Selling dances and VIP
Closing, pricing and getting paid up front.
Ask for the tip every time, with a reason attached, at the end of the dance or room while he is still happy. Leaving without asking is free money lost.
Keep your own tally of every dance, room and fee, and compare it line by line with the house count at cash-out. The house count is wrong often enough to matter.
A close is a next step he can take without deciding. Eight cover almost every customer: the tour, two yeses, the clock, the napkin, the group, the direct.
Sell the room as privacy, your full attention and time that is his, tied to his reason for being here. The price is a detail; what he gets is the pitch.
Extras get you fired on camera, risk the club's license, and drag every dancer's prices down. Say no with ambiguity, not a lecture, and keep the room sellable.
Club scrip and card tips pay out 15 to 30 percent below face at many clubs. Know your club's rate before you accept it, price cards higher, take tips in cash.
Close objections are a short list with short answers: hold the price, give the staller a clock, walk from the man who calls the room a scam. One reply each.
No dance and no room starts until the money is in your hand, room fee and your fee both, no tabs, no IOUs, no exceptions for regulars. Warm, and never bent.
Get the house minimum from the house mom, set your own rate at or above it, say it once and flat, cover card fees in the price, and never discount for anyone.
Stacking is asking for the next thing while he is still enjoying this one: the next song mid-dance, the room during the third song, the next hour at the clock.
The money climbs from stage tips to table dances to lap dances to the room. The dancer who earns most knows which rung each customer is on and when to skip one.
The thirty-minute pitch to a man who would have bought the hour is the costliest mistake on the floor, because he rarely buys the second half later.
