Why don't dead clubs hire ringers?

There are a few clubs in the Phoenix valley that are floundering. Walk in and there are just a few drunken PL's usually at the bar. Just two or three past their prime dancers looking bored as shit. Low vibe. Endless break songs. Most PL's walk in and just walk out immediately or after a quick drink.
Now, these are good clubs as far as lay out. Long bars, decent stages and VIP areas. Problem is they can't get customers in. No customers no dancers. No dancers, customers don't stay. A vicious cycle. I'm amazed some of the clubs stay open.
If I owned a club like this, I would bring in a couple of ringers. A ringer being one these fine in-demand honeys from another club. I would not charge these ladies house fees and would guarantee a daily quota of cash. Of course it would all be on the down-low because it is probably illegal in some regard.
There are probably several other perks a club could offer some in-demand dancers enticing them to work at a floundering club.
The ringers would bring in PL's. More PL's would bring in more quality dancers. Cha-ching.
Why don't club owners do this?

One flaw I see in your plan is that your "ringers" would be loathed to the point of lynching by the other dancers. Both for being hotter, getting all the attention, and for getting better pay. The drama would be at nuclear levels. Also, I have no idea how your payment scheme would float with the local Department of Labor, but there could be snags there as well if someone complained (have I mentioned the ripshit not-hot dancers...). I'm thinking unfair/discriminatory wages, etc., etc.
An odd, ironic reality is that often the best clubs are the ones that aren't the tightest ships, business-wise. The tightest-run clubs do the best at steering clear of law enforcement complications while hoovering the most money out of customer pockets.
Does that sound like a fun club to you?
No

Great mind think alike. Or, horny PLs think alike.
Whatever ... that was weird.
I've also wondered why some of these clubs seem to make no effort to improve business. Perhaps it is a tax write off or a front for something. Makes no sense.
A few weeks ago at one of these clubs a car window was busted out leaving shards of glass in piles in the parking lot. Would have taken an employee five minutes to sweep up. Instead, the glass stayed on the ground until enough cars drove over it to spread it away. wtf?
The problem is that it’s costly and the surge in customers ends as soon as the ringers leave.Customers may be pathetic losers, but they aren’t dumb.
The key to a successful club is to treat dancers well. Word will quickly go out on the dancer grapevine. Better looking dancers will come to the club and the customers will follow.
I know some clubs offer incentives to bring new talent. Such as the first month house fees are waived. Another had a grand opening offering one of it's dancers a new Camaro. And of course the concept of Feature dancer is somewhat like a Ringer, at least in concept.
AT the end of the day, certain clubs establish certain reputations.
I figured your "ringers" were look alike ringers. That would really be good execute, but it would be difficult, if not impossible, to have some stripper that looked like Emily Ratajkowski!
Owner says “I don’t have to do shit and my business makes X dollars.” Advice says “if you did this this and this you could be making X plus 50% more.” Owner says “yeah but I don’t want to do this this and this I’m happy with the way things are.”
Not any different than a factory worker who chooses not work the overtime weekends to be with his family even though he he worked those weekends he could increase his salary by 20%.
Yes, back when Deja Vu was still opening new clubs in this area, this is exactly what they did, too. But aside from doing this for new club openings in the big corporate chains, I've never seen this happen to revive a small dead club
