    Default Kneeling/Sitting/Standing Approach

    Okay, so recently I've been approaching customers by walking towards them, you know, not out of eye sight, smiling, and then I kinda kneel/hunker down in front of them and start on my 30/45 second introduction/small talk/closing spiel.

    The kneeling thing seems to be working for me, but I'm curious on other people's ideas--What works best for you? Sitting down at the table? Standing next to them? I'm just kind of experimenting here.

    I tend to sit on the arm of the customers chair, so that I'm really close but not sitting ON them.

    I sit right on them! Usually I can tell from the guys expression/body language as I approach him whether he is interested or not. If not, I will just kneel- figuring I'll be getting up in a sec!

    ^ yeah, that's why I kneel... so they kinda get the idea I don't plan on staying long!

    We're not allowed to sit on laps at my club Not on the floor, anyway.

    I usually sit on a guys lap too but if I wasn't allowed to, I'd either kneel or pull up a second chair real close to his.

    If I hustled them from stage or am approaching and they seem interested I'll sit in their lap. Otherwise I approach from front and kneel between their legs. <- IDK who first mentioned that on SW, but it works better for me than crouching at their side.

    I do the kneeling when I approach customers. That way, I dont' get to "comfy" talking to him. Usually, if he wants me to stay, he'll invite me to take a seat..if not, I move on. I NEVER sit in laps though... <--don't even get me started on that.

    i've found kneeling is a genuinely unique hustle technique. it gets in the guys mind that we are SO interested in his company, that we'll squat down in a not so comfortable position just to have a few word with him. every time i kneel, i sale a dance or two, or five.

    Walk up from the front making eye contact, kneel down between their legs... that's what I do. I will not sit in laps for free.

The pains that have burned me and scarred my soul, it was worth it, for having been allowed to walk where I've walked, which was to hell on earth, heaven on earth, back again, into, under, far in between, through it, in it, and above."

    I sit on the arm of their chair or I kneel in front of them. NEVER EVER do I just sit in their lap as an approach and if they ask me to I know they're a time waster.

    I also kneel in front or to their side if I can't get directly in front of them when asking for dances.
    I am not interested in endless arguments or debate. I visit message boards to interact and share with likeminded people.

    Unintentionally I have kneeled between a guys legs before...as I can recall, I did get dances. Maybe I'll try this a little more often. We shall see.

    My club has a lot of bar stool high chairs, and I'm convinced this hurts our money. I rarely ever close sales with guys sitting in high chairs, or to guys who are standing up. Guys sitting in lower chairs, I can kneel down or sit right in their lap, and that works much better.

    Stand between his legs. If you must sit in a stool too, I drape my legs across his. I try to keep close contact.

    at SR clubs the chairs all have little tables so, kneeling between their legs doesn't really work...also if there are 2 guys I will kneel next to him away from his firend and kind of talk in his ear, so his friend can't hear what I'm saying (without being obvious). This serves 2 purposes, gets his buddy curious about what were talking about, and keeps them from doing the stupid stuff guys do to impress each other. If they say "Hi, I'm Bill, and this is my friend Ted" I will quickly say "Hi Ted!" but still only talk to Bill. After hitting him up for a dance, if he is not ready, I will say "no problem, come find me when you're ready! I guess I'll see what Ted is up to now, see you soon!" I then go around to the other side of the table, out of earshot of Bill, but it is still imperative you do not say the eact same thing you just said to his friend, less they compare notes, and you seem like a money grubber.
    Oh yeah, and I will not sit in custies laps for free. If they want to get me in their lap, they know what to do lol
