    Best Advice Ever?

    Hmm, my last post has inspired me...what's the best advice you have ever received on stripping/stripping related issues whether it be from SW, or anywhere for that matter?

    1. It only takes 1 customer

    2. Attitude is a huge chunk of the game. I get "in the mood" by showering, playing club music, doing my hair and makeup, and sometimes just have one drink just as if I were about to go out and party. That way I get to work in my party mode rather than work mode. This fun attitude is magnetic and the money will follow. Of course, drinking may not be a good idea for you but sometimes that's part of my getting ready/in the mood routine.

    I'm seconding the "two song limit for sitting for free."

    - Never disrespect yourself. The general standard of what counts as an "extra" or otherwise unacceptable thing to do will vary from club to club, but what YOU are comfortable with counts more. Just because everyone else is getting their ass grabbed doesn't mean you have to. Work a different hustle, or find a different club that has better standards for you.

    - With that, don't be the most permissive girl in your club. At the very least, it's the same as undercutting prices, and you may get your ass beat or fired. Or arrested.

    I love number two! I just had a seriously lousy night and it was all because I wasn't in the mood! I swear every girl made money but me, cause I was sulking at the bar! I'm going to try this on Saturday.

    My best advice that was told to me was to treat this like a "regular" job and to save my money. I have the same spending as if I was working my last job because I know I can live comfortably on that income.

    1. Positive attitude = money.
    2. It only takes one customer..... all you have to do is find him.

    1. Use a stage name. My stage name really helps me get in character, she has her own job, house, family, that is totally different from mine, it really helps me distance myself

    2. Don't date guys you meet in the club.

    3. Don't stand over customer taking down to them, always crouch down next to the or sit beside them, you standing abouve them is too intimidating.

    4. Shave don't wax

    1. Smile with teeth on stage!! Look like your having a great time and make eye contact with people, wink smile or whatever. It puts people in a good mood to see you smile and have fun. Good mood=$$$$
    I can't tell you how many girls I've seen who can do all kinds of cool pole tricks and complicated moves, and then they have this bitchy blank stare on their face and make 0 eye contact with the guys. UGH! What the fuck was the point of that?!

    2. Use a lot of facial expressions during LDs. Wink, sly smiles during lapdances... DON'T have the bored bitchy look on your face. Also remember guys are visual, and most of them don't want their ear talked off during an LD.

    3. DON'T stereotype the customers. This is my #1 rule. Don't avoid certain races, ages, etc. Young guys probably won't be able to take you to a champagne room, but most of them are good for a dance or 2. Give a good dance, and they'll usually "pass you along" to their friends.

    At my last club, girls would go straight for the businessmen and dismiss guys who weren't dressed in suits as "cheap." I remember one time, there was a guy dressed like a construction worker, and nobody wanted to approach him because they figured he only had money for one dance. Well, I did, and he ended up spending 6 grand that night (he asked me to get 2 other girls, so me and 2 of my best friends each made close to 2Gs). He was a contractor.


    4. Don't give away your time for free, and don't be scared to ask them for a dance. These 2 go hand in hand. All these guys (except the losers/PLs) in here have enough money to buy at least one dance. And thats what they came here for so don't be shy to ask. Don't sit for a long time, if at all, even if its dead.

    5. Be a little mysterious. Don't give people your life story (unless its your regular customer or something and they ask). Don't try to talk about deep shit either. You can impress them by being hot and sexy and fun, not trying to make them fall in love with your mind. Save that shit for your SO.

    For me, it's been to not judge/stereotype customers before I talk to them. I am continually astounded by how many generous (i.e. high-spending) people come in unusual packages. If I judged, I would miss out on a LOT of potential earnings.

    not everyone thinks like you.

    it seems obvious, but it's really helpful to remind myself of that when things are rough. some people are just douchebags. some people are cheap. some people are shallow. some people are bullies. some people have no idea how to treat other people. whatever. move on.

    its not about the 100 no's its about that one yes. And if you have the will to keep going until you have asked 101 people.

    I use to give up all the damn time after getting the no's or the "maybe later" guys.Whenever I was really about to give up and asked the next person or the person after that I always made money.

    The key for me is to have patience
    realize I'm in the streets so anything goes
    never take a rejection personally
    never expect anything from anyone
    never give up
    and stay positive all night long no matter what happens
    before you point the finger make sure your hands are clean

    .

    Sooo true! This is almost the same story as my first over 1K night! It was very early and a guy dressed pretty casually was sitting alone. Long story short, he ended up taking me and my cousin to the VIP room and giving us 2k each and buying two bottles of cristal, one for the 3 of us and one for us to share with our friends when he left...

    I second most of the stuff on here... particularly the 2 song rule.

    Also, every dollar counts. Don't undersell, but at the same time, take the lousy dollar. I've seen so many girls make only a few dollars on stage, and then get pissy and just trhow it back onto the stage/leave it there. Take that sh*t, you earned it. I know it's not much, but they add up. I've had nights where I've done only 1 or 2 lapdances, but have $300 in singles/tips.

    Oh, and a custy once gave me this hustle tip: "Go up to that guy right there and act like you want nothing more in this world than for him to be your boyfriend."
    It's not my regular hustle method, but it worked. When things get boring, try it out.

    1) Ex-SW member Pamela: You are here to work and make money, NOT friends

    I tell myself this everytime I walk into the club to work.

    2) No man has a right to touch you if you don't want him to!
    3) Always be Closing
    4) Work smarter not harder
    5) Black dancers have to work 10x harder & learn to "barbie" it up

    Don't take it personally when you get a "no". You are the product, the customer is the consumer. It's like when you're at the store and buy oranges instead of apples.....he just doesn't like brunettes/blondes/tall girls/short girls/big boobs/small boobs.... it's not you. It's the "product" of your persona that you are selling- not YOU.

    It was a saying "Analysis Paralysis" meaning stop (over)thinking because that will cause you not to make a move.

    One from the top earner at my old club: No money, NO HONEY!!!

    One from sales training: Don't tell the customer what they want. Listen to what they want and give it to them.

    And one from here: Never sit alone and always act positive!
