BELOW ARE SOME COMMON QUESTIONS OR THOUGHTS ABOUT USING OUR AGENCY:

1) WHO PAYS THE AGENCY? Club owners pay The Best Dancers agency.

2) WHY DO SOME CLUBS CHARGE A HOUSE FEE OR TIP-OUT? If you own your own business you must pay rent or a lease. If you do a deal with someone to sell your product they will take a percentage. If you own a franchise in a mall you would not only pay rent, you must pay the mall a percentage of your earnings as well as the rent. All retail & online shops will take a percentage from you to operate. Travel agencies take a percentage, real estate companies take a percentage etc etc. When you are a self-employed dancer using a strip club's facilities to earn money, in many cases, a club will charge you fees. Some don't. Consider yourself lucky if you find a club that won't charge you house fees.

3) IF I PAY THE CLUB A HOUSE FEE DOES SOME OF THE MONEY GET USED TO PAY THE AGENCY? If you buy a burger at MacDonalds and they pay their employees with some of the money then are you paying MacDonald's employees? Indirectly YES. It's the same with strip clubs, some pay us out of the house fee and some dont charge a house fee at all. It's up to the club if they charge house fees and what they do or who they pay with their money.

4) WHAT CAN I EXPECT WHEN I GET TO MY BOOKING? High expectations are often a recipe for disappointment. Don't build up or create (in your mind) illusions about what a job or city will be like- because everywhere is different (and you're probably not psychic.) Research info on the net, ask questions and remember that other people's opinions vary. Keep your expectations to a minimum, be realistic, then you will be much happier with the results.

5) WHY BOOK THROUGH AN AGENCY? CAN'T I FIND MY OWN JOB ON THE NET? Yes, you can - many dancers book themselves through jobs found on the net, however, The Best Dancers Agency is continually contacted by strip clubs & people around the world looking for dancers, but through experience we find that some of these offers are not good or dangerous. After we do some research and find this out we will not allow these people or clubs to be posted on our site or work with us.

6) WHAT KINDS OF PLACES & PEOPLE AREN'T SAFE or ARE BAD PLACES TO WORK? Eastern European or Middle Eastern agencies; be wary of people and offers in places like Eastern Europe, especially Bucharest, Ukraine & Russia; the Middle East, Greece, Turkey, Malta, Spain, Italy, Thailand, United Emirates, India, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, South America - Venezuela, Chile & Guyana. Florida has a lot of bad clubs & shady owners; Eastern Canada produces a lot of bad strip clubs. The Caribbean offers a lot of bad strip clubs (especially Costa Rica, Antigua & Dominican Republic -most clubs in the Canary Islands near Spain are just brothels.) Strip clubs in the Bahamas are NOT legal and they may ask for your plane ticket and passport. Dont book jobs that take your passport or plane ticket. Don't book jobs where they tell you the agent will come with you.... and don't book jobs through agents that ask you to pay them a fee. (This is just a sample of what kind of research we are always working on.)

7) WHAT ARE OTHER REASONS TO BOOK THROUGH THE BEST DANCERS AGENCY? Our strip club agency is like a personnel agency, where you can find several jobs all in one shot. The clubs we have listed have already been researched - dancers report back to us on on a regular basis to tell us if they are making money & are happy at these clubs- they can also report to us if it's slow or busy. We try to keep info current & accurate. Dancers also inform us if something goes seriously wrong, if this happens, then we drop the booking and inform dancers when a club is no longer a good place to work.

8) I SEE A LOT OF STRIP CLUB LISTS ON THE NET- ARE THESE SAFE FOR WORK? Strip club list websites offered on the net can't control who signs up. Anyone can post themselves as a strip club. Many postings are decieving & some of the places I've seen listed even come complete with beds right in the club. I have travelled around the world and seen some of these so-called strip clubs in person, which are listed on the net, many should not be classified as strip clubs.

9) IF A DANCER OFFERS SEX IN A CLUB THEN ISN'T THIS A BROTHEL? No DANCER should be offering sex in the club, but we all know some do it anyway. It does not mean the club is a brothel, it means exaclty what it appears to mean, the dancer is not a dancer, she is a prostitute. If you have a problem with this then confront the dancer, the manager, the owner or whoever you want. You can even call the police if want. The police usually find out and deal with it if it's a serious problem. If it's rampant and we hear about it, we will confront the club owner. But believe it or not, most dancers aren't bothered by what other dancers do. In some places prostitution is actually legal, even so, sex still shouldn't be acceptable in the club itself.

