Hello there everyone, I'm Stephanie aka: Eva. I'm 23 years old and have been a dancer for 5 months in Tampa, FL. I used to be an obese girl with no self esteem, I hated talking to people and didn't have a sex drive until last year. The very first time that I ever entered into a nightclub none the less a strip club was to work. Needless to say, I've come a long way as I can talk to customers and sometimes even make quite a bit of money. (Even during slow seasons) However, I've noticed that I really haven't gotten into the real swing of things. My hustle game is weak and I often get my time wasted. Below I have some questions and I'd love your input on them. Thank you!![]()
1. Are stage tippers a waste of time approaching?
I often wonder this... I usually thank whoever tips me on stage. Unless if they tip me only $1 or $2 then I usually ignore them. (I'm bad, I know. BUT COME ON, YOU TIP A BUS BOY AT A BUFFET MORE THAN THAT. I feel insulted rather than appreciated... Like seriously, keep your crusty dollar, it only serves to hurts my ego.)
(With good tippers) After I thank them, should I ever sit down with them? Is that awkward? I feel like they're there with a stack of ones to watch girls and not really do any private dances. Should I change my mindset?
2. Do you let customers touch you for dollars?
I have this problem constantly and it infuriates me... Guys will just come up to me and slap my butt, grope my boobs and then MAYBE slip $1 - 3 into my bra or underpants sloppily. (Sometimes they do it without tipping) For me, this diminishes my sense of high value in the situation and throws off my mojo. If I can see them about to do it and can catch them in time, I will literally grab their hands and say "No, no, no. You didn't pay for that~" in a flirty tone. Otherwise, it will happen and I'll break my teeth grinning at them and push out "Awww, thank you baby!" "I really want to break your face and stuff your nasty dollars into the holes that I will have made in your face..."
How do you all handle this? Am I over exaggerating? Can these morons actually be turned into good customers or are they just a waste of time?
3. How to go from "Will you be mine" to VIP?
I hate this so much! I have met millionaires before who will spend maybe only $300 (sometimes even less) on me in the club, but want to take me on vacations to Hawaii and shit. I'm not Jazmin from Aladdin, I don't care if you want to show me a "whole new world" I just want to give you a good time in here damn it! I will get them smitten with me, but then they'll leave "heartbroken" when I won't fall "madly in love" with them and then lose that potential regular.
How do I take a potential sugar daddy and turn him into a regular paying customer?
(Trust me, men who ask me to go home with them without any money being exchanged just get laughed at)
4. What kind of girls are you and how do you work that angle?
I've noticed that there are some different types of girls at clubs. Every girl has their own approach naturally, but there are some different varieties in a broad spectrum.
You have your party girls, your sensual types, the girls who have many customers or the girl who has one customer. How do you work your angle?
5. How do you make more on stage?
I have an issue with this as I am more sensual in the way that I work. I can't really do many pole-tricks, a fireman spin and maybe variations of that are all that I have in my arsenal. I have been a dancer for 5 months or so and I have only had it "rain" on me maybe once. I want it SO BAD. It's such easy money, no talking, no selling, just dancing, it really is my favorite way to make money.
I see other girls literally jumping from pedestals onto the poles and spinning around upside down, doing push-ups, smashing their butts against the stage, handstands, and just other crazy tricks and naturally they get rained on. (The majority of the time anyways, sometimes they'll only get $10 in singles thrown on stage)
I personally try getting close and personal with the customers, talking to them, touching their faces, blowing them kisses, endless eye contact, along with doing some moves. I have even begged for it by picking my (lousy amount in singles) off the ground and making it rain on myself or making hand gestures to the man with the stack of $1's to throw them at me. But the most I ever get is about $30 on stage on a regular night.
Are there ways that I make customers just throw all of their money at me without doing insane pole tricks?
6. Is it me or is it where I work?
As I stated before, I currently work in Tampa, FL. "The strip club capital" However, it seems like it has died out over here. Some Thursday nights we'll have 50+ girls and barely that amount of customers and the ones that we do get always seem cheap! Getting dances from them are like ripping out teeth for me.
"$20 for a dance? That's outrageous!" (As they offer to buy me a drink which is usually $10 or over, and that's perfectly reasonable to them.)
"$150 for a 15 minute room?! What else do I get?"
I also get generally talked down to like as if I'm an idiot, and a lot of them claim to "know the game" and won't pay for strippers. (Why are you here then ass-hat? Go to a bar.)
I've talked with other dancers from other states and they say that it seems bad over here and that the locals are spoiled. Yet (on good nights) I see the head honcho girls making $500 - $1000 in 5 hours versus the underlings who work hard for 8 hours for $300. The other night, I worked 6 hours for $46... Not cool...
It must be me, but I see other girls with the same problems too. So I'm not alone.
I want to travel to the hot spots, but that's expensive too. Where is a place that has good steady business year round with fairly suitable customers? I am sick of these spoiled douchey Tampa brokedick fountains.![]()

" and if that doesn't work I'll excuse myself and try and find a guy who understands club dynamics. There are whole threads that deal with cultivating regs so use the search!
