    Default How long to sit with REGULARS before suggesting LD/VIP

    So now that I'm trying to obtain regulars (again), I'm wondering if the 3 song rule (slightly more or less depending on individual and amt of customers in club) also goes for regulars, or if it just goes for new customers that you've never met. I was under the impression that it's mainly for new customers? The majority of girls where I work work off of mainly regulars,and I'd say that about 95% of them sit wayy over 3 songs before doing VIP. The other 5% (and I am giving some that I might not see the benefit of the doubt) are in VIP just about the whole time during work. My whole thing is that if regulars expect you to sit more than 3 songs just bc they came in to see you (before spending money), is it really worth it in a club where LDs are usually fairly easy to turn to even put forth the effort in acquiring regs?

    I wouldnt both if it was me. Where I work getting dancing is not easy so without my regulars I'd be in trouble financially. But at a fast paced club, I don't bother too much with regulars unless they are spending $500/visit.

    YES! It's worth the effort.

    There will always be a slow night where that regular saves your butt!

    It depends on the night. If it's a really slow night I don't mind sitting and chatting for a while, especially if I know it means a bit more cash for me. If it's a really busy night I still don't mind chatting for 5-10 minutes to a regular but if they're not spending after that I politely let them know that I have to go make money - if they're in there often they know how it works and shouldn't be offended by this.

    Not long. Once they show interest start gettin' busy.

    My best regular and I head to the LD area as soon as he arrives. Mainly because he doesn't really care about getting too personal, and he already has a set number of dances in his mind. However, we, considering the circumstances, know each other decently well and talk like regular friends. Nothing OTC, and we don't get too friendly, just entertainment with some chilling in between.

    I'd have to say it usually doesn't go like this, though, as they usually do want more attention since they did come in to see you. I'd wait several songs for anyone besides a regular in which you two have a system, like mentioned above.

    It depends. If it's slow, and he's a regular who ALWAYS buys a VIP, I'll gladly sit and chat for 10-20 minutes. It definitely helps with keeping the repoire going, which of course is essential to having them come back again and again. But if it's busy and I have other guys wanting to do LDs, I'll tell my regulars they'd better book me for the room now, or if they're still settling in that I'm going to do some LDs and come back in 15-20 minutes.

    My high paying custies as long as they want if they are going to make my night if not then depends on who else is there to make faster money off of. Normally my regulars don't waste time & if they like to take thier time they make it worth mine. Other regulars of the club I treat like any other custie & that is if they haven't spent money on me then they don't get any of my time. If there is no understanding that we are doing a ld or a room then they know I'm moving on cuz me wasting my time to connivence or ask a custie to spend money on me just doesn't happen.

    It depends on how slow the club is and how much $$ you know he's gonna spend on you.
    If I'm sure a guy's gonna spend like $400+ on me, I'll sit w/ him & drink for a while, we'll get dances, maybe we'll sit and drink for a while more and then get more dances, for the whole time he's there, because making $400+ on dayshift at my club isn't very easy, and I'd rather chill w/ one guy for a longer while than make the rounds and make a risky time investment w/ stranger after stranger, not knowing if it's gonna pay off.

    Plus at my club guys almost always expect you to sit with them for longer than 3 songs. They're a bit spoiled.

    Like 1 minute unless my dirtbag or deadbeat meter says otherwise. I also try to sit by the door so Im the first girl they see when they come in. It helps me get to the customers before the other girls do.
