    Default 'Hi I'm...' 'I know. We've met before'

    I have awful memory. Last night, a customer started talking to me & he looked familiar so I said it & he said "Yeah, I've met you before." So I said "oh, well I'm..." "*insert my stage name*. I remember." I felt really awful & embarassed. & then later that night, it happened again! I went up to a group of men & I started to introduce myself & they were like "we met last month." Man what a blow How do you guys handle these kind of situations?

    I think that's why I didn't remember them because they didn't spend $ on me. Should I just laugh it off like "hehe oh I'm so sorry! It's hard to keep up with all you handsome men"?

    I usually just giggle and say "I thought I'd met you before but I wasn't sure....I'm horrible with names, you'll have to forgive me" or something like that. Honestly I think a lot of customers think we are all a bunch of airheads anyways, so use it to your advantage.

    Lol, this happens to me quite often. I have a terrible memory for faces and a lot of guys look alike to me, and I don't remember LDs either. No advice really, just try to make them feel special again as quickly as you can.

    Yesterday I had this conversation with a customer:

    Me: Hey, how are you doing? (sitting down)
    Him: Good.
    Me: Did you do anything fun last weekend?
    Him: You don't remember me do you?
    Me: I'm so sorry, no, did we meet?
    Him: Ya.
    Me: Did we do a dance? (totally fishing)

    (if he would have said "no", my standard line is "well that's why silly, I need to see you up real close...let me show you..." but he said yes)

    Him: Yes.
    Me: Oh, now I remember! Yep, you're that cute one who got me all worked up in the back! (sounds like SS, but when said convincingly and with almost a bit of embarrassment, it actually works)

    ....etc. etc. we went and did some more dances.

    I never remember anyone. I'm reallly reallllly bad. When I get caught out not remembering someone I just say "Oh was I drunk?" and try and laugh it off. Then I try and push them into a dance under the pretense "We should go now, while be both still remember it".

    Sometimes guys come in thrid and fourth times and I still don't remember them. I think my mind shuts guys I dance for out of my memory on purpose.

    I do it all the time. I've introduced myself to regulars that I'd seen weekly for months. Now I mostly just don't introduce myself.

    Wow. I guess I'm on of the rare breeds then. I'm usually very good at remembering people, sometimes even names, events, hell even where we sat the last time they were in the club.

    Dont' ask me how I do it, cause I have no clue lol.

    Yeah, i have a photographic memory...so i usually won't remember names, but i'll remember crazy-specific details about people. Where we sat, conversational details, etc. If i remember their faces, i can usually come up with other stuff that probably makes me sound stalkerishly interested in them (to the point where i'll sometimes feign ignorance about our past conversations). If I could control it, I would. But people stick in my brain. O_O

    I'll admit, it has made for some damn easy hustles though.

    I am so bad with remembering names in general. I meet people 2, 3, 4 times and still don't remember their names. It's something I would like to improve on.
    Of course I was bad with it dancing, too. I had "regulars" at my last club and would always get their names mixed up, or not remember at all, and these were guys I was seeing a few times a month.

    I'm gonna look up name-remembering techniques on Google.....

    I just introduce myself like, "Hi, I'm *stagename* and I'm really bad with names! Tell me yours and I promise to forget it at least three times. But I'll remember YOU -- tell me something from our conversation next time you see me, and I'll be able to repeat back the rest of it."

    This is one of the big things I am going to try to work on this week, and next. Finding ways to REMEMBER their names, and use it in conversation. I seem to get their name, and just focus on getting the dance (totally forgetting their name). Bad. bad, bad!

    Im actually really good with faces and names. I remember some guys names if they have only come in once and then the next time I'll say hi John (or whatever name) and they are so flattered that it gets them spending.

    When u meet a guy and he tells you his name, repeat it immediately.

    Customer: my name is john.
    dancer: great to meet you john.
    it's a great memory technique. when u end the dance thank them by their name again. i promise you if u do this u will get repeat customers.

    Sometimes tho i do forget a face which is why i never introduce myself. Whenever i go up to a customer or one comes to my stage i say "hi sexy" amd therefore if i have met them before they think i remember them.

    it happened the other night. a customer waved to me when i was on stage, i wave back and say "hey sexy". he says "do u remember me from the other week i was here for my cousins bucks night?" I said "yeah i do, i knew i recognised you when u waved at me sexy". Then later on his $250 became mine

    I've always been horrible with names. I read a good tip on hustle hut. When they introduce themselves, say "Nice to meet you, John." Then try and repeat their name: "So what brought you into the club today, John?" Not only does it help you remember their name, but people love to hear their name and it's great for establishing rapport. (See "How to Win Friends and Influence People)

    Make sure you repeat his name during your conversation and during or after the dances. That helps you remember his name alot easier. You'd be so surprised how men (again ego stroking) are and tend to be flattered that you remember his name. I always make them feel like eventhough I come in contact with ALLLL these men when I work, I still remember him because he was such a great guy/gentleman during our dances the last time he was here *hint hint*

    Ex. OMG Dave, that is a crazy story!
    Dave, you look like you're not done with me yet, I'm right aren't I
    I had such a fun time with you tonight Dave, when do you plan on coming back in to see me...
