Krab is 100% correct. You tell them that you do not currently have the type of magic they need for a stage show but you would be willing to work 1 hr. of strolling in the lobby area prior to their stage show. If they won't pay you a decent amount then you ask them for 2 free tickets to the show...

Well said Chris. It is a very easy read and guys can start using this information to take their magic / and or business to that next level. I've already started applying two things and can't believe the impact in just the past few days.

For me, and I don't know why but I like to physically hold a book in my hands and turn the page with my hand...not by swiping or pushing a button. I am not against ebooks but just not very fond of them. Also I think I enjoy "seeing" my progress with my eyes by looking at a book mark getting...

Confidence is key to being with girls. Not arrogance...confidence. Using a magic effect to maybe break the ice here or there isn't bad, but it gets old real fast. Girls want to be with someone who is confident, humorous, and who is going to put them up on a pedestal and make them feel special...

Negative. I don't believe so. I know that would make it easier to purchase for people but Jamie has definitely priced this correctly and I wouldn't see him offering it cheaply. If I were in his shoes I wouldn't either.

The Approach by Jamie D. Grant A Complete guide to becoming a Working Magician - Incredible Workbook format! (yes you will actually be writing and taking some notes to better yourself...imagine that. The fact that I am an educator...I love this aspect. Now by all means if you want to keep your...

Awesome post Steer. If I could give you a virtual fist bump I would. Ha ha.

Great topic. I guess I can start and keep in mind fellas this is solely and opinion. I do not claim to be right or wrong. To me revealing means that you blatantly are showing how an effect is done to primarily draw attention to yourself and that you "know" how an effect is accomplished. This is...

Krab and Randy....you guys are both correct and I have been in both situations. Sometimes they truly are trying to get your services for FREE up front and the DJ, Dunk tank, caterer are getting paid their full price. I know it sounds rude, but sometimes you just need to ask if every sponsor is...

Randy is EXACTLY correct on this one Pete. You ALWAYS have more than just the one person who selected the card, get to see the card. You may not have been burnt on it yet but I assure you if you perform long enough....you will. I've been there and if a person totally forgets or isn't as familiar...

Craig I guess maybe I was confused on what he was doing. To me it sounded like he need repeatable strolling effects by the way he mentioned he was told to be able to walk up to couples and perform. But yes, by all means, if it is more of a one and done stage piece he should go more your route. I...

Well said Craig. I've had countless phone calls from agencies who claim that they can book me tons of shows at $100.00 a show but I guarantee they are making at least $100-$150 per show off of me. Ummm...no thanks. The funny part is that they want you to go drive an hour or two to the show...

Thanks Timmy. He was thinking about putting it on the Wire for free, but I am not sure that many people would want this sequence because it is not technically anything like the rest of the flinger flinging cardists.

Making roses appear over and over like that for couples could prove to be a bit tricky...no pun intended. I highly recommend Michael Mode's Napkin Roses. They are very easy to make and you can get the DVD and supplies here. I know Michael personally and have used these before...

Hi Buck, by the way you are describing this place it doesn't sound like the money will be "rolling" in so to speak. I'm guessing you might be able to charge $50.00 per hour, even that would be high by the way you are describing it, but that is just going off of you telling me that it is a pizza...

Josh I certainly am not a doctor by any means, but I don't think I would just do a self diagnosis from symptoms you see on the Internet. A lot of people fall into this pit of trying to self diagnose themselves when it is completely something else. I'm not saying you are wrong, just don't get all...

Here is my mentor Ed Ellis demonstrating his new "Gorgo Cut" It is completely false. https://vimeo.com/84854854 Now before all of you cardistry guys bash him...ha ha...keep in mind he is not a cardistry guy...just a magician trying to do some fancy eye candy. I know it is not completely...

I would be against a book test as well for a large group like that. To me book tests are usually saved for small intimate settings so you can really get that emotional hook with the audience. That is tough to do in a huge gymnasium and nobody in the gym gets to see the book pages except the...

You are asking for my opinion so I am going to give it to you. Fiber Optics all the way man. VERY visual and looks amazing. Go for it!

Rainman....woo hoo I want my gold star.
