i still do very well, making $60-100/hr. Here are some of my hustle tactics:
-i almost never ask for the dance. They ask me. The way this works is i approach a customer or group like they are guests in my personal kinky sex dungeon full of all their wildest dreams and i am delighted they could make it. I am their magnanimous host. I am in charge. I flaunt my ass, neck, smile. I'm cheeky with the young ones, treat the brooding bored ones with solidarity. I touch everyone- their palms, shoulders, chest. Generally act like i am infatuated with myself. And then i walk away.
They almost always try to stop me- "hey weren't you going to ask me for a dance?". Then i tell them i would love to get that chance to explore their body/ help them relax/ make them excited/ show them exactly how cruel/nice i really am.
This technique also works for couples and women- they know me, know my name, feel connected, but also never feel pressured. After a drink they'll come looking for me.
- high volume hustle is a little different. I don't have time to talk to everyone when it gets busy so i'll just see who smiles at me while i'm marching my current victim/savior to a private session and then come back for him when i'm done and either beckon him with a snarl and my index finger from across the room or straddle him and tug his collar while saying "you're mine now" or even just "come!" this works best when the guy is also being congratulated on being chosen by his buddies who will loan him the money even if he's broke (an actual concern in my town is if they even have after buying a beer).
The only time these methods fail me is when the club is dead- then i just try to fascinate whoever might have some money and not die of boredom. Even then i act like being at the club is this amazing privilege, i'm never bored or tired or pissed in conversation it's all just "i love what i do, i get to watch beautiful naked women, meet interesting people, and oh god do i love to move."
my stage sets are definitely sloppy but i'm still a house favorite because i look like i'm more aroused, having more fun, and full of more energy than anyone else who goes up there.
I do ignore the weirdos (usually young scrawny black guys who want my number) who sneer at the girls and say "yeah, i never fucking spend money in a club." but i've been wondering if it would be worth my time to taunt them into a dance or two, tell them they act like such ballers but why would i believe they're actually a big deal unless they can prove it by acting like it. Eh, might be too exhausting to deal with assholes.
I am always scrupulously honest with customers, never start a dance halfway through a song or am unclear about pricing, i refuse to do dances, and sometimes charge double toward the end of the night but only after letting them know my prices before we go back. I treat the touchy ones like third graders, being very clear about the consequences of their actions. Nobody gets to cop a feel. I'm also a very, very clean dancer, but utilize sensuality, enthusiasm, and risqué conversation to make my customers feel like they are having the dance of their life. So they ask me if i have time for another. I end my dances by saying 'thank you, that was fun' and i wink across the room when i see them later to make them feel special.
Aries, i don't know if investing more time or effort in your persona is something you want. The above is just my alternative that's been effective. It sounds like ice queen might be something you want to explore more and i would recommend taking an approach with it that really plays up that you are the queen. They are peasants (and maybe a lucky knight/champion or two) and should be honored to be in your presence, you greet your subjects, and you don't ask- you tell them when you want them and where. Don't waste time talking for 20mins, you're too important.
If they just got a dance ask them about it- you aren't another competing employee, you are leisurely taking time to be curious about your realm. Did he just get there? Still waiting for a drink? Well wonderful because you were planning on resting for a moment and wanted to spend it with someone fresh and young/mature. You're going to be taking up half his chair because he has the best view of the stage/ quietest spot/ darkest corner and you love watching girls on the pole/ being able to hear his voice without yelling/ feeling like you're both hiding out from assassins. Chances are he'll be watching for when you go on stage and if you dance well he'll want you.
Or go to the upscale club! If i had one in my state i would be there so fast. I over hustle men who max out their atm withdrawals with $100. If i had the chance to play with gentlemen whose pockets ran deeper by the fact that they were even admitted at the door (no basketball shorts, tank tops, sweat pants, plus expensive drinks and cover) and the girls actually had a standard of dress besides ripped thongs from wal-mart/ mis-matched neon, i would be there tonight. What's stopping you from auditioning?
