The Body Count Ratio
Let P be the total of number of extras a given PL has done in his career. Any PL should either know or be able to approximate their own body count.
Let S be the total number of extras a given stripper has provided in her career. You can get a rough order-of-magnitude idea of this number by asking her questions like: How long have you worked here? Have you worked at other clubs before coming here?
Then, the Body Count Ratio (BCR), a measurement of the relative negotiation experience in a given strip club interaction, is such that:
BCR = P / (P + S)
Implications
As a PL, you should have an approximate idea of the BCR between you and any dancer with whom you're about to negotiate an extra.
- BCR < 0.05 Indicates that as a PL you are severely outmatched in the negotiation, like it's your first time getting an extra and she's done this hundreds of times. Defend the dollars in your wallet like they were your last or be prepared to part with them quickly. You may need to resort to sharper negotiation tactics like refusing, leaving or deceiving.
- BCR ~ 0.5 Indicates you're on even footing with the dancer. Be confident and straightforward.
- BCR > 0.9 Indicates you're much more experienced than her. You should be confident and even a little empathetic and patient when negotiating. She, feeling outmatched, may make mistakes like overreaching or framing the negotiation around her needs instead of yours, and it's on you as the more experienced party to handle such mistakes delicately and calmly.
Hypothesis
Across all strip clubs the mean average for S is significantly higher than P, and the average BCR of all strip club interactions is low. The PL, even an experienced one, is usually outmatched.
I'd guess the average BCR -- across all strip club negotiations -- to be somewhere around 0.05.
