The first thing you want to do is go to a club that you are thinking of working at as a customer during the desired shift that you wish to work.
You want to see what the club looks like, who the customers are, what the other dancers are like and if it is a place you can see yourself spending a decent amount of time at.
There are three different types of Gentleman's clubs the first is the upscale types.
These types of clubs have dress codes and you are often expected to wear a long gown similar to an evening gown only a little more likes lingerie.
They often have high house fees and support staff that you are expected to tips out an average of 10-20% of your total nightly income.
These clubs are often filled with business men and city dwellers who prefer more upscale establishments so expect to spend a lot of money on gowns and rhinestone jewelry to match your clientele.
Also these clubs tend to be large in size and have a lot of entertainers working nightly.
The second types of clubs are your Neighborhood Clubs.
These types of clubs are a little more laid back and often attract locals or tourists depending on the location.
You can be a little more flexible with your costumes and themes.
This is usually a good place to start if you are new to dancing as well.
Some of the clubs are located in industrial areas and others are like neighborhood bars with topless or nude entertainment.
The third type of club is your third tier or dive bars.
These are usually located in very rural areas of town and often have less than average clientele.
They are usually very lenient with the hiring process and attract a rougher crowd.
Don't think that you will necessarily make more money at a first tier club, especially if you are not familiar with sales strategies.
Likewise, an exotic dancer can make a lot of money at a second tier club because they tend to have lower house fees and less tip outs.
Small towns can also be very profitable...
especially when there is only one or two clubs in town!
