Can Strippers Make Money Online?

Can strippers make money online? yes and so can everyone else.  But this post may surprise you.

For many months now, I'm part of a closed group of Internet marketers. What is interesting about the group is we have people from all over the world, we have men and women, young and old, expert and new comers, technically savvy and new to the Internet/computers.

Note: If you are offended because I used the stripper world, I really don't care.  You should still read this post since, again, you will be surprise.

What about Strippers?

I don't think we have some but if we do, it's their life/choice.

Anyway, because of their line of work, a stripper have more opportunities to make money online than most of us. She could remain in the adult entertainment industry by selling web cam memberships or sell nude pictures/videos of her on her site or third party sites.

The downside is that it will limit her options like not using PayPal, finding an hosting or ISP that allow adult content ... Yes, it's possible since the industry as many companies that cater to that need.

This post is not about that.

Stripper and SEO

You can make a comparison between a stripper and SEO(search engine optimization).

In Quebec, a stripper is not paid when she dance on the stage in some adult strip clubs. The stage is a way for her to attract potential customers. She will have to do a lap dances for her to get paid.

In Internet Marketing, if I don't get links to my site, I can't attract targeted buying visitors to buy my offers.

You could say that linking is the equivalent of dancing on the stage and buying the offer is my lap dance.

Stripper and Internet Marketer

She and I have somethings in common: we are independent businesses, we have to manage our time/schedule and if we don't do the work, we don't get paid.

However, I have on advantage over a lap dances. My sites will continue to give me some pleasure long after it's finished in the form of passive income.

Increasing revenues by upselling

A stripper have to wait for a customer to get a lap dance. Let's say that a lap dance is $20. When the lap dance is over, she could offer the customer 2 more dances for $30. If the customer declines, she could offer one dance for $15. Yes, it's less money but she will be optimizing her time by having the client ready instead of waiting for the next one.

In Internet marketing, you would sell a product and you can also offer the client related products. Most of the time, the upsell is discounted more than usual.

In both cases, you already have the attention of a paying customer.

What about the needed skills?

A stripper must be able to read the types of clients, work the room, be approachable, dance in a erotic way, get regular customers ...

In Internet marketing,  you must know basic HTML/CSS, able to FTP file to the host, manage a host/domain name, use software ... You don't have to be an expert but at least be able to search online when you get stuck. Fortunately for us,  a lot of information is there to help us.

Because of their work, strippers are able to learn those skills when they don't have customers or when it's slow.

What about the social issues?

A stripper must deal with negative social stereotypes and that stress, must be able to deal with  not making enough money, deal with stupid/drunk clients or owners ...

In Internet marketing,  you will work mostly alone, work long hours and most days of the week, people will not understand the business ...

In both cases, you must find others that can support/understand your business. In my case, having my family and the group of fellow Internet marketers is helping me. I'm sure strippers have a forum or local group.

When are you getting paid?

A stripper will be paid before the lap dance start.

In Internet marketing,  if I create a site today, it may take 6-7 months or be tomorrow to get paid. Patience is needed.

What business model to follow?

I'm a big fan of diversification. In my case, I made up a model for me. I use the $1/day, sell AuctionSiteWriter and MyStarterBlog and do a little offline consultation for clients.

In the $1/day model, I expect that each site will produce an average of $30 for the month. I could make $0 a month but $60 the next month.  If your goal is to make $100/day, then you will need 100 sites minimum. Those sites are set and forget thus requiring little management.

Some will create 1 site and try to make it a big success.

If you have a spouse or teenagers, you could teach them your model since the money will be used by all thus in their best interest.

A stripper could decide to invest one lap dance per night to get a new domain name if she follow the $1/model.

Once you start making money, you should reinvest that money in the business. Eventually, you might have more than 100 sites. If a site is not performing well, the new ones can compensate instead.

Conclusion

I decided to use the stripping world to show similarities with Internet marketing and make my point . I could had used any jobs that require selling but it was more fun that way. lol

If you currently have a job(stripping or not), you can and should start now. But because strippers have a shorter work life, it's even more true for them to start early to plan their "retirement" of that business.

Many people in my group have jobs and are doing that. Eventually, most will be able to quit their day job.
