    Default Using Stories to Increase Business

    http://engagetoday.org/use-stories-t...your-business/

    Thought this link might be useful to some of you.

    I was actually looking up stuff about youtube, and a link to this came up. The guy basically says how stories help people trust you more (which helps when trying to sell something.) It got me thinking about a comment that I read on stripclublist.com about a dancer who I met 8 years ago when I first started dancing. This girl not only had a kickass pole routine (I think that she won several competitions), but she also had/has a killer hustle. I actually don't think she really used her hustle back then, since the club was basically a "wanna dance" club for awhile, but she had quite the following later when "wanna dance" didn't work as well. Back to the comment on SCL - this guy wrote that he always loved spending time with her in the CR because she had great stories to tell. I remember her telling some of her "stories" in the DR, too. In general, she was a great storyteller and really sucked people in.

    Looking back I also remember having my first back-to-back CR, during which it continued bc I was in the middle of telling a story. I wasn't ferociously grinding on cock - I was simply talking.

    Now, for you good storytellers, this is something to keep in mind. And yes, topics will have to be tweaked for individual customers.

    I, myself, need to learn how to tell a good story!

    I sometimes use stories in the champagne room, more often I share jokes though... sometimes things from the "Overheard in the Dressing Room" thread here on SW. I want to make sure the guys are having fun and sometimes making them laugh and keeping them in "our world" is a great technique to getting them to spend more.

    I'll be watching this thread closely.
    Last night I told the story about how I got stopped and how I got out of getting a ticket just before getting to work. I made it funny and lots of the customers loved it. I also used it as a warning to be careful driving back home since the cops will be looking for speeders and drunks. Made me seem like I genuinly cared.

    oh i have a BOATLOAD of semi-true stripper stories...they're different based on the guy.

    i find it works very well in geting a guy to at least buy a dance.

    Can anyone post some of their story examples, i've also found stories to be a decent hustle tactic- i'm trying to come up with more, now i only have a fishing story, and a champagne dressing room story
    These days I like to count my money. I like to wash it delicately and iron it. Sometimes I dry it with some bounty to make it all nice and cuddly. I love my money... did I say that out loud?

    "oh sure, i'd like a xxxxxxx drink. but don't tell anyone, once i almost had my drinking privledges revoked because i got MAD wasted on thanksgiving/halloween/christmas/newyears and almost stabbed a guy with my shoe!"

    "well why did you hit him"

    "he tried to stick his finger in my booty!! with no warning or anything!! i mean, i like a little backdoor action but WHOA you're at least supposed to give some kind of warning or something *laugh* and then i was like WHOA mister you can't do that, and he got so mad he wouldn't pay me! and he started to walk away, so i went after him and tried to hit him with my shoo, and i was so drunk i missed. i was only walking on one shoo anyway, and they're kinda big, so i should have known, but he was as drunk as i was and so i thought i could get him. and who sticks their fingers in a strippers bootie anyway? *laugh* i mean, i'm a super clean girl, i don't turn tricks, but i can tell you FOR SURE that any stripper who lets you put your fingers in her backdoor has had a lot grosser things up there *laugh* so that's how i almost lost my drinking privlegdes, i was hopping along on one shoo, with my other in my hand, waving it around and chasing this guy around the club, everyone is laughing hysterically at me, and he's trying to wiggle away...i eventually got paid, but it was hard work doing it. so what do you say we go for some naked time, but you can't surprise me like that, okay?"

    ps, i add in some arm flailing for dramatic effect. it's actually really hysterical

    that's my favorite, it's worked on every guy but one...

    ^^ OMG thats freggin hysterical, but if those words came from my mouth it would definitely sound strange since everyone knows i dont drink a lot, and what if the bartender overheard (its not a huge club lol) but damn, good story. Any others want to share their "stories"..I bet lesbian stories do awesome for the guys and sometimes with my friend (but shes leaving the club now ) we'd do double dances so would flow together and work well, but..now i need a new double dance buddy lol. Not all guys are into it, "want me to themselves" or whatever, and you cant really stack dances, but it has worked a few times! I'd love to see more stories!!!

    I like this thread so I guess I'll contribute a story. It's my first visit to a strip club. Ooh, it's long, sorry!