10) I SEE REVIEWS ON MESSAGE BOARDS, SOME SAY A CLUB IS GOOD, OTHERS WILL SAY THE SAME CLUB IS BAD. WHY? Message boards are like the bathroom wall; a lot of people posting on message boards have some sort of grievances. Everyone has different opinions. The only way to truly know if a club is worthy or not is to ask yourself, why is this club still in business if it's so bad? Has it been raided before? Do the police show up there a lot? Does the bad info you hear or read out-weigh the good? If someone is saying something good then it can't be all bad; remember the old saying, if one customer is unhappy they'll tell ten people. One happy customer will usually tell a lot less people.

11) IF A CLUB IS SO GOOD THEN WHY DO THEY NEED AN AGENCY?The Best Dancers has been contacted by almost every popular strip club in the world, maybe you think they don't need or use agencies, but a lot of them do. They just want a variety of new faces, thats all.

12) THE BENEFIT OF WORKING AT CLUBS BOOKED THROUGH OUR AGENCY - Get a calculator and work it out. Making more money = working harder to pay to be there. Some larger clubs charge dancers $150 night - multiply that by 26 nights = $3900 in house fees. Deduct another $1000 month in rent (at least) and deduct approx $500usd for travel - TOTAL = $5400usd. Lets say you average $500usd per night x 26 nights = $13,000usd, now deduct $5400usd for travel + accommodations + tip-out, this leaves you with $7600usd - (minus agent fees if applicable.) Don't forget you had to dance to make that $5400 that you paid out, so take that into consideration. Now compare to some of the clubs we book, where you are going home with about $7000usd - $10,000usd per month You won't have to work to earn that extra $5400 to pay out in fees, you don't have to worry about a place to stay and at some places we book they will offer travel incentives if you stay longer than 4 weeks. You tell me which is better.

13) DO THE CLUBS YOU BOOK PROVIDE ACCOMMODATIONS? Yes. Mostly for free, but some do charge for this, however the clubs that charge rent are usually located where the girls don't have a hard time finding a place to stay or where there are enough dancers already living in the city near the club. The accommodations provided by our clubs are always cheaper than what you will find yourself, because clubs mass book the rooms & get deals that a hotel or apartment can't afford to offer you on your own.

14) WHY IN SOME OF THE PHOTOS OF THE CLUBS YOU HAVE LISTED- DOES IT LOOK LIKE THERE ARE NO CUSTOMERS? Because when photographers come to the club to shoot the photos it's usually early in the night or day when no one is there. Also because many customers (and sometimes dancers) dont want to be in the photos.

15) CAN I BRING MY BOYFRIEND OR HUSBAND? If you get your own accommodation then sure. But if your boyfriend or hubby doesn't work while you are working, then you'll most likely end up fighting & arguing. Why not pass on this and just have him come visit on your time off instead.

16) HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO WORK TO RECIEVE ANY BENEFITS? All the places listed on this site require you stay & work between 14 -90 days. If you only want work for a few days, then maybe traveling isn't for you.

17) WHICH COUNTRIES DOES YOUR COMPANY BOOK? Countries where we know other dancers had or are having a good time. See our bookings listed in our STRIP CLUB GUIDE

18) DO I NEED ANY VACCINATIONS BEFORE I GO? You might need a TB vaccination or Hepatitis shot, but it really depends on where you are going. Usually hot climates require these types of vaccinations. See the NET DOCTOR for more info.

19) HOW MUCH MONEY WILL I MAKE? I don't know how much money you will make. I can only tell you what others are making or averaging. Not everyone makes the same, but I don't hear of too many girls earning less than $6000usd per month. Average is $7000usd- $8000usd per month and some dancers are goood at their craft, work their magic, and earn over $10,000usd per month -- these earnings are take home - after deductions.

20) WHY WAS I REFUSED WORK? You could be refused work for being over-weight, too many or large tatoos, facial peircings or maybe the club wanted someone more mature or younger. Maybe the photos were not very good ....or you looked drunk or stoned in the photos.

21) I FEEL I GET TURNED DOWN FOR WORK BECAUSE I AM BLACK? I can't speak on behalf of everyone, all I know is that some clubs want a variety; some are located where there are a lot of black girls already and they want more caucasian girls as a novelty. In Hawaii where the customers are mostly Asian, the customers want to meet blondes & other Asians. But mostly what one must realize is that it's not only black dancers who are refused work, caucasian dancers are often refused, probably more than blacks, for the same reasons mentioned above.

22) LET'S SAY I GET TO THE CLUB -WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T LIKE IT & WANT TO LEAVE? Let a manager or agent know that you are leaving, return the accommodation keys and make sure any pre-paid airfare or visa costs are refunded to the club owner. NOTE: We will contact the police or Embassy to look for dancers that don't give notice when they leave. The authorities will be contacted within 48 hours if we have not heard from you. This is for your own safety, so MAKE SURE YOU CALL US or SOMEONE to let us know that you are OK!
