HELP!
Bb97
Florida
I am a dancer who is 100% natural. I am ambiguous and often mistaken for several different races. I have a body that most dancers pay for yet customers go for the "rachet , fake " girls. I often get told I'm to "beautiful " to be dancing. I am educated with no tattoos ? Kids or addictions. I just enjoy the atmosphere and money.
However I don't make that much? Can y'all please give me some advice? It hurts to have what women pay for yet men in the club don't even look my way. I thought men liked beautiful women? Why in the club it's the opposite. I often hear in the club "your wify" material or to intelligent to be here? Most customers want to date me not get dances? I's that a compliment or copout? If so how can I profit off of this.
I tried working regular jobs but have to deal with so much jealousy I thought dNcing would be easier but I still get the same shit. I also get fired from clubs for no reason? I have never fought or done extras? However I get told not to come back yet girls who I know turn tricks and look like shit get to stay? Why is this?
I'm at my whits end and am wondering should I just let dancing go? Y'all please give me some advice. I've spent so much money smh! Please be honest! I feel that no one wants to tell me the truth?

Also, you might want to check your attitude. Most customers don't want to spend time with a stripper who is either completely enamored with themself or absorbed in self-pity no matter how pretty they are. It's a buzz kill.
You might want to work at a more upscale club. Being around girls within your range will actually work in your favor. I read somewhere to Never be smarter (or prettier) or dumber (uglier) than the heard.
...this has to be a bullshit post. No fckn way in hell you are not getting money thrown at that body.
So Fuck You Jakie...show us your...uh well I guess you already did :)
Juice are you even trying to trick people anymore?
That was profound @GACA
@Bb97 There is some good advice for you maybe you need a better club.
Some thoughts (not to be taken as absolutes):
+ you may not have game - i.e. there are good-looking guys that can't get chicks and avg if not ugly guys that can b/c they have game/confidence w/e - as has been mentioned it's not all about looks and if you are just relying on your looks for custies to throw $$$ at you then you will probably not be as successful
+ per your posts you come across as a bit too-high on yourself (thus the previous comment about being more humble) - this may work at a regular bar or nightclub but the strip-club is a different animal - in the SC the dancer has to "pick up" the custy rather than the other way around as in the "real world" - you gotta be flirty and friendly and you don't come across this way on this thread - this is not meant to take a shot at you, just the way you come across at least to me
+ many strippers say they have a "persona" - i.e. if you carry yourself in the club the same way you do outside the club then you are doing it wrong - you gotta be sexy if not slutty or at least look very interesting - experienced strippers know how to act in a strip-club and that is often different than how they act outside the strip club
+ AFAIK TN clubs are low-mileage (no-touching) - so IDK if it's a mileage issue (perhaps Memphis has turned the corner?) - at the very least you need to dress slutty vs "cute" or "sexy" - i.e. if you got great tits (which seems to be the case IMO) then show them of as much as possible and show as much cleavage as possible; look slutty and irresistible
+ smile and be friendly - if you look serious and approach w/ a serious face then that turns guys off - you are not a stripper, YOU ARE IN SALES - you need to learn to be a better sales-person b/c you are in sales (selling dances and VIPs)
These are just opinions based on the little we know about you so don't take anything personally.
Thanks for the advice I appreciate your insightful response!
In essence, IMO SCs are about sex or at least being sexy (although some custies do like having nice convos w/ dancers) - as far as I'm concerned a simple rule of thumb is to try to turn-on a custy the same way you would turn-on your BF (or previous BFs) - e.g.. was talking about the weather make your BF wanna fuck you or you being slutty made him wanna fuck you - apply the same principles, IMO.
Patrons Ike you are the ones who would call me stuck up in order to lower my self esteem so you can get favors for the low! I think I'm just going to only go to upscale clubs from now on! Wealthy men want the most beautiful ! Average men want the cheap slut!
Since you clearly aren't going to be competing against the extras girls in VIP, what you need to do is find the poshest, most high-end club in your area, and get hired there. If you need to, move out of your area. That way you'll be meeting guys who will be more open to what you're offering, looks, intelligence, and hopefully personality. Basically you would want to push the GFE experience in the club, and if guys want to "date" you then if they seem safe and have the money you can or should offer things like dinner dates or other companionship type activities. You will find guys who will take you up on that in the more high end clubs. That is the way you can work the "you're too beautiful, too smart, wife-material" perception to your advantage.
Bj99 is a dancer; not a custy/PL
That and a blow job.
I've got a nice, pretty, well behaved wife at home, so that's sure as hell not what I'm looking for at a club.
Being confident bothers a lot of patrons, especially the ones who know/assume they couldn't afford "extras" with me at the same price they do the mileage girls!
Are you delivering the same mileage (even if at a premium cost) as is 'normal' for your club?
Do you lead with more than 'wanna dance?" If you truly are exceptionally beautiful, a lot of PLs may just be intimidated. Maybe you need to up your 'bubbly' / 'friendly' act.
Are you in a small or big market club? Maybe you need to try a higher population area where there's more acclimation to a multi-cutural look.
"but the main thing was i made everyone fall in love with me.... not just regulars but the guys that only came once or a few times. it was my personality and me being super sensuous. i also was a GREAT conversationalist"
You come across as very confrontational which is def your right but that type of personality does not bode well for dancers or anyone else dealing directly w/ the public especially someone in sales which heavily relies on being liked to make the sale - as a dancer, or anyone dealing directly w/ customers, one often has to swallow their pride (a salesperson cannot afford to bite the hand that feed it) - similarly applies to corporate America where one has to learn to be diplomatic and get along else you are labeled a non team-player and thus a negative instead of a positive assset.
You should be able to recognize a parallel b/w your poor interaction on here and your seemingly poor interaction w/ customers - and having an attitude that the problem is everyone else IMO means you have not yet matured enough and have yet not learned some tough life lessons we all must learn.
Again, this is not to knock on you, just my sincere observations, in the end it's your life and we here don't really have anything to gain by knocking on you.
Based on the description that you have given of yourself, you remind me of a lot dancers, usually new, that I see occasionally and I want to spend money on them but they are too unreliable. They come to the club sporadically and late.
I suggested focusing on building your clientele. A lot of the dancers that you see making money could have been dealing with their customers for years. Make sure that your customers can find you. Stick to a schedule. Come early. Do stage work if not required. Communicate with your customers via social media (e.g. twitter).
Lol!
And if you ARE a troll - juice...get a hobby.
And can some one please tell me who Juice is? I'm hella confused on what he or she did but they fucking up the vibe on my post! I am not them! But poor me the tea some body? If they crazy let me know so I can advoid them on here!
I spent my money on a sensuous Latina who was bubbly and made great eye contact with me. I'd rate her a 6 due to chubbiness and small tits. Her attractive qualities were a stunning face, continuous smile, ass-length hair, and wide-baby makin' hips.
Funny thing, the Latina wasn't all touchy-feely, which I normally like. After I tipped her on stage, she stopped by my table. She was very lady-like and just interesting to talk to. The club doesn't allow lap dances, so the dancers make money on stage tips and interacting with patrons. There also seem to be rules about too much touching at the bar and tables. I enjoyed her company, and she made over $120 in stage and convo tips from me in about 90 mins.
BTW, we had a fun convo about Seeking Arrangements. Like a lot of young women nowadays, she tried it but didn't land a steady hookup. We planned a dinner to discuss the possibility of a SD/SB relationship. With your stunning beauty BB99, sugaring might be a path for you.
juicebox69 is a prolific poster that some people believe to be responsible for most if not all trolling activities on the board. Personally I'm skeptical of that, but I think I'm in the minority!
The fact that despite having no physical altercations or breaking any rules yet still randomly getting fired from clubs (plural) means there is something you are not doing right.
I am beautiful, also educated, also racially ambiguous looking, petite body type that is popular among customers and I've always been among the highest earners. That is because of not only my looks and attitude, but my work ethic.
It is simple: ABC. Always. Be. Closing. You are a saleswoman, and with the assets you say you have, there isn't a reason you should be making no money. It would honestly be better for you to describe to us what your hustle is like because something is off. Back when I worked at extras clubs, I was one of the few non-extras girls and was still usually able to out-earn them simply because my hustle never stopped. I talked to more customers they did. I had a better sales mentality.
You clearly need to reassess your entire dance hustle, from your approach right on down to your hair, makeup, and overall wardrobe.
If I had to guess from your post, it's that latter part that is causing your problems. Don't tell me how smart and beautiful you are, tell me how smart and handsome I am. You are being paid to boost my ego, not yours. If you can't fake that, you have chosen the wrong career.
If you tell us where you are, we have people in most US metros who might know that area and its clubs.
As far as what goes, its high heels and makeup. Thigh high stockings and a garter belt are good. Girl needs to looks slutty and ready for instant sex.
As far as what actually happens, that is a different matter, but she has to look the part.
As far as how to approach guys, that depends on what you are expecting to happen. But the more forward the better.
Please do stay and post on more of our threads.

