    ^Most customers don't understand that some clubs take a cut from your dances, so sometimes it's good to politely enlighten them and ask for a "tip for your time", "tip for your dancing". The worst that they can say is "No". Something like this is often enough, "The club takes/I only keep *insert number here* from this, so would you be a gentleman tip me/pay the difference for our time together?".

    Are you closing the sale or is a VIP host closing it for you? Do you mention a specific suggested tip amount when you close?

    $100 for 30 mins is super-cheap! Is that the norm in your area? Would you get fired for charging more?

    Oops. You asked for answers but all I have are questions.

    When I quote the dance prices to customers, I will add 2 words to the end of my quote: "Before tip." As in: "The VIP dances are 3/$100 before tip."

    The other thing you can do is mention how much of the dance fee you have to give back to the club and that most customers tip that amount on top of the dance price. I bring up the fee for 2 reasons, 1. to keep them from lingering in VIP w/o buying dances (they will try to steal time because they don't realized that we are charged for our time in VIP) and 2. As an opportunity to bring up tipping after dances without it sounding like a shake down.

    I try to always ask at least "Would you like to tip me for my time?" Like others said, the worst the dude can say is "No," so you've really got nothing to lose. Plus, I feel like when I ask it kind of puts the customer on the spot, so some guys would feel rude flat-out saying no and will tip at least something. Another thing you can do, like Tourdefranzia said, is to drop a line about tips when you're quoting prices, or mention that the club takes half of the money from champagne rooms, that way you at least get the thought into their head that they should tip. You could also mention something like "Tipping is never expected but always appreciated!" There are a lot of ways you can drop the hint or ask for tips while still making it sweet/non-awkward/non-demanding.
    I used to feel super awkward asking for tips at first but I think it's all about how you ask. Plus, if you mention it to every customer you dance for and even if only half of them tip you, it all adds up!!

    On the other hand, if you have a regular who will take you to the champagne room and drop several hundred dollars on you, but you feel they might be turned off by you asking for extra money on top of that, then you need to judge whether or not it's worth the risk of asking for a tip in the interest of preserving that repeat business!

    "As you know, we don't get it all, so gratuity is always appreciated."

    *fuck me eyes, bite lip, run hands down your body and over your hips (to pull the side of your bottoms to recieve the tip), smile sweetly*

    If you don't want to sound like you're preying on his money, tell him about the club taking part of that money (eg. The club may take 50 for a ten minute 150 VIP, leaving the dancer with a net gain of 100). I had have customers feeling bad about that, that they would pay that fee themselves.

    Since most of my customers use a credit card, I'll say this when the host leaves with his card.... "The gratuity on the tab goes to the host, mine is a separate charge at the end". Be sure to remind him about the tip, by the time vip is up and negotiate the price before the host gets back. You can tell him that the club takes xyz% & from there you tell him how much ppl usually tip you.

    If he's paying cash, I ask sweetly if he can take care of me since the club takes xyz%.
