    Default A variation on charging for chat time

    I'm fairly new to dancing (about 2 months total in clubs). We don't have a drink hustle, but LOTS of guys offer to buy me a drink when the waitress come around. Honestly, I don't drink much if at all at work and I certainly don't want the 50 drinks I get offerred in a night. I would much rather have the $6-10.

    I was wondering if I could say, "You know, I really don't drink much, but I'd love to sit and chat for the cost of a drink."

    Collect $10, chat for 5 minutes or so, maybe give a very brief table dance on my way out. What do you all think of this?

    Depends on the club. I know here at my club, I maek commission off my drinks , so I choose to drink them. This helps keep the club fees lower b.c the owner is makeing money too. We had several girls stop selling drinks and take the money., Now we have to pay for each lap dance which pisses me off, but.... again, I make 1/2 the drink $$ and usually dont pay anything out of pocket to the club.

    There are two problems I see with this. One, your club might get pissed off if they find out you are turning down drinks because drinks are a way for them to make money. If you don't want to drink alcohol, you could always just tell the bartender beforehand that you want all your drinks to be non-alcoholic. Some places will not let you refuse a drink at all.

    The second problem is that when a customer offers you a drink, it is his way of being friendly and sociable, bonding with you, getting to know you, etc. By saying that you don't want the drink but you'll chat for a while for the cost of the drink, it could come across as negative to the customer and make it seem like you're all about the money. We are all about the money, but the trick is to not make it seem like it.

    Something that might work if you are sitting at a table with a guy, out of earshot from the bartender or cocktail waitress, is to say something like this if he offers you a drink:

    "Sure! Why don't you sit and relax and I'll go get the drink, because I have to run to the ladies' room anyways! I'll be right back!" Then go up to the bar, just order a water or soda, and pocket the money for yourself. Then go back and sit with the custy for a little bit, drink the drink relatively quickly, then ask for the dance.

    My take - that is fine, but chances are good that guys who will do that would give you the money anyway. I don't know why, but for some reason guys would rather give the club money than us. It makes no sense, but a guy who will happily fork out $8 plus tip for a cheap and crappy martini will not want to just hand you $10. So the "bites" you get with this are likely to be the guys who would buy both. Now, you are under no obligation to put the earnings of the club over your own earnings. However, if you are setting up a situation in which only you can make money, when both of you COULD you are making the relationship needlessly adversarial. And because club owners and managers are largely stupid (no offense to those of you that aren't - but you know damn well that your brethern are largely stupid) we cannot rely on them to be sensible and non-adversarial - in fact we can generally rely on them to be the opposite.

    Ok, 50 might have been a slight exaggerration! But, without hyperbole, I do get offerred 20 drinks in a night--at the least. I don't really do anything. It's just the culture of the club, I guess. When the waitress comes around she'll ask the guy if he's doing ok. Whether he orders or declines, she'll slyly motion to me with her head like, "And for the lady???" They usually catch on and offer.

    Oh--I forgot...when I DO want a drink I talk about how nervous I am because I just started and I can't decide if a drink would help me or if it would be a bad idea because I get really CRAZY when I drink!! Oh my goodness, you should have seen what happened last weekend...(make up story) That always works.

    I figured it was an exaggeration but I believe you it feels like 50 times... because that's about the times I'm asked out for breakfast

    If the guy offers to buy you a drink, would it be okay to specifically order something non-alcoholic? I sometimes turn down drinks, because I feel like they want me to order alcohol and get me drunk. So, I thought asking for soda, water or Red Bull might be the same as saying no thanks to a drink.

    ^^^ Yeah most of them want to get me drunk... I'm sure they want any of the girls to get drunk. They offer me a drink, I ask for water and they act like they won't be me a drink unless it's got alcohol in it... um then why bother offering to buy me a drink? Sorry, I'm just frustrated! Lots of bad nights for this poor girl.

    Order a red bull. The club is usually happy and they will give you a perk up.

    I think the OP is saying that she doens't want the drink because she just would rather have the money than the drink....not because she doesn't want the alcohol.

    There are two other things you can say....
    "you know, I don't really drink and I dont' want you to waste $6 on a bottle of water that I don't really want. If you'd like to spend a little money on me, why don't you spend a little on yourself, get a dance and make us both happy."

    or....
    "I'd love to have a drink with you. I know a private place where we can have drinks and do some dances."

    if the club gets mad because you don't sell a drink, fuck them! Unless you are forced to sell drinks, then you are there to make money for yourself first!

    That's what I was thinking...some men respect that this is a business, but alot more look at buying a girl a drink as a nice gesture to bring more conversation, if only for a little while. So instead of requesting money over the "conversation drink" yea I agree, they will immediately write you off as just wanting money.

    Also, Emily's post was a good one too
