    Default Judge a book by his cover?

    Are there certain things that you look for when you approach a guy? Things that spell out "I HAVE MONEY!"?

    I usually try to avoid the hispanic guys unless it looks like they are spending some money or I am desperate. Is it the clothes they are wearing? A certain age group or ethnicity? I have a hard time approaching young white guys because I feel they are pickier and usually go for the stick skinny girls with big boobs. So what do you look for before you approach?

    shoes, watches, haircuts, posture... I tend to avoid the young white guys too tho that depends on if I think they are a geek-type or not. I do really well with young computer guys.

    As a customer, I try to use subtleties to attract dancers. I'm a college student-athlete, and don't have a job because I don't have the time, or energy. However, my parents make good money, so I do get a monthly allowance, and stow money away to spend at the club. I usually rack up a fair amount. When I go, to let dancers know that I'm not a Wal-Mart special, I get dressed in nice clothes, (Abercrombie, and Gap, or nice athletic wear like Puma) wear a nice watch, wear nice perfume, make sure my teeth are white, and wear nice jewelry (nothing over the top though). I go dressed for success. Look for custys who appear as if they care about how they look. My humble little opinion.

    It depends on your area too. Sometimes the scruby dressed guys are the ones with money to spend. The customer I'm made the most money off so far had a lower salary than most other customers but was simply willing to spend. It's not how much they make or have. It's how much they mind spending.

    A man can have all the moneyin the worls but it does me no good if they wont give some to me!
    Looks can be a good indicator of money, but they can be dicieving. People like chicken fighters tend to have a lot of money and spend it but they rarley dress nice. I dont sit with young guys unless they ask me to and then they better start spending quickor im going to leave. I like to sit with men who are dressed nice but dont look like thay are trying tolook nice. the ones that make looking good very casual. Everybody has a nice outfit they can wear to the club. that does not mean they have a nice check.

    I look for the overweight and geeky guys first. Also, white collar men that are dressed in business-casual clothes. Most of all I look for someone who has a relaxed look on their face.

    Anyone who gets up to tip you while you are on stage. They are trying to get your attention so you will come over to them so they can buy lap dances.

    Oddly enough, our first newsletter was devoted to this topic. That being said, there are some ways to read good potential customers on sight and yet they are not always 100%. Just because a guys has a $100,000 Rolex on doesn't always mean he is a big spender.

    I usually try to make it very obvious that I have money and am willing to spend it. I dress up nicely, tip the waitresses well, and usually approach the stage with a thick stack of bills which I am more than happy to dole out rapidly.

    Another thing that I have noticed in the club I frequent is that the customers who are a little less shy about spending will often keep their tip money in plain view--often right on top of the stage in a nice obvious pile. Those who are cheaper will keep it far out of sight--to obscure how little they have. Not sure if this is common elsewhere, but it seems to be a fairly common pattern in my favorite club.

    So for what it's worth...

    I wouldn't judge anyone by their looks or ethnicity. You never EVER know. Sometimes the bummy looking ones with sneakers, caps & dirty hair are the ones with the big G's. Just treat everyone the same, and word would probably spread that your the nicest one in the club?? LOL, i'm guessing...

    Stereotyping a customer is not usually good business.

    We live in a more casual society today and everyone doesn't necessarily wear their money on their sleeve. If a guy is dirty or shabbily dressed, so what. He came in the club didn't he? Guys like that many times will spend.

    You really shouldn't be avoiding anyone. Lot's of guys comment that they go in a club and leave because girls don't approach them.

    Can you honestly tell me that young white guys all like skinny girls with big boobs, or that all mexican guys are not going to buy dances? Of course not.

    Your job as a dancer is to in a non biased, friendly way approach every customer, introduce yourself, ask the customer(s) their names, where they are from and make some small talk, and then ask for the dances.

    Now there are some customers I would approach first before I approach others.

    1. When you are on stage, guys that tip you steadily or more than others,
    and guys that give you eye contact. Approach them as you are
    scooping up your tips and tell them to move away from the tip rail so you
    can talk. Then sell them dances.

    2.Guys sitting alone. No matter what ethnicity, these guys are more apt to
    buy.
    3.Guys looking around that have no one sitting with them.

