    Smiley Dancers: What makes a customer memorable to you, in the good way?

    I got to thinking about this during my just-completed trip to Vegas. I hadn't been there for eight months, but when I went out to a couple of clubs, I was spotted and remembered by dancers whom I'd only met once, either on that last trip or previous ones, and they were able to remember specific details from the conversations we had in our initial meeting. (Heck, I even got recognized by face by a cashier who'd changed clubs, and had only seen me once on the way in, and once on the way out.)

    I'm sure you're asking, "The_Oceans, how much money did you drop on these ladies?" The answer would be a couple of VIP sessions (so $200+tip) at the very most. Not an insignificant amount of money, but I also don't think it's all that extraordinary...I would consider myself a "medium roller".

    So to the dancers out there, outside of the money aspect, what are the things you see in your infrequent customers that create a good impression for the next time he makes a surprise visit?

    A man who is a gentleman. One who does not touch without asking where he's allowed. One who lets the dancer give a dance rather than trying to see how much mileage he can get out of one song (ugh!). A man who is clean, takes care of himself, smells nice, and is complimentary. Another words, a man who understands that we are selling a fantasy, and he respects the dancer for that.

    Strip clubs are no place for fantasy. Here is the relevant link.

    I'm like that, I'm terrible with names, but I can remember faces and details of conversations I've had. It can be kind of funny sometimes when I'm out with friends and know a little bit about some obscure topic. They'll look at me and say, "where did you hear that?". I'll answer, "oh, well I met this customer once who was a...".

    I know you said outside of the money aspect, but honestly what makes a customer memorable are the three C's of a good customer:

    Cleanliness, Courtesy, & Cash.

    Holy crap, I would think this is Customer Conduct 101! I'm sorry to hear, tampadancer, that this is what makes a guy STAND OUT in the crowd. As for the touching/mileage part, I've found it can be a chemistry thing. Most of the gals I have become irregularly regular with in the club (meaning that I'm not in town often, but when I am, you know where I'll be) still have enough comfort with me to allow my unspoken testing of boundaries, with the implicit understanding that I won't tread where I'm not wanted.

    Destiny, the reason the question was phrased with "besides the money aspect" is because IMO, the cash transaction is a given. I subscribe to the belief that it's a lot easier for dancers to remember the guy who dropped $1K on them in champagne room than the guy who bought them a drink at the bar and a couple of dances or a first-tier VIP. I am one of the latter, or at least closer to the latter, but am still (pleasantly) surprised when someone would rather spend time with me than with a big spender.

    (Heh, maybe I should just bless my luck and not share the secrets )

    Treat the ladies with respect and treat them as buddies, not potential girlfriends, and you will stand out because so few customers act that way.

    We all live in a fantasy world. The biggest fantasy of all is kidding yourself that you know what reality is, or that there is such a thing. We each make our own reality.

    There isn't anything the least bit real about so-called reality TV. It's entertainment, just like a strip club.

    I disagree wholeheartedly, and I think most people would. To each his own though.

    My answer to the question? I suppose like most other jobs, a nice bloke, someone who makes you feel good about yourself. It's a bit easier for me as I'm not allowed to touch and they're not allowed to touch, so that's a potential complexity avoided.

    The obvious response is someone who spends money. More importantly, someone who treats me like a lady. If I have a lot in common with a customer, I spend more time with them and in turn remember them. I need to be treated with respect, otherwise I don't care how much money you have and you are flushed from my memory banks. Making me laugh is another good way.

    I write down the names and information of all the NICE people I meet, regardless if they buy a dance. The DIPSHITs, I remember their faces so I know whom to avoid.
