I learned something new!!!
Im sure alot of you might know about this already but I thought I shoulld share what little I know cuz this board has tought me soooo much. So last night was a slow night but I did ok , because I tried a different way of working the floor. If you go up to a custy and he gives you the 'maybe later' thing wait a while then as your walking around the room and pass him give him a sexy look or flash a smile. then as the night goes on if your really bored go ask him how his night is going so far and hang out for just a couple seconds, after a couple of times about 70% of the time he will get a dance because they kindof build a mini rapport with them. And you can work a bunch of custys this way at the same time. Its great because it also helps you look busy if the club is slow.
anyways hope it make sense but it worked really well for me! ::)
Re: I learned something new!!!
yes, sometimes "maybe later" means maybe later.
Re: I learned something new!!!
Maybe later has almost always meant no in my experience unless the guy just walked in. Unless I'm feeling really persistant, I usually look for the yeses and only go back to the maybe laters when I have noone else to try and sell to.
Re: I learned something new!!!
Bambi Blue you are losing money when you don't go back. This is stressed hard in the Dancers Wealth class.
Being persistent and using sales psychology is how you sell hesitant customers.And learning how to sell hesitant customers can make or break a dancer in this business nowadays.
Re: I learned something new!!!
What about when they tell you maybe later but then they go and spend hundreds of dollars on someone else, like right then? Are you still supposed to go back? I mean obviously they were ready for a dance then, just not from me.

Good question, I too wonder this..
Re: I learned something new!!!
That has happened to me a couple times. In wich case I wouldnt go back but it seems like lateley every guy I talk to says maybe later some times he out of all of them a couple will go with other girls but the ones that dont are deffinatley worth pursuing a little bit more.
Re: I learned something new!!!
I wil go back anyway. It doesn't cost anything.
Re: I learned something new!!!
If the night is slow it doesn't hurt to go back to the maybe laters for a sec. Rather than approach with "readyforthatdanceyet" - michelle's description works much better: a brief chat, asking how's it going, or whatnot, even if just a couple seconds can make alot of difference to those hesitant guys who are shopping around before they buy. Most guys HATE the wannadance routine and will often blacklist any girls who use it.
For the guys who spend on a girl who walks up right after he maybe later'd you - either she was his "type", one of his faves or she used a better pitch. Guys really do go for a good pitch!!!
Re: I learned something new!!!
when i gt the maybe later .. i let them know i am coming back .. "ok .. but iwont forget this mister, i Willbe back" And i give it in a stern demanding kinda childish voice if that makes any sence. I go find a dance then I go back, "Im back .. its later .. lets dance hot stuff.
I also like this one, If a guy tells you how good looking you are, this works best with old men, say " i was just thinking that about you. Your pretty hot, your not so bad your self, your a bit of alright." any of those will get a cute laough outa the older men.
Re: I learned something new!!!
I usually don't go back to the maybe later guys, but I will do the sexy smile thing. My response when I first hear the maybe later is something like, "Ok, well when you're ready, let me know"
