My own strip club
Clackport
Washington
My club would only consist of 8 to 10's, nothing below an 8. This club would specialize in girls with ass, but there will be definitely enough tits for the tit lovers. The club would also specialize in exotic looking women. It will be a full nude club with alcohol served. The regular lap dances will be $20. The VIP rates will be $150 for 30 minutes, and $300 for an hour. With all the hot girls there will be constantly guys in the VIP. Something to note though: THERE WILL BE NO EXTRAS ITC. If you want to do that shir, take that OTC, I can't have my club being shut down. There will be no cover in the day and a 5 buck cover in the night. The drink prices will be reasonable. 4 or 5 bucks for a beer etc. The waitresses will be hot.
To continue to get the hot girls coming in I will scout the Portland clubs and take the hottest girls out of those clubs and bring them to my club. If you're a rich investor, this would be a great investment. My goal is to have the number one club in Portland and to be ranked number one for dancer quality on TUSCL, look out Mons Venus, here I come!!!
BTW I'm half joking, but this is definitely something I want to be a part of.
Got something to say?

Lots of girls from Seattle are willing to make the short trip down to Seattle to work in Portland. (I remember one of them even offering me "interesting" services if I would drive her down and back for the weekend. :-) )
So if you do get this going I would say consider doing some scouting up here in Seattle as well.
A few more details that I forgot to say. There will be 3 or 4 stages with 2 song sets for the stageshows. There will be 5 to 10 dancers on the dayshift and around 20 dancers on the night shift. Most of the hot strippers that I know and the ones will I be scouting love hip hop music, so you have to be able to put with hip hop for most of the girls stageshow songs. There won't be any cameras in the lapdance area, but there will be a bouncer peeking in sometimes making sure nothing illegal is going on. Two way contact is fine. The bouncer won't stop from touching all over all the girl, but BJ, HJ, FS, DATY, tittie fuck and fingering is not allowed. That shit will get you kicked out of the club.
But hey, offering nothing up to part of the market is something of a plan I guess.
@Juice- Pomp? Do you mean pimp? Lol
If you are willing to make the investment of money and time into this, you could very well succeed. It is like any small business.
Someone who has thought about it a great deal is inno123. He authored a six-part series of articles, "Building the Perfect Strip Club." See part 1 at: https://www.tuscl.net/postread.php?PID=1…
Also, "The Strip Club Hound" blog is very insightful on this subject.

I would love to be in a club such as you have described.
However the combination of all the parameters you describe in this "perfect" club only exist in fantasy land.
But hey we can dream can't we?
One thing I see right away wrong with his plan is the idea of stealing the best dancers from other clubs. I guess he is thinking of just visiting a club, picking out the hottest dancers, and say "hey, wanna work in my new club". First of all he had better be making a much better financial offer because otherwise dancers are going to weigh the risk of losing many of their current list of regulars. But beyond that he might get away with this once before being forcibly removed from the club and blacklisted from not only that club but every other club in the city. Club owners might not be pimps, but they are just as protective of their stable of girls.
The second potential risk is not offering ITC if other local clubs are. You do not want to be the low mileage club. In addition it is highly doubtfull that an ITC dancer will switch to appear at a non-ITC club. So for example you want to charge $150 for a half hour VIP. Let's say the dancer gets 80 of it. But the tip for extras might easily be an additional $80 meaning the dancer is giving up half of her hourly cash flow, particularly the part that is NOT going to appear on her 1099.
As for just letting them do OTC instead: OTC girls are often finding all sorts of lame excuses to come in late or leave early. They make staffing your club a headache.
So the best thing is to work on your plausible deniability "I had no idea she was doing THAT in the VIP! We tell them very specifically about that!" while at the same time making the external security around the club so tidy that the local Law Enforcement has little reason to want to target you.
The quality of the girls changes month to month. This is a business the average girl doesn't last very long. Plus there are always little beefs that come up and girls fight then go work at another club or get out of the business altogether.
If you don’t have the girls you won’t have the business. So you are constantly trying to hire dancers to keep up with turnover.
Vice is down your throat all the time. It's not like these girls are angels, they get busted for solicitation, possession, and DUIs abound. Right now my friend's club has some pretty good girls and not one of them has a current driver’s license.
There is money to be made in a club, but expect spending every minute it is open there to make sure the place doesn’t fall apart. The owners I know all run other businesses as well and say the club might turn a profit a couple months a year.
The best way to make a small fortune owning a strip club is starting with a large fortune.
Also good luck trying to get 8-10's coming in at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. Unless your only planning at opening say 7pm on.
Second problem to me is a HUGE one. Cost. Your dances are too expensive. If I walked into that club I wouldn't get any VIP when hearing 150-300. I can get FS for less than 150 why would I pay more for maybe an air dance? 100 for 1/2 hour and 180 for an hour would be better (discount given for longer
I also would refrain from having the bouncers check in though. Nothing's more of a turnoff than having them peek in on you. You have to make it clear to the girls that extras aren't tolerated and any violations you hear is immediate termination. I understand why you don't want that though as you want to STAY open and not have any fines.
Next and probably the biggest issue is the licensing...needless to say most neighborhoods won't want a strip club nearby, either because of morals, the possibility of losing customers to you, or the impact or perception it brings to the area. Once you get past that, it seems like its a huge hassle to get a liquor license
I don't think it's gonna be hard to get the top girls. Of course first I'll build a relationship with them, and then I'll convince them they will make the same or even more money at my club. Their regulars from their previous clubs might even follow them to my club.
Thanks for all the great insight.