    Years ago when I just turned 18 I had this idea that I should do everything I wasn't able to when I was 17, like buy cigarettes, go to a porn store, play the lottery, or get a tattoo. So one night a friend and I decided to go to a strip club. So she, her boyfriend, and I head out to the Deja Vu in Seattle.
    Now, this was in January. Seattle strip clubs don't really have much going on in January, it's pretty slow usually, so there really weren't too many people at the club. We sit down and watch the girls dance and scope which ones we want to give us lap dances (for a slow night no one wanted to approach us!).
    Then we hear an announcement that there will be a "shower show" so we all head to the back room to check it out. We're in the back room and there's this girl all doused up in shaving cream with guys throwing bills at her trying to get them to stick, and the announcer points at me and says "You! I need your help. Come up here." So I come up and he gives me a can of shaving cream and says "Can you soap her down for us?". Okay, so I'm 5'1" and wear tennis shoes. This girl is at least 5"8 and wearing stripper shoes so she's over a foot taller than me, making me eye to eye with her tits.
    Well anyways, I'm not one to turn down soaping up hot girl's tits with shaving cream (she had really nice tits too). I start lathering her up and this fat balding 40-something year old man says to me, "Hey let's get some of that over here!" So I go up to him, and squirt a dollop of shaving cream right on top of his balding head and wipe it all over his face. The announcer then hands up both a towel and VIP passes so we headed back to the main room.
    However, now the balding guy thinks I've taken to him and sits by me smirking, still wiping shaving cream off his face. I take that it's time for me to get up and get a lap dance. I ask this pretty blonde girl wearing a white bikini, she's super cute and tells me she's never given a dance to a girl before. She dances, and tells me she thinks I'm cute and "omg! You should work here!!!". I tell her I like my current job, after the lap dance my friend, her bf, and I head out. Four years later, I'm stripper working across the street from the same club. Moral: Watch out for strippers and shaving cream. It's a hard one to explain to your wife.

    I have a ton of stories, some funny, some sexy. It's always good to have a stock of funny stories to help pass the time in VIP. Best thing of all is that they don't have to be true. My stories are usually a mix of truth and fiction.

    Okay, well I don't know what really qualifies a "sexy" story as I tend to by on funny or truth is stranger than fiction stories, but here are two that happened to me in recent years, so feel free to steal them and modify.

    Other Girl Experimentation:

    When I was 21, I worked at a four star restaurant in Atlanta. I had just moved there with my ex, and didn't know the dancing scene there, so I figured a high end restaurant was a good place to get some cash in hand.

    My first day there I met a gorgeous Moroccan guy named Chakib. The running joke in the restaurant was that he trained all the waitresses, then took them home. He did train me, but since I was with someone, he never took me home. For some reason he found this really intriguing, and pursued me for months, even after I left the restaurant eight months later to go work in a strip club again.

    Several years later after moving to SF and back again, I went into the restaurant with the sole intention of finding Chakib. I was staying with a girlfriend of mine at the time, and I invited him back for dinner. He was thrilled to see me, and accepted.

    Later in the evening, after much food and much wine, I sat in between Chakib and my friend M, relating how crazy the whole situation was. Chakib gave me a kiss and wanted to go to the bedroom; I told hi to go in there and wait, I'd follow in a moment. He left and I asked M if she wanted to join us, without his even knowing.

    When we went in together, his eyes grew to the size of dinner plates. M and I are strikingly different and that's what I think made it that much better; here he had one girl who was tall with small boobs and blonde hair, and another who was shorter, curvier with round natural DD boobs and long dark hair. We climbed into the bed onto either side of him, and leaned over his body to kiss one another so he could see the view from below; he later confessed to me he was nervous and thrilled all at the same time.

    I, or I suppose WE, had an affair with him for several weeks after that. I never slept with him without M. I never loved either of them, but that is an experience I will never forget, and he still talks about it to this day.


    Dressing Room Story:

    In one of the clubs I worked in, the dancer's bathroom was in the dressing room itself. It proved to be a little bit of a pain sometimes, but was definitely easier than trying to push through the civilian girls in the main ladies' room.

    So one super busy Friday night, I've been running around like a chicken with my head cut off for hours, and I really, really had to pee. I poked my head inside the regular ladies' room and saw it was going to be a little bit of a wait.

    Fuck.

    I go into the dressing room and astonishingly, no one is in there- or so I think. I turn down the little hall where the single stall is and try to open the door. I rattle it a little, and it seems to be locked.

    I hear some giggling and ssshhhhh and moving around.

    "Come on you guys, this BS hurry up!" I call out.

    I wait a few more minutes, and I figure at this point, fuck it, whatever is going on, I will just pee in front of them.

    I rattle the door again, and it comes open.

    What do I see but two CIVILIAN GIRLS having sex in my dressing room bathroom!

    The only thing I could do was grin, apologise, and shut the door.

    i doubt this is effective but it made many guys laugh and trust my friend instantly. she asked whether they watched the news and omg this guy in vietnam trains kung fu monkeys and one day the monkeys got out of the cage and beat up the dude who trains them.

    id much prefer stories with a sexual undertone though to set the mood but anything like that seems good to break up any awkward just met atmosphere..

    I love telling stories. I usually tell the same ones but try to tell them differently and more interestingly each time. Most of them are 90% true....my super hot best friend works at a porn shop and we're both bisexual and watch crazy awesome porn and fool around and go to sex parties and have threesomes and blah blah blah. I consider it a fantastic opportunity to improve my story telling skills and really ham it up.
