    Default My Private Party Pet Peeves...

    These are the things that really get me going in a bad way when doing privates...

    1. The booker doesnt know that there are more than a few guys and it turns out to be 20 or more and youre the only girl. Not cool to have an hour to make everyone of them have a goodtime.

    2. Agencies that fine you for stuid things like not wanting to go to sunday meetings at 4 hours after youredone with your parties.

    3. Bookers not doing any of the client verification so you dont know what youre going into.

    4. Bookers trying to up their sales quota by offering freebies that they dont tell you about. Like not telling me I have to do a whipped cream or babyoil show in advance.

    5. Drivers/bouncers who get lost, dont use GPS and have vehicles that arent well mintained or even look presentable.

    6. Drivers/bouncers that use their job as a way to pick us up or somehow manage to think its okay to bring a friend along or stop at a friends house to look cool.

    They dont shut up is mine.
    I do the kind of show where they all sit and watch as i insult and pick on the bachelor. They all talk and yell stuff out and ruin the jokes. Ugh! What a waste of their money.

    1. the guys who put down the least amount of money for lapdances are the most grabby and rude throughout the party.

    2. no pics allowed... yet people take pics WITH flash and then try to say they didn't. bitch im gonna smash ur camera!!

    3. girls at the party who are either like "the skanks are here" or are trying to be strippers with us and they are too drunk to function

    4. driving 6 hours up into bumfuck maine and having your party be cancelled because the party just blew us off and our company didn't take a deposit -_____- now THAT'S the worst!!

    5. the agency charging a huge house fee like $500 and we don't get ANY of it and just work off tips


    all of these reasons, plus the reasons posted by everyone above, is why i'm going independent. i'm just gonna have my bf be the driver. i'm def going to take deposits because if they are serious about booking the party, they are going to drop that money on the house fee anyways and it shouldn't be a problem. if its just a prank call or joke and they book a show with a deposit, it's an expensive joke on them, not me.

    All of the above are why I went into working for myself. Especially the reason that the one agency I worked for kept all the money for the show and get this I had to tip out 25% of what I made and in addition I had to tip the "bouncer" who did nothing and in fact was only there to count how much money I made. I literally did two shows and made all total $80 so I then worked for myself.

    My biggest pet peeve are the men who are disrespectful at the parties. I once did a party where the guys started throwing food at me and ended up stealing my underwear. It was a show for cops and I learned that cops were one of the worst shows to do so I started avoiding them unless the money was great and I had no other shows. I also hated the men who thought being a private party dancer meant I was a whore.

    kind of a threadjack... but how do you screen clients for parties? just wondering since i'm going independent and have obviously never done screening myself before.

    thank you!

    Never any way to be 100% sure.
    But, for me, one way we filter out some bad custies is my husband takes the calls and gets half up front on a credit card. Getting the CC number lets the custie know that we have their info.
    If the guys are fun and polite I do a great show but if anyone gets out of line we can alert authorities with that info and he tells them that on the phone prior to booking. And do a contract if you can. I have lost a few a few gigs but I prolly didn't want them if they dont comply.
    I'd say 90% of my shows are hassel free. Hope that helps.

    That is the #1 reason for me. I screen all my private clients similar to how escorts screen their clients. Probably 99% of the private party agencies have no screening process... which scares the hell out of me! I also put it in my contract that if anything happens to me, the person who booked the party can be held liable, which means they are less likely to let their friends start anything.

    My other issue is that I generally don't like the overall rowdiness & high expectations of private parties. I'm not the loud mouth party girl type. Generally if I do parties I'm more likely to do poker parties & such where it's primarily men over 40. I don't enjoy the young high-energy types as much.

    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    I screened a few ways (many mentioned)but one was getting the name of the company where they worked and called them. Keep in mind I started dancing before the internet was what it is today.
