I have had a fantastic 6 weeks since i went to Costa Rica. I finally passed the 1k mark for one night, and I hit my best week, and then surpassed a couple times for my record of 3k+ in one week. Keep in mind I am on summer break, so I have been working a lot, in the 3k week i work 47 hours in 5 days. But I also have a crappy pay out scheme at my club. Oh well, I will be moving at the end of the summer, so i am going to stay at my club with my regs until then.
In any case, I thought maybe I'd share some stuff I have learned.
1. Always be nice, even when the guy is being grabby or kind of a dick. He is probably drunk, deal with whatever he dishes out respectfully and he will probably respond in a similar way. Getting mad or bitchy doesn't get you anywhere. Smiling gets you far.
2. Making connections: I always insert a "secret" into the convo so that we establish a connection. Usually a joke related to stripping, like "I'm an exotic dancer, promise you won't tell anyone." Or I will ask if they are an exotic dancer, and I swear up and down that I won't tell anyone. It is funny in context, and it helps let their guard down.
3. Guard your regs! Just cause he comes in to see you doesn't mean another girl isn't able to snag him. Beware the sharks circling.
4. Make friends with your managers and floormen, and tip them out well. I got to be known as the champagne room girl, and not cause I give extras. Now I get tips on good custies all the time. Sometimes before they get there.
5. Work with other girls. A two girl room is so much easier to handle and will most likely go for an hour or more. Only with girls that you trust, talk to them about it before hand. And they will pull you into their rooms too. I have a few girls that I work with, and I trust them and have built good relationships. And I make a lot of money with them, so it is all good.
6. Go home when you get tired. And eat something at work. Simple really, makes a huge difference.
7. Selling rooms: make sure all customers know about the rooms. If yours are really expensive like mine (from 400-600 the half hour) then physically giving them a tour of the more expensive rooms will help you sell the upgrades moreso then just telling them about it. I will give tours after dances, it doesn't work every time. But it takes all of 60 seconds, worth it.
8. Know your rooms, the champange it comes with, etc. Present things like you are getting them a "deal". Like, This room is $600, look at how big it is and I can even talk them into a bottle of Dom too! Or open bar for the half hour or whatever.
9. Never ask for a dance. Always present it in the closed question kind of way that leads to a yes. After the first dance I will always say, "This is song #2" or 3 or whatever. I only ask if the want to continue when I really don't want to give them another dance.
10. If you have to go onstage, or for small clubs, learn at least two flashy pole or floor tricks that other girls don't know how to do that will make you stand out. Or use a song if you can that is really different. I like Amy Winehouse right now for my style, it is usually totally different from the hip hop or rock that most girls play.
11. In a joking way, I will tell guys that flattery gets them big points if they pay me a compliment or laughing at my jokes is the best. I have noticed that it gets them more focused on my good points and focuses the convo in a positive direction.
12. Use a neutral accent, don't use a lot of slang and especially not cursing. It turns a lot of guys off.
13. Make notes on your custies, the good spending ones! I have done this forever, but I really needed it lately.
14. Know how to focus your time. I have pulled many guys that seemed reluctant into the vip because I invested a little extra time into working on them. You know you have the ability to make them spend, but in my environment jumping around from guy to guy too frequently doesn't make as much money as getting it out of the big spender.
15. You can make money even if the club looks dead, my best nights are Tuesdays and Fridays. Don't bitch, stay focused. Work with what you have.
And get your ass to work. So many girls I work with will have one great night and not come to work for a week, or will only come to work when they are broke. I have been setting high goals for savings and vacation, and it sometimes makes me panic a little because they are so frigging high, but I don't actually need that money to survive. Just once i have a goal, I am gonna damn well meet it.
That's it, hope this helps.