Having to face this is one of ways they try to justify the high costs of their attention.

In my opinion, stripper are above average in intelligence and conversational ability, and smarter than most custies. Being smart does help them. Often girls want the guy to select them, or at least to think that he is doing that. So they give hints, but the let the guy make the moves.
Anyway, it depends on how forward and how far the other girls in the club are going.
SJG
of for why a physically attractive stripper would make very little money at a club where less attractive girls make much more are (1) too shy, (2) bad attitude, (3) smelling bad or (4) refusing to do high mileage dances and/or extras despite the fact that many girls in the club offer those services.
I have definitely met beautiful dancers who were very shy. I wrote about one of them who after a while stopped dancing for anyone except for me. As for bad attitude, when you have to deal with assholes all day that's not that surprising. Dancers really need to develop thick skins. They also need to make sure they brush their teeth after eating in the club. I have been turned off by bad breath way too many times. Considering how often dancers complain about guys smelling bad, it just blows my mind to run across dancers with bad mouth or body odor.
#4 is also one I'm going to agree with. You have to understand the club you're working at and the customers. I don't care how good looking you are, there's probably going to be one or two lookers in the club who are going to be offering extras, so if you're telling me that you don't and make more money than them, I'm gonna have to roll my eyes, because first of all, how would you even know what those other dancers are making? Seriously. How the fuck would one dancer know what another dancer is making unless they are best friends?
Anonperson, You are wrong and/or lying. Plenty of what I've said was insightful, unless you cannot read English or are on crack or something...
Do you really want me to post, in length and detail, what MY particular hustle is? (that is weird)...I'm not going to give you that luxury. Are you in sales? If you were you would know that someone who clearly sucks at sales (no offense OP) giving her a basic sales tactic that will make her make money is helpful. What I will tell you is that a poster who made a review about me said the thing he was most impressed about was my WORK ETHIC and that he has not met many strippers with one as strong as mine. I think that speaks for my hustle skills (as do my earnings).
Also, again speaking about your lack of correct use of language, IN WHAT UNIVERSE was I "blowing smoke up her ass"? Seriously? Do you even know what that idiom means? I assume not, or you wouldn't have said it.
Fucking get lost, dude.
Why am I saying this? You mention getting unwanted attention at a non-strip club job... and not getting enough attention at a strip club. With your natural beauty, you expected things to be the same at both places? Since they are not, it's obvious that natural beauty has very little to do with what attracts men at strip clubs!
