    Default Regular calls to Custy?

    Do you guys keep a "little black book" of custy's numbers, etc.? Do you call them on a regular basis to entice back to the club? Does it work in drawing in more business? I am thinking of doing this and am just not sure how I want to go about it?
    Any ideas, anyone?

    if a customer spends a few hundred on me at one time, I'll take his number and call him in to work when I'm there. It makes him feel close to you, even though he isnt at all. Most of my customers are older men, so I think it fills a void of lonliness they may have, to have the attention and think they are wanted by a young woman. I don't think there is anything wrong with "little black books".

    I've always thought that calling customers was an extremely bad idea. It's one thing to shoot him an email once in a while, but I think calling transcends the acceptable behavior of dancers. Let me ask you this...you call the guy and his wife answers? Are you going to sleep well at night knowing you may have just wrecked this guys' marriage? What if it's a work number and his office now has to deal with this? He may have never thought you were calling and here he is, with a client and he gets a call and it's an exotic dancer bugging him at work? Like I said, it's one thing to send a simple email once in a while but going into phone calls is pushing it a bit much.

    Some guys have separate phones, though, for "entertainment". I'd just make sure that he was definitely ok with you calling and whether some times are better than others. Otherwise, start a yahoo group and keep it private access only for those regs and put your schedule up!

    If a customer gives me his number I usually ask if it's really okay if I call him, and make sure it's his own private cell phone. There have only been like three customers that I've ever actually called, because I don't want most of them to get my number. So far it's worked out well, they seem to appreciate the calls and almost without fail will come in and see me that week. Email is a good idea, but most of my good customers have been on the older side and have never really gotten into the email thing.

    I don't think DW is giving us enough credit. London is right on. My concern is if you call a customer than you need to be available to the customers you called. Imagine being called to a table were the money is just flowing and our custy you called walked in. What do you do? Do you upset the custy your with by telling him you are busy now or do you ignore the person you called?

    I most definitely would make sure it was OK and that it was a private number!! Just not sure how effiective. How often would be good? I just not sure how to go about it. Guess I will have to work out the details.

    I only call one very good customer, if he comes in and spends a lot of money on me I'll call him the next day and say " thank you I had a great time last night looking foward to next time....". Almost gives him the illusion we were on a date or something. He has been coming to see me for one year now , theses phone calls are 5 minutes long but I am sure they are what is paying the rent every month.

    Last time a dancer called me regularly she would also call like every other regular she knew too. Sometimes I'd come in and she would ignore me until it was my "turn". I felt that it was fairly mean on many occassions eventhough I knew she was just bad at scheduling her time. I usually felt when this happened that she was being disrespectful of my time and once in awhile I'd get in her face and tell her so. So this tactic can backfire, and while it may stroke your ego that some stipper is calling YOU once you see it for what it is the dancer just seems fake and lame.

    I agree with DW. An email is good enough. I only have about 4 regular customers that I keep in contact with. They're not married or anything but email works just fine.

    I am so picky about the phone call thing that I take their card but I won't call unless they spend a few hours in a room with me. I have ran into the "lets meet outside guys" too much so I'm cautious. Otherwise, I call as soon as I get out of the room from the dressing room and leave a message thanking them for coming in and I would love to see them again AT THE CLUB. I make sure I leave my set days I work on there and leave it at that. They either call or don't. I have had great success with this and alot of repeat business.

    I generally don't call them in. I do call randomly and say hi whether its on the voicemail or actually getting to speak to them. I don't mention please come in or anything like that I just say hey and catch up quickly, this generally gets a response of when are you working again? I think I'll stop by. Then its their idea not yours and you are guilty if your busy when they stop in.

    I have only developed the phone call relationship with a few VERY good regulars who come in fairly often and would only call 1 on any given night I would be working. I also do not think it's fair to call every guy you know to come in every night because I am also very impatient, so I can imagine what it must be like to make people wait who came in specifically for you! My reg understood that he was my 'fave' for the night but that I might go work the floor every now and then but come back to them and theyd buy more dances in bulk, every half hr or so unless we did a champagne room. Just worked out best that way. But calling 5 regs in a night other than ur bday or some other event probably isnt the best.

    Lately when guys ask for my number I just make up a lame excuse and give them my myspace.com address. This way thay can send me messages whenever, check my schedule, see pictures of me - all in a safe-and-not-too-personal environment. Personally, I just don't want to get that close to a customer, even if it would mean more money. I would feel bad if there were to be a scenario like skanklover described above - where I would call a bunch of regulars, and then they would come in and have to wait their turn. I'm also really introverted though, and hardly even call my friends!

    I seriously would recommend the myspace thing. It is free to set up an account, and you can probably find some old friends that you haven't seen in years. Local guys will find you by your photo, and then be falling all over themselves to find out where you dance. You can even post a calendar if you want people to know your schedule.

