    Default getting to know customer before dance

    Dancers, assuming its a new customer, which type of customer do you prefer:

    1) One who buys you a drink and sits with you talking for 30 minutes before deciding to buy a dance.

    2) One who walks up to you and says, "let's go do some dances!"

    [COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961)]Lol.. Unless the first guy is getting hours in VIP while the second guy just wants floor dances... I guarantee you that no stripper would ever prefer the first type of customer. While I don't mind sitting and chatting I'd rather get straight to dancing and making money. If the guy is tipping me while we are talking then yes, I'll take the first one. Otherwise no. In California I'll talk for 30 min sometimes but here in Vegas no way would I even stick around for that long without getting paid. [/COLOR]

    Yeah, all other things being equal, I would totally go for #2 over #1. This seems like a silly question. We're at work to make money, not friends, so of course we're going to go for the guaranteed cash in hand than the potential waste of time.

    That said, my usual hustle is to make chit chat for 1-3 songs, maybe longer if it's a regular who spends enough to make it worthwhile, and then closing the deal. A half hour is a pretty long time to sit with a new customer and for all I know, he may not even buy a single dance after all that time.

    He's either a troll, or just very ignorant to strip clubs... also sensing a lot of entitlement.

    Agreed with Julia that if you aren't coughing up $$ within 3 songs... bye Felicia.

    The best dances I ever received were from a bartender who was also a dancer. We talked a bit while I had a few drinks. She then gave me a hand massage. Then she mentioned was a dancer and wanted to know if I would like a dance or two. I know it was part of her hustle, but I enjoyed it and she made money. She did give me a number if I was interested in knowing when/where she would be if I wanted to have some drinks and get more dances.

    I'm going to go against the grain here, and go with #1. I pick who I am willing to dance for, not the other way around. I may not have 30 minutes in a row (we have a pretty quick stage rotation at my club, girls are usually up every 15 minutes or so), but before we go get dances I want to get an idea as to if I can provide a good show for a new customer.

    I regularly invest 20-30 minutes into new customers. I don't expect customers to spend $500+ on me without showing him I'm worth it.

    I won't work at clubs that don't have VIP areas.

    ETA: My bullshit radar is pretty good. If a customer is just wasting my time, I can usually tell pretty quickly. People don't realize they have buying signals. I can see these buying signals from across the room, and can also see if a customer is just wasting my time (non-buying signals).

    #2. I honestly don't know why most would waste their time with #1 unless he is known to spend a lot of money.

    I prefer option two, unless option 1 is the type of guy who will spend $500+ after spending that free 30 mins with you. If I want to get to know a customer (for purposes of him becoming a regular, obviously) I would wait until AFTER he has been a decent chunk of change on me. I love it when random guys come up and ask me for dancers, it's hella easy cash, and no time lost, because if they only get one or two dances at least I didn't waste my time talking to them and can just get on back to my hustle!

    A lot of clubs I've worked at have been the kind of hustle where you talk to the guys for a long time and then they start spending cash... I didn't mind that, but this club I'm at now is usually the opposite and it's been the most steady money in Detroit so far.

    I try to stop girls from doing this - places I go get slow during the week and sometimes girls set up with a guy hoping he's money. Might be he's fun or good looking, but not me. Most split when my lack of social graces becomes apparent, but I am a regular and when I'm a few in, ok to talk to. So when a girl sits more than a few minutes, I try to let her know I'm not dancing or something like that. I do it to save her time, but most look a little taken aback. But they move on. When they don't, and I enjoy talking with them, I tip them 20 or 40 bucks for the lost time - probably not what they were shooting for, but if I say I'm not dancing, I'm not dancing with you.

    It's hard to not be rude sometimes. If I have no interest, I try to tip you your dollars right after we introduce ourselves.

    On the other hand, I never go up to a dancer and ask her to go back. I'm not looking to interrupt. I'd rather you be undistracted if we go back, not thinking about some other business I pulled you from.

    I don't know how that helps. But you should never expect a girl to sit with you for a long time. Not a date. I've had girls I was really close to and spent a lot on, and I was always surprised when they hung out for much longer than our dances.

    I'll leave the rest of your post for others to comment on, but don't worry about interrupting. If the dancer is not actively talking to someone chances are you are not interrupting. Most dancers will be up front if they are already booked. Ask just as the dancer is coming off the stage after her set. Most of the time she will not already have a customer already waiting.

    "Lappers" is a common slang for lapdances on TUSCL; the user is probably some guy who frequents the TUSCL discussion area.
