    Default Would my friends hustle work for me?

    I always observe other girls sales techniques to see if I can learn anything new and I'm starting to think that being overly flirty and in your face approach works for getting guys to agree to dances more quickly. I generally will sit in the chair next to the guy and do 5-10 minutes of general small talk. ( I always feel so boring) and then when the conversation starts to die out, I'll say something funny like " well I'm ready to get naked and I think your ready to get molested. Lets take this party to private room" I think my closing line is fun and does the job but it seems like the playful closing line catches them off guard because the earlier conversation and body language is so boring. I often feel like I waste too much time in the meaningless bullshit phase. My friend is a bubbly 4'11 super petite platinum blonde who will walk up and plop down right in the guys lap, jiggle her tits in his face and basically just says " hey baby, you wanna come have a dance?" 9 out of 10 times the guy will almost immediately get up and go do dances with her. I on the other hand am 5'10 (6'4 in heels) curvy brunette. I've always thought that If I approached guys like how my friend does I might be too overwhelming. For example Great Danes who think their lapdogs. But I also wonder if guys look at me and are intimidated by how tall I am and maybe I should go throw myself on them and be super giggly and flirty so they can feel more at ease around me. Should I go ahead and try bubbly straight forward approach? Any other techniques that might work for me to get guys to commit to dances quicker?
    Thanks- Nicole

    There are oodles of threads in Hustle Hut abt this, but the more you get a customer talking abt himself, & learn to read their body language, the more verbal/nonverbal cues you will be able to pick up.

    I am not a huge flirty type unless I am completely joking, then I kinda deadpan-flirt(think the 'I want you, I need you, oh baby, oh baby' scene in 10 Things I Hate About You). The over-the-top flirting stuff just doesn't work for me, I feel (& thus look) completely silly trying, & even as a former dancer, I am an introvert first & that kind of approach would turn me off. A lot of your hustling skill will be developed thru trial&error, & there is not really a single approach that is guaranteed to work every single time. How long have you been dancing, just out of curiosity?

    It is good that you try to observe other girls & give their strategies a go. In this job the better you can read ppl, the more often you can close your sales or know sooner to move on b/c the customer just isn't into you.

    I'm new to this site, I was looking through hustle hut but didn't really find what I was looking for on this topic. I'm not sure if I'm navigating it right. I've been dancing for 2 years. I usually try to get guys to talk about themselves but it just seems like often times the guys are just really boring and don't know how to cary a conversation. I'm always afraid I will come across money hungry if I try to close the deal too soon, but a lot of guys who come into my club seem to be socially awkward and somtimes I find myself not approaching people mainly because I dread the boring conversation and awkward silence if the guy doesn't give me anything to work with.

    IME plopping yourself in their lap works for the young ones. The old farts want to sit and talk...and talk....and talk....one reason why I'm glad I don't get too many.

    Your best bet is to adjust your hustle based on the customer, rather than have a one-size-fits-all technique. Some dudes will be turned off by what your friend does, while others are there just for the T&A and it will work great. You really want to read the customer and basically mirror him. If he can't take his eyes off your body and keeps complimenting how hot you are, throw out the 'ready to get naked' line. If he's looking into your eyes and trying to spark a conversation, stay and chat for a song or two before inviting him to go somewhere more private to get to know each other. Asking questions like, 'what brings you here?' or 'what do you like to do for fun?' etc. are also good ways to figuring out how to tailor your hustle

    Overall, I think it's good to experiment with different hustles until you find the ones that fit you best, and then rotate through them as needed.

    Also, don't underestimate the power of being tall. I love going up to shorter guys when they're standing because oftentimes, their face is about chest height. Easy sell.

    I do think you're spending way too much time talking. The only thing that does is A.)Make them feel bad that you spent so long so they feel they HAVE to get a dance or B.)They not care either way that you're wasting your time cause they're not gonna get a dance regardless. Either way, you're wasting your time chatting for that long on the off chance that he buys 1 dance. Don't talk for more than 1-2 songs before you ask for a dance and for young guys, even less.

    Some guys are more socially awkward than others. You have to find something to talk about that brings a spark to their eyes... if they love their work, talk about their work. If they just went to some awesome party that was tons of fun, talk about the party. If they love to golf, talk about golf. And then there are guys who are miserable and want to talk about something not real..I had this guy come in a few weeks ago who had just gone to Italy, so we had this 10 min convo about how we were going to run away to Italy together, he LOVED it... we were still talking about it while we were dancing and one of the other girls got his friend to buy him a dance from her and he actually said no thanks just because he was having such a great time living in this total fantasy with me! Try and make as many connections between the two of you as possible. Even if you're lying (just don't lie enough you're gonna get caught) they will open up and feel more comfortable around you if they feel like you have stuff in common.

    And above all, don't make the convo just random... when I talk to people I'm asking the question, getting to know them but there's an end game. It's all leading up to me asking them to dance/VIP.

    I read a lot... I also worked in sales for many years before this and I think the good ol sales steps works pretty good and can be applied to anything. Google it. Confidence confidence confidence, know your self worth, and remember that you are selling a product. YOU. Whatever positive affirmation ritual you may have before work, include this if you're having a hard time. I have notes in my work locker if I ever need a positive boost or inspiration to meet my goals. I stay up to date on the news and modern events, this always gives me something to talk about and you may even surprise them by having something interesting to say or respond to. Think about your demographic and how connect and build rapport.

    Trial and error, you might not see the guy again anyways.
    What do you have to lose? oh.. time. Time is money.
