    Default Vegas this week

    Hey ladies,

    I need to travel for a few weeks. I'm looking at the last week of June and the first two weeks of July. I know this is the slow down season for this city, but would it be worth coming out? I know that's probably a silly question, because the true answer is always, "It depends," and no one ever really knows what the night will bring. But do you ladies average @$200 per night during this time?

    Please give advice. ??? ??? ???

    No!

    Why are so many of you guys so hell bent on going to Vegas?

    $200 a night is not a guarantee in Vegas. Some days/nights the club may be DEAD. Club owners are concerned about too many girls over the summer. They want the girls who live in town to be able to weather the summer and not quit.

    If you read the previous posts especially my detailed ones and those of Nawty Girl aznd Tori Baltimore you will see that.

    Everyones money varies but dancer to customer ratio and TYPE of clientele has to do a lot with your earnings.

    Forth of July weekend will have lots of dancers and lots of oldercustomers will be doing family stuff and only the young party guys will be in the clubs, and the day after the holiday will be DEAD DEAD DEAD for some weeks to come.

    As you were told before, IF you want to come to Vegas wait until Mid October when the conventions hit again , work until Thanksgiving week, leave until the 2nd week of January and then work through March Madness. After that it will slow down. And even then there is no monetary guarantee but the odds of not going in the hole and making a profit are much better.

    Some clubs in the Upper Midwest have a more guaranteed chance of making money since the weather is cooler and the amount of dancers is capped, but they require anywhere from a 2 week to 6 week advance notice for a Mon-Sat booking with a few exceptions, and thats where I focus on working. $170-$200 depending on the club is a SLOW night for me there. In Vegas slow is not making payout.

    You can lose your ass gambling AND dancing in Vegas, no joke.

    Again, so many people are hell bent on Vegas. Timing is important when working there.

    The key to success in this business is your $200 days/nights, not your $500-$1000 ones.

    Why? Because if you can earn close to $200 when it is slow, most people can live on that and when business is good the big nights are bank money.

    As my saying goes, "Your best money is made in places others won't go."

    Thanks for the constructive criticism. I don't know about everyone else, but it's not that I'm hell bent on going. I'm not super experienced about places to travel. For me, Vegas makes it easy to work for the clubs. They take their fee from you and leave you alone. No schedule, no questions, no bother. I was also told by one girl that worked for Scores in NY that she loved Vegas just for the reason that people are not always after you trying to grab their cut. Although, I know this isn't true of all clubs in Vegas. I've actually seen some clubs (not Vegas) hire extra people just to follow the dancers around and make sure they don't miss a single dollar they made. WTF??? What a workhorse thieving feeling.

    In reference to going where no one else will go, I thought Vegas in the summer time would be one. Of course there's a reason. But I visited one club, Saphire's in the fall and there was 350 women working :o I don't like that environment and thought the calm summer month would be tame. Besides, my b/f has been wanting to go for sometime and will be way to busy to go after the summer.

    By the way, "Do you have any suggestions of those places, 'go where no one else does?,' for any region in the US?"

    I just speak from experience and total honesty.

    The Las Vegas Metro area continues to grow and more and more dancers call it home.

    Plus, many of the dancers there drive from LA, Phoenix, and Salt Lake.

    The more anti dance ordinances passed around the country the more girls look to Vegas as an escape. The heydays of Vegas were in the 90's when Cheetah's, OG, and Crazy Horse Too and a newly opened SR plus Glitter Gulch were the places all the tourists hit.

    Too many clubs now and a shrinking customer base and expanding dancer base has created a super high hustle atmosphere and a more cautious customer.

    The best chance of having less bad nights/days and more good ones is during the times I mentioned.

    Vegas never used to raid clubs and enforce laws until a few years ago and these actions have made the clubs there lose business like in other cities.

    In my experience every major city in the country without schedules is over populated with dancers. And the big cities with schedules limit the days you can work so that you are in essence a part time dancer by the clubs choice. If you are a girl wanting to work 5 days a week it can be hard.

    If you just want to go fora vacation, that is cool, as long as if you work you have no expectations of a certain amount of money you need to make.

