I have to follow up with my Facebook Status from last Saturday night:  hitting the strip clubs tonight as a customer to observe how dancers sell to couples and to to the blog entry I posted last week entitled Selling To Valentine’s Couples.  We hit two clubs in the West Valley, got out of our chairs to walk to the stage to tip the dancers we would be interested in buying dances from….and not a single dancer approached us.  Read more...

Last week I was reading some statistics about social networking that reminded me of the Atlanta Journal Constitution article entitled  Hard times push more women to strip clubs.   If you don’t recall, I pulled a quote from that article  two weeks ago.

I’m going to pull another quote from the same article and then reference the stats I found.

“Those who do wind up working in the business soon learn that even nude dancers have to work harder these days, as patrons spend less and don’t return as often.

It’s the eighth and final week of SuperStripper Summer Secrets!  You  have all of your basic skills down by now, you know how they work together, and are working towards making them more automatic and polished.

This week work on your planned responses.  This way, when any situation comes up, when a customer says something odd to you, or responds to your closing techniques in strange ways you are prepared.

In Week 7 you are going to begin developing your skills as an entertainer to a whole new level.  Start researching ways you can be more entertaining…not just someone dancing with her top off.

By now you are ready to start moving on to some core conversation techniques designed to change the way you speak to people in very powerful ways.  This week you need to start working on your skills of redirecting communication.  If you let your customer take charge of the conversation, you may not be able to bring the conversation back to lapdances in order to close that sale

One of the principles we emphasize in DancerWealth is the Pareto Principle, sometimes commonly referred to as the 80/20 rule.  It’s not really something you can measure, nor is it scientifically accurate, but it can be applied to the strip club in two different ways.

The first way applies to customers: 80% of your profits come from 20% of your customers.  This means that regulars are the bread and butter of your earnings.  An entertainer that relies on hustling the floor 100% of the time is going to be discouraged right now.  Its summer, its a recession, and I could go on and on with all the gripes I hear in the locker room.  Read more...

Now that you have mastered the previous three weeks of  skills, you are beginning to understand how to build a conversation towards a closing line.  This is particularly effective during the slower season when you don’t have enough people in the club to rely on the easy Busy Club Hustling Strategies we cover in SuperStripper Club Scenarios.  When the club is slow, and the dancers outnumber the customers, it is YOUR job to set yourself apart from everyone else who just says, “Wanna dance?” and then walks away.
