    Default do floorhosts make a difference to your $$$?

    I do my best to tip the floorhost 20% when I have a 1 hr or half room but lately I've noticed that no matter how much I tip them they almost always hook up their friends. I'm not a super sociable person but I do make an effort to get the know the hosts even though some are standoffish.

    Do they really make a difference in $$$$? What am I doing wrong?

    my floorhosts are either drunk or couldn't give a f*ck. i just make sure they like me & will leave me alone when needed. one asks me to count my own dances because he gets so wasted. oh dear.

    Swing by and say hi to them when you first come in so they know you're availible and willing to work. Tell them you'll tip 30% for any customers they hook up. You shouldn't have to tip more than 10% for dances you've earned completely by yourself. You could also ask your customers to tip the bouncer, but that's really dependent on how generous you think they are.

    I don't know; this comes off a little desperate. "Hi, I can't sell dances on my own, so maybe throw me a bone?" Do you really want to demonstrate that IF he did hook you up, that you don't have the ability to work the guy so he can maximize his percentage?

    If they are hooking up their friends first, then that's obviously what you need to do. I'm not sure how people become "friends" but I know at a strip club, it really takes time to build rapport with other people that work there because it is so superficial...probably moreso in Las Vegas since many of the dancers are so transient. Maybe you just need to be more patient and when you do talk to them, really act like you give a shit.

    Do they have myspace pages? Maybe you can check them out to get info and find something you have in common to talk about and go from there.

    Yes, they can have HUGE effect on your money whether they hook you up or not.

    I always come and say hi when I hit the floor and let them know I'm back and how long I'll be in town.

    I agree with Emily, it does take time build a "friendship" with them and just throwing money at them without taking time to get to know them will not have you remembered. They need to see how you work over time. Start hustling your customers to hook them up too. Even when I find my own rooms I still look at the waitress, host and I working as a team and we help everyone get paid, because they can help you extend. upsell and receive a bigger tip.

    Lastly, hate to say it but being hooked up also depends on your looks and if you're universally appealing. Unless a customer requests a specific look of course.

    yeah, where I work in Philly, it's mostly true. But I saw the OP was from Las Vegas and the floor hosts there actually do something.

    At my clubs as well. I have read on SW about tipping out the ones who bring you business. I tried that ONCE with a floor guy, his dumb ass sent me to every guy in the club..he wasn't being selective. It was like he was moreso picking out guys he assumed had money, in hopes that I'd break him off some.

    Ummm no. I want you to screen these guys, find out if I am the type they like, talk them into VIP/CR and THEN I'll hook you up.

    Damn goofball.

    I continually got hooked up by one host in philly, but I made nicey nice with him and made friends. He also got tipped from customer and form me, when he hooked me up. But again, make friends, don't throw money.

    Love it!
