i was thinking today, what do you guys think a customers choice of where to sit says about them?
in my current club, i have noticed a few specifics about where customers tend to sit. my club is huge mind you... there is an area by the pool tables... almost every customer there is just there to hang out. then there is an area towards the back away from the stage.. it seems like the regulars tend to nab a table here. and there is the bar... usually if a group is sitting at the bar they are not willing to spend, but if a guy is alone at the bar then its up in the air.
at a lot of clubs where the bar is straight (as opposed to circular) guys who sit at the ends of the bar tend to be more likely barflies who never spent and "know the manager" as opposed to guys who choose a sit closer to the middle.
i always find groups or pairs who sit at the bar to be more difficult than those who choose tables. this might be partly because it is harder to devide and conquer with the layout. but i feel like the groups at the bar are more likely to try to put you down and also tend to be more likely to mercilessly hit on the bartender.
also in general, the guy sitting in the darkest corner of the room is someone who a. doesnt want to be bothered or b. the creepy extras guy. so i almost always try to make a quick sale to this guy... if he doesnt want to be bothered then my time isnt wasted.. if he is the creepy extras guy i do an overly sexual pitch, then dance further away than i would normally while keeping a close watch on hands. then i chuckle when i return to the lighter areas of the club and he is sitting in the corner all mad and 20$ poorer than he was before.
so what have you girls noticed about how where a customer sits correlated with what type of customer they are? in general, what do you guys think about guys who come in solo and choose to sit at a table instead of at the bar? what do you think about the guys who choose a table closer to the back as opposed to those who choose one with a prime view of the stage?
