    Default New club, new country

    So, I started at this new club about three weeks ago. I'm still fairly new to stripping and I've had to move countries, hence why I had to find a new club to work at. Although, three weeks in and it has been downright awful and I've barely made much money, I'm seriously thinking to myself "I'm stripping and it's not worth the money -- my bartender roommate is making more money than I am, WTF." It's a completely different club compared to my last club but I used to do so well there.

    Last night I was particularly angry at my club as you need to pay a house fee, and then they take a 50% cut on top of that. I would understand if the money was much more consistent and it was busier and I was actually making lots of money but on a Monday night when there are like, four customers all night (it's a smaller club) I don't see how that's at all fair. When I've made no money and then have to take a cab home, it really sucks. My last club was so great as you had to pay house fee and you kept EVERYTHING you made, including one hour VIPs. I will add though, I'm not paying house fee at the moment as they said they won't make me pay until I've made £1000 in one night.

    The club is great in the sense that girls are awesome and same with management generally, but I am also there to work and three weeks in it has not been good. One of the managers mentioned I came at a really bad time, and heaps of the girls said that when they started working there they didn't make much money at all, but then they banked really well when they finally did and they saw the huge potential....they said to look at your monthly income rather than weekly... the inconsistency is quite stressful considering I have rent and bills due to be paid soon, so I'm definitely considering trying another club as well to one where stage is where the money is (and compulsory per customer). There is also no stage, so tips is not a thing there. They also promote themselves as a "hassle free club" where the girls won't push you for money, which I think is slightly problematic and unfair for us because we get so many guys taking advantage of our precious time. I mean, that's a given with stripping, but in this club so many of the girls will sit with a guy for aaaages, and it shits me because I want to be rewarded after a draining conversation, and I get nothing. You can't even ask for a tip because they don't allow it.

    Last night was basically soul-destroying really, getting rejected all night. There were loads of guys going into VIP but me and another girl were just having such a bad night I still find myself being a bit shy going up to talk to guys, but I'm generally quite confident. I become shy/intimidated when it's a big group of men though. However, at my last club I did incredibly well and the money was amazing.

    Suggestions? Has anyone been in a situation like this?

    London straight up sucks to dance in. See if your bartender roommate can get you a job where she works.

    There's a UK thread on here btw, most of which is focused on London: https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...-The-UK-thread

    Yeah that's what I keep hearing.....definitely did a massive search here on Stripper Web but unfortunately I have no choice but to stay here as I came here for music and I love it here.... I may try hitting up the strip pubs as other girls working there seem to recommend them and much more consistent apparently.... I'm just gonna have to work hard and be persistent with this.

    Shanna any specific reason London sucks? Girls at my work definitely made great money as some of them were in VIP all night but I definitely found it a bit difficult

    London sucks because there are so many clubs and girls and not enough customers. To be successful in London you have to be quite aggressive
    Try the clubs on the outskirts of London if you really want to stay in London

    Yeah I guess that makes sense...english people seem more prudish too. One good thing about where I am right now is they do have a limit on the amount of girls there are per shift so I guess that helps....

    I'll work hard on my hustle, I'm determined to make it work out over here. Thanks for the tip!

    +1. If you can, do strip trips. I found Edinburgh to be worthwhile to dance in during the weekends and have heard good things about Bristol, Manchester, and Cardiff. The UK is pretty small, so most cities are doable even if you can only get away for the weekend.

    Tell me about it! I can barely commit staying at a single club for very long lol. The weather was really nice and sunny for a couple of months, I was quite surprised for London! But this week it's been pretty typical english weather....very grey and a bit rainy today... are you still at the same club in Melbourne?
