Girls with bad business sense

I know this topic has been discussed before (i.e. dancers who are rude, spend all their time on their phones, etc.), but I thought I'd share this recent story.
A few weeks ago, I stopped by a local club after work to relax. After about ~15 minutes, one of the better-looking girls in the club catches my eye, and she gets the message and comes on by. She does the standard intro and then asks me if I want to get a dance. For this club, it's $10 before 7PM, $20 after 7PM, but $40 for 4 before 10PM. Anyway, she says it's $20 a dance, to which I reply “how about the 4 for $40†since it's before 10PM. You would have thought I just spit in her face because she got really pissy and said she only did $20 dances and was I still interested. I said no thanks and she walked off in a huff looking for another mark. I went back to checking out the stage and watched as she couldn't hook another sucker until a half hour later.
I thought this was pretty amusing, but it got me thinking. Why would she be so adamant about only doing $20 dances? She obviously knows that I know the price structure for the club so why try to scam me? No one else is going to know that she gave me the discounted price, and it's not like I'm going to go around the club telling everyone else that she did the $40 special. I could care less if she can get another PL to pay $20 a dance just as long as she doesn't scam me. If she were running guys back non-stop I might understand, but she wasn't. Plus, the fact that I actually wanted to get dances from her and that she didn't sell any other dances during the time it would have taken to give me the 4 dances really made me laugh since she basically passed up a sure thing.
Now compare this to the girl I actually got dances from that night. She gave me the same standard intro but at the end she tried upsell to the VIP. As she finished her pitch, she said “The VIP is normally 5 for $100, but I'll do it for $60†at which point I said “sold!†and off we went. As we were waiting for the set to start, I asked her why she discounted the VIP since most girls normally didn't do that. Her response was that if she thought that a guy was interested but she could sense that he was maybe on the fence she'd rather guarantee a sell by offering a discount rather than miss out on a customer by sticking to the standard price. She gave great dances and was just as hot as the ROB, and she ended up getting more than the $100 anyway since we did the VIP twice. It just goes to show you that when it comes to trying to make a living in this business, some girls know how to work the system and some are just plain dumb.
Got something to say?
