    Default Am I A Bad Stripper?

    I've worked at the same club on and off for a little over a year. We used to be a fully nude club until Missouri state laws recently changed. We can't have a liquor license because the owner has a felony. Now we have to wear pasties before midnight and after we have to wear full bikinis. Dances have gone from thongs to full bikinis as well. On top of all of this I feel a bit discriminated against by some of the customers because i'm the only minority working there. I study psychology, read SW for tips, keep in shape, dance well, and give very sensual lap dances but still I'm not making squat. I would dance somewhere else but I'm in college here. Is it the situation or am I just playing the victim? What should I do to step my game up?

    No, you're not bad.

    But the situation is shitty. Have you considered dancing at a different club or in another state?

    How are you doing compared to the other girls working there? This is usually your best barometer..for example, when I was working in the UK, I was making $6-700 per night, whereas now I am making between $250-400 per night. However, I went from being an average earner in my UK club to being consistently top, or one of the top earners in my current club. So I am actually a "better" stripper than I used to be, because I can make twice as much as the average girl at my club.

    If you are making much less than every other girl at your club, then it may be time to really sit back and observe the others, see what they are doing that you aren't, try to figure out what it is that you are doing wrong.

    BUT, if everyone at the club is making very little money, and you are smack in the middle of average earnings, then it isn't you, it IS the club. (It sounds like a pretty difficult situation, really. Juice bars are hard enough to deal with, but if you can't even get nearly naked? yeesh...)

    Are there any other clubs in the area that you could work at while going to school? I'd also really be interested to know what you consider "squat" to be...
    I take cash, debit or credit. I just don't take shit.

    Everything fluctuates so much. One night you could leave with $400 and the next you lost money by paying house rent. I'm considering a school in LA. Is anyone familiar with clubs out there?

    Also the reason I don't change clubs is because there are literally 2 clubs in 100 (give or take) mile radius. The other club films porn on the main stage now so... yeah.

    Two day dancer trips at a club 1-3 hours away with better cash? Generally no classes after 5 Friday yes? Then you could work fri / sat / come back sun.

    I've worked with a couple of traveling dancers from Kansas City and they all complained about how much it sucked there. MO's rules are so restrictive that I would imagine that has a huge impact on your earnings. How far away are you from STL? You might consider trying Hustler club, its actually in Il, right over the river. It can be decent money, although it is up and down as well, but they have a great schedule, just show up whenever you want.

    From what I have read on these boards, LA is rough. High miliage, lots of competition, high house fees. Plus apartment rent is so high there.

    try a different club. I will agree also that if you're making the same as the other girls then it's not you, it's the club.

    I worked one night at a club I had never been to before and I was upset that I had only made 100 dollars when I had hustled my ASS off. I was asking the other girls at the end of the night how they did and one girl was like "dude I made 30 bucks! it was horrible!" I worked a few more nights there and kept averaging 100 so I left.

    find all of the strip clubs around you and check out EVERY single one. sometimes driving an extra 30-40 mins will REALLY make a difference. I'm sure you've met girls who drive 2+ hours to work at a certain club, sometimes it's worth it.
