i know this may sound "obvious" but i really started to think about something.
when it's slow and you see those guys you "know" won't buy dances. you know the ones, you can tell they aren't going to spend much, if anything. maybe it's because you've seen them before or maybe they've been there awhile and you can tell they're "time wasters". so what do you do? you ignore them because you don't want to be "stuck" with them should someone better come in. or maybe you do the quick "wanna dance" hustle instead.
well i have a new plan for "these guys". i've started trying to hustle dollars out of them. quick little saying hellos and cute comments work best. i don't "stay and sit" because i still don't want to get stuck. i don't try to get them to buy dances (unless it looks like it'll go that way) and i don't try to get them to come up to the stage (god forbid they walk). instead i try to get a buck or two out of them right then and there.
seems like trouble for nothing? that's what i thought too. that was untill i did some math.
say you are able to "bleed" just 5 bucks a day total from time wasters when it's slow and you have nothing else to do.
say you work 5 shifts a week.
that winds up being 100 dollars a month.
or... say you're able to get 10 bucks every shift total from guys like this, and say you only work 3 shifts a week, that's 120 bucks a month.
you bleed them out of 10 bucks a day and you work 5 shifts a week, you now have 200 bucks more a month... etc.
i always knew in the back of my head "it all adds up" but i never really did the math. maybe 100-200 more a month doesn't seem like a lot to you, but to me, that's my phone bill at least or my car insurance bill at best.
so from now on i think "those guys are going to pay for my car insurance"