    Well, I know some of the custys aren't into email regularly. I would only call one at a time and then keep it light. Find out his schedule and then go from there.

    Never, never, never call a long list to come in all at the same time. That would, I think, create a lot of problems like discussed here that I don't want to get into.

    While not everyone may have it, e-mail is usually better than phone contact. Here's why:

    Dancer can e-mail customers her schedule, including changes/cancellations in schedule. It a lot easier to read that off a screen than hear it over the phone.
    Customer can e-mail back to her when he's available to come in.
    Both dancer and customer can check the e-mail when it is convienent (or dare I say safe) to do so.
    Setting up an e-mail account specifically to deal with this is free, as is sending the e-mail. Not so with cell phones.
    Dancer can blacklist creepy customers who try to use the contact for non-business purposes.

    While enticing a guy to come into the club might seem to make good sense, most guys tend to come in when THEY can afford to, and not when the dancer neccesarily wants them to come in. Its better to have him call you (preferably on a prepaid cell phone). This will help prevent the scenario DW described.

    And another thing, DON'T do the following. This is great way to lose regulars:

    Remember that you can only attend to one party at a time. Your regulars want dedicated time with you, not "take a number". This is where it would be a good idea to set up an appointment schedule provided that you're organized enough to do it.

    Reversed, as a customer, there are some dancers I REGRET giving my phone number... I've actually turned a dancer down before when she asked for my number.

    however, there is one dancer that has my number.. she is very cool, and I stay busy so I'm not one for the phone anyway, but she will contact me and see what I am doing.. or I will send her a text asking is she going to work.

    She is more than likely going out of town with me next week.. and I am paying for her services of course.. I don't want sex or anything, just could use the company.. and none of that would have transpired without the phone

    Yes, I agree the email has its advantages. Posting schedules, reading at own time, etc. I guess I was thinking of the calls as being more of a contacting time, chit chat, remember me? Making him want to come in. Not really out and out asking to come in at a specific time.

    I havn't read any of the replies I just wanted to post what I do:

    For regular, high spending or 'possible regular' customers I do take their number or give them mine (or have them contact me via my goldcoastgirl.info site). I only ever text/sms them and limit it to the basics: promotion of my website, where I shall be next, etc.

    If they call, I let it go to voicemail. I never EVER call them or answer phone calls from them. If they want to "talk" with me, then do so at the club.

    I'm friendly over sms/text message however will limit how much I communicate with them. I try to make sure they know that I have their number for business reasons not personal. I do not do OTC activities.

    I've stuck with e-mail so far, but am considering getting a phone for convenience. An e-mail exchange can take a few days, so it's not easy to make last-minute arrangements to meet at the club. On the other hand, I HATE talking on the phone, even to friends...just a weird phobia I have.
    At the club where I currently work, regulars are THE money. There's not a lot of foot traffic in and out of the club, and the guys who do come in randomly rarely buy dances. You have to sniff out the high-rollers and court them...stay in contact outside the club and invite them to come in and see you. The phone calls/e-mail thing might seem weird to girls who work in high-volume clubs in tourist-heavy towns, but it's an absolute necessity here.

    My club is the same way, I just tell men that I can't possibly risk my job over it. Most respect it, the ones who don't aren't worth my time anyway

    I carry two phones and one of them is my dancer phone; everyone who calls me on that phone associates me with my dancer persona. If I meet a nice custie, he gets my number and its up to him to call/text/voicemail me (so I don't bother him,all I need do is text him back when I'm at work) and I make it clear at the time that it's mainly for knowing my work schedule (not for dates, sex etc). It works well and even if you get a custy who is a pest (although I'm lucky I haven't - yet), then you can switch off your phone so he doesn't bother you. My family and friends have my other number so I am always reachable to them.

    If you call and you are afraid of the wife/boss/girlfriend/kid/whatever, just pretend it's the wrong number, or introduce yourself as a relevant person (you can "confirm" a delivery, or make up some other story, and that way you get to talk to him without others being suspicious)

    I think it's a pretty good idea to call, because if you don't he will probably NOT show up

    Customers and other assorted losers-

    The problem with trying to call and "schedule" regulars is that you never can be sure if and when he'll show up and how much he will spend. So, even if a dancer is decent at scheduling the guys, some won't show up for their slots, so she will work the room and hustle who is their. If the regular is late and she is with a guaranteed money, then regular will have to wait. This isn't your standard sales industry and the established customer doesn't mean jack shit unless dancer knows he is guaranteed to payout equally. Its an art, not a science. Trust me, if she isn't jumping up to see you as her regular, its probably because she's left guaranteed money before and gotten burned. I've been there, we've all been there. Profit maximization trumps relationship selling.
