    Default who to approach

    How do you select who to approach? Do you guys approach any guy in the club or stick with the ones that make eye contact/smile at you? I usually only approach guys who make eye contact, and it feels like a lot of guys look away when I approach them...I don't know what to do....should i approach guys who seem not to notice me at all and continue to stare at the stage and the ones who look away or what...some nights it seems like I don't have the opportunity to be too picky with who I talk to.

    Also...I don't want to look like I'm stuck up or something by not talking to someone, but I usually look for some sort of a spark of interest from them.

    When it's busy, there's always someone watching who's interested. While I am doing my pitch, I use my peripheal vision to see who else is checking me out, or I do it while facing the other way doing dances. If nobody is giving me direct signals, I approach everyone, saving the guys who turn their heads for last. It's not just who you approach but HOW you approach that matters. I act like they're coming to my party and I'm happy to see them. When I used to be shy and intimidated, guys weren't as interested and were harder to sell to.

    I usually approach everyone. You never know for sure who has the money and is ready to spend it.

    Just because you don't think a customer is interested doesn't mean that he isn't. Approach everyone, when you sit down to talk to someone be friendly and don't make it seem like all you want is the money, if they say no, thank them and "check" on them through the shift. Stop by and ask them occasionally if they're having a good time etc., sometimes guys just want to feel like you give a sh*t and you're not just hustling. You may end up getting a dance from them later.

    Never leave a customer in a rude manner if you can help it!

    Re: who to approach

    Hello:
    I have 2 ideas for you.I approach the men who look interested first and then move on to the others.
    But I make my money by going for the "Neglected" guys.You will always see these guys that come in the club that the girls avoid (I.E. too fat,old,repulsive and etc) I just get over it and treat them like George Clooney,they love it and 9 times out of 10 I have made ALOT of money this way.We had a really slow night a few weeks ago and I opted to sit with the"Neglected" guy and he bought 10!!!!! dances plus a $50 tip.This works for me,I hope it will for you too.

    Yup. I do this, too -- pretend I'm the hostess of a party and it's my job to make sure everyone's having a good time. This helps me approach guys. As to who to approach and in what order, I make a beeline for:

    Regulars of mine (duh)

    Guys who are obviously checking me out and/or tipped me onstage (duh again)

    Guys who have been sitting by themselves for a while without being approached (these guys often take WAY less "closing" cause they're afraid you're going to disappear and leave them alone for another forty minutes.)

    Guys who are "rubber-necking", i.e. checking out every girl who walks past (these guys, for whatever reason, are desperate for attention/dances. Got this from Dancerwealth. Genius!)

    Guys who fit a certain profile that I'm usually successful with (probably different for everyone, but for me: cowboys, white-collar geeks, and non-English speaking Mexicans.)

    And this one's the wierdest: guys sitting in certain seats. No idea why this is true, but there are a couple of tables I can't lose with, and a couple where I can never win. Go figure.)
