    Default is there a best time to work on certain days?

    So I've been looking at a gentalmans club here in Ohio, I've been there twice. I'm auditioning tomorrow if I pass the audition I can stay and work that night, if I really suck on stage, they will require me to work a few day shifts. Well I asked about how scheduling works. They don't have one, I work when I want to work. House fee is 10$ before 6pm and add 5$ each hour after. I then only have to work 6 hours. So back to my question, are there certain times at clubs that are better? What time is the best time to start my shift? Last night was Saturday and at 10pm and there were barely any seats open, it was packed out and only 25 girls working. I kept looking around and seeing money signs! I would say I should be there by 8pm on a Saturday. But what about the weekdays? Is it an early crowd since people have to work the next day? Would I want to get there at 6pm? Does it die out earlier during the week? If you were me, what schedule would you give yourself for the first week?

    my first week of dancing i would start out during the day when it was slow and i could become more accustomed to the surroundings and customers. plus, the earlier you start the less your house fee is! wow ten dollar house fee i would love to work at your club! oh, and tuesdays and wednesdays i used to bank at my club , so it really varies from club to club depending on your area and your type of hustling style

    Thanks! I was told that Monday and Tuesday were busy busy last week. I'm taking a friend with me tomorrow. She is a dancer already and is going to show me the ropes. I have a whole notebook full of great info from here. My nervousness has calmed down. I'm actually excited. I've realized I'm not embarrassed about it either. It's a sales job. It's about making money. And I'm only gonna have this body for a little while. And what job can you make this kind of money at? Plus I want to enjoy my life and build my savings up.

    I 2nd Simone's starting out on slower days/shifts to get yourself acclimated, I always do that myself when starting at a new club.

    Busy times will vary enormously between clubs, my current club only has a nite shift, you work 7.5 hrs then you can go or you can stay as long as you like after. It's also an after-hrs place so we often get a rush around 2.30-3a.m. when the other bars & clubs close down. Within a wk or two you should have a feel for the general flow of busy vs. slow days at your particular place, but even w/ that said, you nvr know just who or how many will walk thru that door on any given nite.

    I think I'm going to start off going in at 5pm. This way my house fee is only 10 and I can leave at 11 if its slow. We have tons of business guys in the area because of oil drilling. I assume these guys don't stay out past midnight right? But I thought 5 will let me ease into my shift too.

    If dayshifts are available and you're available, do it. After some experience you might decide that you work best with customers who come in during the day, hopefully turning enough of them into regulars to make your dayshifts profitable.
    If you're only planning on working a couple of days a week and the club isn't generally busy during the day, I'd say show up at 8 and give the night 100% of your effort and work the busy hours. In my experience most clubs are their busiest during a lunch or dinner buffet rush. In the evenings things pick up and stay busy after 10-11pm sometimes a bit earlier or later but usually within that time frame.
    If you want to leave early or have better chances of making more $$ before the bar gets slammed show up and work at 5pm. Sometimes you can get good customers stopping by on their way home from work.
    I do agree as well the the OP that it depends on the club.

    Yes, and as other ladies have pointed out, that largely depends on the club. It also greatly depends on your hustle style though. Personally, I do better during the day. The clientele and my hustle just jive better than during the night shift, so it's a more lucrative time for me. Other girls just can't get into the money making groove during the day, and can only make at night. So, while certain times may be BUSIER, it's really a matter of trial and error to determine which time are BETTER for you.

    Just work a variety of shifts whenever you can (obviously the earlier you get in the better since there's less girls/competition and you have more time to make money) and you'll figure out what's best for you.

    Now, while you're trying out shifts, make sure you're trying out ones that you can work consistently. There's no sense in working a Wednesday day if you'll never be able to go in during it again. That is the #1 way to build regulars, which certainly makes hustling easier. There's no sense in trying out a Wednesday day shift if you know you'll always have school/other job/whatever going on at that time in the future. I mean, you'll still make more money than not going in, so it's nice to pop in for random shifts sometimes, but consistency is key for long-term success.

    Thanks ladies. I'm gonna keep a log and see what I do. I would like to keep a hourly log to see when the best money is but I think it's bad luck to count your money during a shift. (I've been in the service industry for 13 years )

    i totally agree. i never count my money til after the shift ( and im superstitious i guess) but also it will keep you from getting too depressed early on because all it takes is the last few hours to make your night.

    I only work nightshifts. I don't do well with the old farts because they don't like the tats and the metal. However, the young ones are only good for one or 2 pops at a time. Oh well. I'm allergic to daylight and bullshit.
