i am a bigger girl and cant get in any were else right now im used to making at least 250-300 a night average and at this place the BEST i have done is 350 usually make around 100 dollars a night
this club caters to the customers having a good time which packs the club just fine but they dont spend money not sure if this makes since to any one however let me know what you think also the club i work at is sharks lounge in daytona beach florida some of you may have been there or heard of its reputation:-\ there is alot of drugs and prostitution in this place i keep to my self and dont socialize with any one really but just cant get alot of the customers to spend money they hardly tip alot of the time and thats any one not just me

I think you should find a different club....if you dont feel it ,you dont...Dont hussle unless its fun and fun for you.....you are there to make $$$$ :)

Look for another club. If they're picky, maybe you should try waitressing. It sometimes does better than dancing.
All non PPV clubs have this problem, in my opinion... The guys pay cover and drink, but don't want to tip or buy dances. Before I mastered hustling I waitressed 2 nights and danced 2.
Good luck, I'd realllly suggest looking for a better club.

I've worked in clubs like this (as a bouncer and I managed a few) and find that those clubs are usually dependent on one or two businesses in the area. so most of the custumers work at the same place. so you will notice that on payday your tips are better because 70% of the people there get payed on the same day. (one i worked at was across the street from a factory) I've seen guys blow half their paycheck on one stripper . what some of the smarter dancers who were past there prime and felt they could only dance at H.I.W (hole in wall)clubs would do was figure out when most of the guys in that club got payed and would go from club to club following different paydays.
EXAMPLE: if club A was across the street from the steel mill and the workers got paid on friday she would dance there on the weekend. and club B was up the road from walmart and all the stockers there got payed on tuesday you dance at club B on tuesday and wensday.
and if you dont feel like hopping from club to club then you can always place an ad in one of those papers you see at adult video stores and stick to dancing at private parties.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I used to work in the Titusville, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach, Merritt Island, Melborune, Orlando, Winter Garden area. This is a big area, and has a lot of what you mentioned. It doesn't surprise me that it spreads all that way to Daytona.
If your choice is leaving, then you have to leave the entire Central Florida area.
The only problem with this choice is that it is not all that different any where else.
Another thing is I don't know where you worked before, if you made what you said you made, and then you relocated and suffered a drop in earnings, there are a lot of causes for this, such as sales technique, club environment, and kinds of clients you get.
I hate to say this, but it may be better for you to do private dances or get another job.
Good luck.