    The heat makes no difference to dancers anymore. They need somewhere to work and on the weekends and holidays a shit load of them will show up.

    At 3 PM on Saturday of Memorial Day weekend 56 girls were on the floor and only 20 customers and the guys were the cheap crowd.

    Girls still are coming out of the woodwork.

    Plus Las Vegas clubs for the most part are BIG TIME palm greasing operations. I have never worked in Scores or the like in NYC but out of all the 20 states I have danced in EVERYONE in the big tourist clubs is out to make big bucks and it is definately high hustle.

    The house mom was bitching to the GM the last time I worked about how the girls weren't tipping her enough, the VIP bouncers watch the guys like hawks when they don't get tipped, and bar sales were down and the bouncers were walking the floor telling guys they had to have a fresh drink or leave even if they have already bought 2 which in my opinion is all a responsible guy will drink.

    Also making a single guy get up from a table on busy nights if a crowd of young guys who greased the bouncers palm wants to be seated.

    Dancers and club workers come to Vegas to make big bucks off of tourists, more so than at home. The tourists feel the high hustle and become uppity at times.

    In other cities every customer is treated the same, local or tourist. And with Vegas stepping up enforcement of strip clubs, many guys don't feel the dances are as good in Vegas as other cities anymore.

    I focus on working M-Sat paid bookings in clubs in the Upper Midwest in small towns where I work with maybe 4-5 other girls a night. Where stage obviously is mandatory, but tipping is pushed, where if 50-70 guys come in from 6 to closing on a night, you have enough business to sell dances without worrying about the guys having 100 other girls to choose from or other girls trying to steal your customer, and getting $300 to $400 in pay Saturday night for the week.

    Every small town club is not as good as the next, but I have tested a lot of them and 4 clubs in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota I rebook and work every 4-5 weeks.

    My average money in these clubs is twice that of what I made in Vegas in April and May.

    I just depends on you Breanna, how much you average after pay outs at home.

    A big city big town fancy club does not always mean big money. As you said about Sapphire, working with 350 girls is not all that fun is it?

    Were there 800 customers in the club all the time there were 350 girls and were they all older target customers?

    Several girls in Vegas told me I was making more in 6 days in the small clubs up north than they were averaging in the big Vegas ones.

    You can master all the Dancer Wealth techniques and then some but if you are working where there are more employees than customers on a regular basis, how much high steady income can one have?

    I think Pleasures and Glitter Gulch have some potential this fall. in Glitter gulch the girls are lousy floor workers and when the tourist business and convention schedules are in full swing i will definately be back to clean house.

    I was starting to build up a base of regulars at Cheetah's on mornings but the business got slow and of course those guys don't come in daily. If I lived there full time and stuck with that shift I think I could be popular with the older regulars.

    You can see all of the smaller town clubs in the Dakotas, Montana, Minnesota, and parts of Wisconsin and Iowa
    on Strip Club List.

    A club in a town of 15,000-30,000 people with no competition which pays base pay and only works 4-5 girls a night can ofeer more steady money than many big city clubs based on my earnings comparisons.

    Plus you build regulars and each month you are booked they will come and see you. And pretty girls work in these clubs too. Other girls from Minneapolis and Sioux Falls regularly work these clubs too.

    I am just giving you an honest overview. Go to Vegas and if you want explore the smaller clubs. I have more info if you want it.

    I never worked there but in viewing it as a customer, it didn't seem to have as many dancers, plus it had more of a "normal" club feel.

    Upon entering the door you pay the doorman $16.50 for 2 drinks, he flags down a waitress who seats you typically at one side of a long 2 sided stage that runs two dancers at one time. There were lots of people at both sides of the tip rail and they were tipping. That money can be used for house fee and tip outs, leaving the dance money as pure profit.

    This is forcing the customers to tip on stage and the girls seem like they get enough stagetime to make some money up there.

    The dancers don't seem to be well trained on selling and the club has Vip areas.

    It just seems like more of a club where you can be noticed as a dancer, and not have to prance the floor as an unknown like in the other big tourist clubs.
