BLOG TIP #1 - When Booking Your Event Entertainment

TIP  #1

• RECOGNIZE YOUR AUDIENCE    

Whatever your program you need to match your speaker/entertainer to your specific group or audience. Obviously you’d not want to hire someone to give gardening tips to a room of statisticians… that’s a no-brainer.

It’s time to brainstorm to discover your groups E.Q. or Entertainment Quotient.

As you dissect and define your event attendees, your own questions and answers will vary depending upon your group, but start with a few like these:

• What are your guests areas of interest?
• What is the age range of your guests?
• What do your guests all have in common?
• What entertainment will compliment your event theme?
• What did you book last time, do you need something different?
• What are the educational, economic or geographic demographics of your guests?
• What results do you want? Excitement, motivation, introspection, or just fun?
• What was the feedback from past event attendees, was it a positive experience?

These, and your own, questions will help you to explore entertainment or keynote speaker possibilities. Whether you’re going for simple entertainment or perhaps a meaningful change and shift, or direction and motivation, look at your ROI, your particular Return On Investment.

Good professional entertainers are not inexpensive, and before you book someone be sure they can deliver what your guests need and want, and you feel you’ve received your money’s worth.

Stay tuned for another event booking idea within the next few days!

Worldwide Magic Coaching!

Worldwide Magic Coaching - by the “***Most Hated Magician in San Francisco.”

Okay! Entering the 21st Century here. At last I have a Webcam and Skype.  This allows me to offer coaching, directing, and mentoring -  anywhere and everywhere.

Wow, I’m now equipped to help performance artists worldwide. I can -and plan to- offer personal coaching to magicians and actors on topics including: creating/polishing their acts, originality, presentation, stagecraft skills, scripting -and- offering performance feedback!

If you found value using the topics in my book, this is an opportunity to work one on one to bring your magic (and income) to the next level. Via Skype I can offer an attractive rate.

(***I really hope I’m not the MOST hated magician in San Francisco, or anywhere, but the reputation began because I’m frank, forthright, and honest. I’m always there to lend a hand or give advice-- but I don’t have much patience for bull-c**p.)

Magically,
Walt