    Just follow that list and don't prejudge or discriminate. Approach everyone and make a concerted effort to sell them. if they tell you to come back late, come back later and aggressively try to sell them.

    You don't know how much money a person has or is willing to spend by just looking at them do you?

    Just focus on guys not in groups first.

    I agree with Vyanka....

    Never judge a book by it's cover. Although, I do notice that when I am making big bucks off a guy, he has on nice shoes... Not worn out sneakers with dried paint on them.... lol

    LOL I agree with Silky. Desiree if that avatar is you then you look like a skinny blonde.

    As a customer, I think #3 on Tina's list is a 100% right on. I don't know how often, I've gone to a club by myself and sat alone and looked around and never got approached once.

    Oh well.

    i usually avoid the guys who avoid me, but then sometimes later on in the shift the "mean" guy will come up to me and ask for a dance, and ask me why i never asked him for a dance as if he was sending me positive signals the whole time! I hate that! why do some guys act like that?

    My clubbing preference when I am on the road is to find the smartest dancer I can find in the club and pay her to sit with me and talk. It's an easy way for a dancer to make a lot of money and take a load off the shoes for a while.

    If the mood is right, we play the "will he buy a dance" game. The two of us bet on whether a dancer in front of us is going to succeed in closing with the guy she is trying to sell a dance to. The dancer sitting with me always kicks my ass in this game. You'd think I'd learn not to keep betting when I obviously lack the skills at it.

    What trips me up is that I keep making judgments about how much money I think he has rather than the clues on whether he will spend it. It's a form of projection, I guess -- I always dress very well when I go into the clubs and get a lot of attention as a result; I don't think I've ever waited for more than 10 minutes for somebody to approach me in any club, anywhere (and in Vegas, I don't even make it to a table). And of course, I spend a lot of money, ergo well-dressed guys spend money. What a dope I am.

    Once in a while my dancer will take pity on me and say, "don't judge a book by its cover." I never learn.

    I'm not trying to be racist, prejudice, biast or anything of the sort. I just wanted to know some other opinions on this matter. In my experience, you never really know if a young guy has money.... its just that they dont spend it at strip clubs as readily as older men, since they "can get it at a normal night club for free"

    On a similar token, how many times have I gone to the mall in my sweatpants, walked into Nordstroms with over a grand in cash that I intend to spend, and walked out without buying a single thing -- just because the sales people judged me on my appearance and assumed since I was young and not well dressed, that I wouldnt spend any money.

    Who knows.......

    feel the fabric of his shirt. Nice shoes?

    Also, you can tell the first 2 minutes talking to him, whether he has money or not, and if he has a problem with spending it.

    If he's a braggard, make him show you the money!!

    From what I've heard, a lot of customers already have a set idea how much they're going to spend before they come. I think less about how much money they have than about whether they're likely to spend it *on me.* I guess you should be able to dance for anyone, but there will always be certain types of guys that go crazy for you. It won't necessarily be the guys in the snazzy suits. It isn't for me, most of the time.

    I've been surprised enough times that now I try to talk to everybody. One of the first days I worked, a guy came in who looked like a redneck Satan. I was actually a little bit afraid to talk to him. When I finally went over, he was super nice and bought dances from me for the rest of the night.

    A note on shoes, sometimes folks like myself come in before work, and we have our work shoes on. Those shoes aren't the greatest looking ones, but they work for me while I'm at work. So going by shoes or other visual details may not always work.

    this is tricky... well-dressed does not always mean "has money" or better yet, "is willing to spend his money." I tend to gravitate towards the older businessmen, but that does not always work.

    Good example: a couple of weeks ago, it was slow and the club was mostly regulars who weren't even drinking. Then these two rough, construction worker-looking guys came in and were just hooting and hollering like they were having such a good time. So i figured "what the hell, at least i'll have fun with them." It turned out that one of the guys was a very successful business owner - a trucking company (explaining the rough look) and had a pocket full of hundreds. It certainly paid off to approach him - but I would have never expected it from his looks.

    I'm sure all of you ladies have similar stories Don't judge a book by its cover... you don't know what's in its pockets
