I'm auditioning at a couple clubs this weekend and going back to dancing...I was thinking about some strategies that worked for me in the past (I quit 2 years ago). One, which I know sounds really stupid but DID work for me for some reason, was literally TELLING the customers how much $ I wanted to make that day/week/month. When I was getting ready to move to a different city I was working a lot trying to save up and told everyone-"I want to break 5k this month so I can get a cute apartment in the city!" They seemed to eat that up and and I even exceeded my monthly goal and made more than I ever had.
When I first started dancing I told everyone "I need to make $800 this week so I can buy a puppy" (there was a bulldog puppy I wanted to buy at the time)...I almost always got dances or VIPs after that line. Keep in mind that I had no hustle and no idea what I was doing then. I was never a top earner until my last month of dancing in a small, kinda rural club. Has that strategy ever worked for anyone else or was it just luck?
