I'm thinking about giving gifts to a few of my favorite customers. What would be a nice small token of appreciation?
Save your jokes, guys. Save your jokes. And no, I'm not giving free dances.

Money clip, pockt knife, pen





Just like anyone else, if she didn't pay attention in the last 6 months to what I need and want, she won't know what to get... of course any token is good, it's the thought that counts as the cliche goes... for a generic present, a money clip is certainly good for someone who is in a sc dealing with a wad of cash all the time





I bought my millionaire regular who gives me good money a Polo shirt on sale for $35 and a $20 Dolce and Gabanna antiperspirant deodorant stick. (My fiancee' never used that brand and wanted to keep it). LOL.
The owner of my best club I gave a Nautica shirt that was regularly $49, on sale for $24.50, and my long time regular who spends well when he has it, a Nautica cap on sale for $12.50, and one of those nose, ear, and eyebrow hair trimmers like you see on TV that WalMart has for under $7. ( he get's kind of hairy sometimes). LOL.
I usually buy a designer brand item like Polo, Nautica, Tommy, because you can always find a nice shirt in these brands for $15-$25 in Ross, Macys, Dillards, TJ Maxx etc. Buying a good brand shows your integrity and it is easy to find a nice shirt for 1/3 to 1/2 off or more. Sometimes Iwill throw in a pair of designer brand socks that I get at Ross or TJ Maxx/Marshalls for $4 or so.





Well, if your club disallows this, I understand. But if it is an option, consider the advantages that free dances have over giving a tangible gift.Originally Posted by Lizette
- No need to do any shopping.
- It only costs you your time, and whatever cut of a dance your club gets if any.
- You can give it in his presence. No need to worry about him disapearing and you get stuck with the gift. If he doesn't show up until Mid-January you can give it then.
- Customer doesn't have to worry about wife/GF questioning where he got the gift when he gets home.
But if you don't want to go that route, other options:
- Gift Cards to restaurants/stores he likes. I think $20-25 tops, in most cases is plenty. You can always go bigger for the whales.
- Home made baked goods, ala our good friend Kitana.
- Signed 8 x 10's of you in skimpy/seminude poses. You can even go all out and make him a full calendar, (but don't do this if he's married/committed and make sure you/your SO is okay with it as well).
- Bottle of favorite alcoholic beverage (this can get pricey though).
- Books, CD's, DVD's, software if you know what he likes.
- Movie passes
- If your club offers gift certificates/cards, you can get him one.

I gave a guy a stainless steal martini glass once.
If your bar has logo mugs or shotglasses. Maybe he would like somthing like that. It should be innocent enough he wouldn't have to hide it from anyone. Or a bottle of something you two always drink.
A bottle of your favourite cologne. What ever you decide also get a card and write a nice thank you in it.
You say psycho like it's a bad thing




What about the problem of regifting? What if he wants a return or exchange? And if he says that he just wants the cash?Originally Posted by doc-catfish





regifting -- how exactly would he do that?Originally Posted by Lizette
return or exchange -- I cant believe he'd want that -- are you really worried your regular will be disappointed with your lap dance? ... and again, how would he do that?
he wants the cash -- throw it in is as a christmas bonus after he's already bought a few -- he won't want the cash

Lol, well depending on the reg I usually make chocolates, and candies. but for one particular reg I love dearly; I make a huge pot of chicken and dumplins.
He's a single guy who's not the best cook, lol. So I make enough that he doesn't have to cook or eat out for a few days.
Have you considered making some sweet treats for him? Most guys love sweet munchies.

There was a similar discussion a couple of months ago titled " A gift for my regular" in this section. I dont know how to link other discussions but there were some great gift ideas in it.
The most appealing gifts had some relevance to the individual punter's passions in life like sports etc. The nicest gift I received from someone i knew ITC was a signed photo with a few flirtatious words.
To end, the SCJ's I know would value a gift from a dancer they spend a lot of time with, irrespective of what the gift is.

yeah, I'd go with some free dances if it's allowed. Honestly, it's what he'd probably appreciate the most and be most likely to want to make him keep coming.
you could always give a nice polo scarf or even a candle. i got a lot of the Havana candle from the Bombay Company for my cigar smoking regulars!
A nice card, with his name in it would be very nice all by itself.
Any little home made treat, chocolate chip or Christmas cookies would be very sweet too.
We're there to spend money on you, not vice versa, so make it small and personal or funny. Who needs another generic 'executive gift' pen knife?
anyway, that's what would float my boat.
btw, the chicken and dumplings thing is over the top, dang, that's the nicest thing I ever heard of, that guy must LOVE coming to see you Kitana!!!!!!!!!!


hopless romantic stole my thunder on this one, but what a classy thing to do!Originally Posted by kitana
I'm thinkin' you're trying to get me to fall for you, what a gem.
Giving something thoughtful at this time of year shows how important your customers are, expecially the ones that carry you all year long. A little goes a long way!

What's wrong with you guys? I have not seen ONE CUSTY POSTER propose gift giving to their professional stripper of choice.
After looking at the complimentary thread on this topic, I read a bit about the theories of gift giving, and was confounded at the complexity of it.
Perhaps the "traditional business model" I mentioned in the other thread:
Kitana really and truly fucks up such a scientific and clinical analysis by having a big heart.

Ooh boy.
With respect to this being a stripper board, and certain topics on the board not remotely related to gift giving (one of which is floating around in SG right now), I'm not even sure I wanna touch that.

I travel a lot for business and I love coffee. The first gift I ever got from a dancer was a collection of international coffees and a cool travel type coffee mug that had a heating element built in. I haven't seen the dancer in years but I still think of her everytime I use the mug.
I wear cologne and always get compliments from my favs about smelling good. I get a least a couple of interesting fragrances a year for birthday or xmas gifts.
It doesn't have to cost a lot of money. Personalizing a gift is not always easy but it goes a long way with most people. OTOH, any customer should be happy that one of his favs is thinking of him at all when she's not on his lap counting how many dances he's bought so far.
I was at my club last night where they let me in with no cover charge. The bartender gave my first drink on the house, and then a dancer who was pretty new there gave an extra dance. It was a very nice way for the club to show their appreciation of your patronage.




Well if you have been paying attention to your regular or ATF then you already know what their interests are. In past xmas's i've gotten items related to things my former ATF's and i joked about or talked in depth about. Some were "gag" gifts related to those interests. A card at least, of course. A book, a super ugly tie for grins and make him wear it, a starbucks gift card or special coffee beans if thats his thing, a special DVD or CD he talks about but does not have, tickets to a sporting event, comedy show or play, a much bigger wallet to hold more money (gag gift or ulterior motive?).

It may be better to give than to receive, but even better is to give and receive
At one club I worked at, this is what I did. Sometimes, when I was in the mood, I would go the club's cubboard and steal the nice handkerchiefs they had. They always gave them to special customers.
I put on a heavy coat of lipstick, make a lip print on the handkerchiefs and give to my favorite customers.
Yeah, cheap, and effective.
