    Default How long did it take for your earnings to peak?

    Experienced dancers are probabally the ones who can best answer this question.

    How long did it take for your earnings to peak?

    Was it a month, a year after you first started?

    I've been dancing full time for half a year, and the money is still VERY unpredictable.

    How long did it take until you had consistant good nights, or at least a predictable average? What do you think changed?

    Thanks!

    I only have predictable $ in the summer, when I know I will make $. In alaska I averaged (fridays and saturdays) around $700-$800. Weekdays is hard to say. Maybe like 300$ working like 2 or 3 days a week. Here in Baltimore, I made anywhere from $700-$1000 fridays and saturdays. Only in the summer though!

    Wow...in my 10 months of dancing I never made consistant money. Maybe just maybe on Friday nights and Saturday nights but any other day of the week was way up in the air.

    This is interesting, since my summer was much much better than the winter too. What do you think accounts for this?

    My theory was that I work harder when I am not in school in the summer, but that's just me...

    Back when i started $800 take home nightly was damn good! Then along came other "types" of dancers. SO i increased my earnings by going high mileage!

    Now i club dance now and again. But to stop soon. I did invest alot. Or rather i was pretty ignorant,and my mother did it for me. Anyway, i now escort and do private parties. I am content, stop anytme, as i see i will be doing...It's been a long hard trip!

    Stage dancing was the best!!!

    I just changed with the times, earnings are always there, it just depends on what you will do.

    My earnings are 80% consistent here locally in Austin. Weekends, after house fees and tipout, I average bet $100-150 an hour. Weekdays is $50-$100. I put in about 6-7 hours on average.

    Its taken me almost 7 years of mostly part-time dancing to be able to come to this average. The other 20% is unpredictable because I can land a whale OR make crap on a dead night.

    Keep a spreadsheet of your earnings and graph it out. You will eventually be able to see a pattern........

    The really big-boobed dancers I worked with in Vegas did REALLY well and consistently......

    Been doing it for over 3 years.... and I think I've missed my peak. My earnings at my home club are up and down.... I can pretty much usually guarantee myself $200 even on a really bad sloooooooooow night... yet due to burn-out mixed with the fact that all the dancers are back from their holidays with the school year just starting here... my earnings recently havn't been so crash hot.

    Regardless, pretty much August - 2nd week of Janurary is a good time to work on the Gold Coast. My earnings were more consistant at my previous club when it was "the" club.
