The Secret Edge for Children’s Entertainers: A Review

Fourteen-page ebook available at Lybrary.com. Price $4.00

Magicians and mentalists know that Devin Knight is a creative performer and inventor of magic effects. He has also written several ebooks that reveal very important ideas for marketing shows, especially family shows.

Devin Knight's ebook The Secret Edge for Children's Entertainers

In The Secret Edge for Children’s Entertainers, Devin explains just what the edge is, why it is important, and how entertainers can utilize it to book shows, even when they are more expensive than the competition. Any magician, ventriloquist, clown, juggler, balloon artist, or other entertainer who works with kids will find this information useful.

Even though his focus in the ebook is on kid-show performers, this edge will also be valuable in other markets. I can easily imagine a time in the near future when having this edge will be necessary to get booked for any gig.

If you are only interested in learning new tricks, then this ebook is not for you. But if you consider yourself a professional entertainer at any level, I strongly recommend that you read this ebook and then act on the information it contains.

I’m not exaggerating when I say that this could be the most important ebook any kid-show and family entertainer reads. It is about marketing, but it’s also about being a responsible business owner.

The Secret Edge for Children’s Entertainers is only 14 pages long, but it’s priced way too cheap at only $4.00. I guess Devin priced it so reasonably to help get the information out there. You can read the ebook in about half an hour or so, but the information could be vitally important to your business success. This ebook is highly recommended for professional entertainers.

Get More Gigs the Easy Way by Devin Knight: A Review

Sixteen-page ebook available at Lybrary.com. Price $9.95

Many magicians and mentalists know that Devin Knight is a creative performer and inventor of magic effects. He has also revealed in his ebooks some very clever ideas for marketing entertainment services and booking shows.

Devin Knight's ebook Get More Gigs the Easy Way!

His ebook Get More Gigs the Easy Way describes an unusual and fun way of promoting your services by going out in public. While this would be primarily for booking birthday parties and family events, there is also the potential for booking other types of shows with this promotional method.

Get More Gigs the Easy Way is written from the perspective of magicians using this promotion, but just about any family entertainer should be able to put this to work. The good news is there will be little to no resistance for people taking your business card. You’ll create smiles and laughter, and people will want to get your business card.

Devin mentions that he has sometimes been able to book a gig on the spot. That hasn’t happened to me yet, but I can certainly see how that would be possible.

By the time you finish reading this ebook, you’ll wonder why you didn’t think of this idea. (When I read it, I wondered it myself!) Well, that part doesn’t really matter. What matters is that you don’t let the information sit and collect digital dust; get off the couch and start using it!

Give this promotional idea a fair trial. The more you do it, the better you’ll get at it, which will mean more bookings for you.

Get More Gigs the Easy Way is only 16 pages long, but seriously, it’s priced way too cheap at only $9.95. You can read the whole thing in about half an hour or so, but the information is gold! Highly recommended. Grab your copy here at Lybrary.com. By the way, that is an affiliate link. I may make a small commission if you make a purchase through that link. I might even make enough to buy tacos on Taco Tuesday! Ha ha!

Magic 4 Speakers DVD Set

Who Else Is Ready to Make Their Presentations More Fun and Engaging?

If you are a speaker who would like to make your next program exciting and fun . . .

Or if you are a magician who would like to add speaking to your repertoire . . .

You’ve come to the right place. Keep reading.

Magic 4 Speakers is a set of 4 DVDs presented by Steve Hart and Tom Antion. Steve is a longtime professional magician and speaker, while Tom is a very successful public speaker who has used magic frequently to emphasize points during his presentations.

They present a large number of easy-to-do tricks during the DVDs. The tricks they present are entertaining, and the explanations are thorough.

But the most important thing is they give examples how to tie the trick in with the message that you are presenting. In public speaking and motivational speaking, the tricks, for the most part, should reinforce the message but not dominate that message.

A rabbit in a hat

The DVDs are not a slick production with fancy camera effects. What you are paying for here is the knowledge and experience that Tom and Steve provide. 

Full disclosure: I’ve been performing magic for a long time, and there are a couple of tricks on this DVD set that were new to me! So the DVDs have been educational for me in more ways than one!

As I said, if you are a speaker who would like to add something unusual and fun to your presentation, or if you are a magician who would like to learn the correct way to use magic in a speaking presentation, you won’t go wrong with Magic 4 Speakers. I highly recommend this. Visit the website to get all the details on this set.

Wake ‘Em Up: A Great Book for Performers, Speakers, and Emcees

I call Tom Antion "one of the smart guys." He has been very successful as an entrepreneur for over 40 years. He has had great success as a public speaker, as an Internet marketer, as an author, and as a mentor.

He is also one of the good guys. He wants to help people be successful in their endeavors.

One of his most significant publications is Wake 'Em Up! Business Presentations. The book is aimed primarily at public speakers, but it also contains a wealth of information that is suitable for magicians, emcees, ventriloquists, and anyone else who needs to get in front of an audience.

I really can't explain adequately in a blog post how valuable this book is. But visit Tom's website, and you can get all the information there.

Since the book was originally published in the 1990s, a little bit of the information is out of date. But don't let that hold you back. I have this book and have gotten a lot from it. Highly recommended!
