    Default my first night sucked!...help!

    I worked my very first night as a dancer last night and I feel like I failed miserably!
    Its a newer club in vegas and its actually really small. Looks massive from the outside. anyhow, there were sooooooo many girls and not a lot of guys. the ratio was frightning. I sat at the bar most of the night and i was rather intimidated. The guys that were in there were either drunk and young or old and bitter. I barely made what it cost me to work and to add to it I had numerous customers ask for extras. This club is FOR SURE not an extra club. The management made that very clear to me. So i started getting discouraged after the third or fourth time of somebody asking me for sex or blowjobs or the young ones asking how the sex part works. I am above average looking so i guess i just thought it would be easier.... i dont really know what to do...anybody have any suggestions? I feel lost on what to do at this point. I am new so my hustle kind of sucks but i think my looks make up for it a bit. I tried to be really positive and flirty but all of them seem to be broke or I just cant get franklin out of their pocket (lol)

    HELP!!

    it'll get better. Sometimes you meet all the douchebags in one night. Unfortunately for you, it was your first night.

    Maybe you should try to avoid the young ones?

    You'll get over your intimidation, but that was most likely a factor.

    My first night was terrible. I made $28 -- I'd paid more than that for my shoes! It DOES get better. I think there is some mythical thinking out there about first nights stripping...that you get showered with money and praise and excitement and everything is wonderful. It may work like that for some girls, on some nights, at some clubs, but most new girls I've seen are pretty lost on their first day. There are a lot of skills to learn, and your hustling will get better with practice.

    I got asked for extras more when I was newer. True pervs can tell which girls are new and will pressure them for hj's, bj's, etc. They're counting on new girls being unfamiliar with the rules or too scared to say no. As you become more confident, requests will become less frequent. At least, that's how it worked for me.

    Anyway, don't beat yourself up. You took the plunge and went in to work, and that's a big step. Congratulations! Now you can start polishing your skills.

    I am gearing up for my first night in Vegas next week.

    I have been dancing for two months now. My first night, I got lucky because I told all of my friends to come it. That support helped me and the moeny was easy and decent. But I have had plenty of my off nights too. It seems like you reach that point where all of a sudden you go "Ah Hah!" and then it all makes sense.

    I am not the type of girl who goes around asking point blankly if guys want a dance. It's too easy to say no to. I give them a song or two to feel them out and then I ask if they are ready to have some fun with me. By that time, you both know if you guys want to spend more time together. If not, you move on and nothing lost...

    i would think it would be easier to get a drunk guys money.. lol... but i am only 19 so i wouldnt know about working in a 21+ topless club

    but i have lived in vegas my whole life and have been dancing since december 2005... from what ive heard from my close friend who dances.. with her better than "average" looks she said she makes more money at a fully nude 18+ club.. less competition maybe? it probably a little different of a hustle too...

    the club i work at does alot of hustling for you.. they sell dances for you as well ...

    maybe try again for a weekend and see if it makes up for it.. or maybe try another club... what is vegas for anyways??? lol! peacE!!!!!!

    Don't get caught thinking that you can coast on your looks. Your looks got you hired, but your money will have to come from your hustle.

    My first night was pretty shitty too (that was years ago now...ugh). It'll get better, you just have to keep trying.

    I have had days like this too! And I never know when it will happen. The ratio of girls to guys can be difficult sometimes. And I am intimidated too... just kind of force yourself to say hi no matter what to somebody who is sitting alone (it is sometimes hard to tell who will spend money) just make conversation first and ask if you can sit down.

    Even if the person says sure have a seat, no thank you I'm sitting with somebody else, or asks for a date or sex, just kindly reply no (to the last one) I can't do that, and if it persists, walk away and some other girl will eventually occupy him. I have always found even if a guy was rude to me, kindness is still great to show them, but walking away is the best if the situation is able to be handled.

    Vegas customers have the (mis)conception that prostitution is legal, and the the clubs are full of hookers. Sure, there are clubs that you can get extreme extras, and most of the clubs have at least 10% of their dancers available for OTC work.

    You have to look at it like a game. You lost badly the last time you played (worked). Learn to talk in circles so that you aren't actually promising anything, but at the same time making it sound like you are open to the idea of going home with the customer. For in-club extra requests, say something like vice is leaning heavy on the clubs right now, but vice NEVER goes back to the Champange room. You still haven't promised anything. A drunk customer will draw a connection between your offer of VIP and the possibility of extras. When you are in VIP give your customer a regular dance, but make him feel that you are crossing the line. Act like you never go this far with the guys etc.

    Your customer will be happy, you'll make $$ and you won't have to do anything you aren't comfortable with!


    Promote yourself and earn more money! This is a business that is owned by strippers for strippers. Let's make that money!

    I love that. I did something similar yesterday and it worked smoothly. He looked frustrated but not angry.
