SATISFIED VIEWERS SAY:
"I also recently got your birthday party dvd & it is without a doubt the second greatest magic item I have ever received. The absolute greatest was my first thumb-tip that was given to me some 20 years ago by one of my best friends. The advice in the dvd is priceless!"
"Two ideas about business on the video were worth the entire price to me. By the way, I have been a magician for forty-five years (since age nine). Hope this feedback means something to you, because you have sure changed some of my ideas on the art of performance." |

15 CHAPTERS
take you START TO FINISH!
1 - A BRIEF INTRODUCTION - How to get the most use from the video as an effective study guide.
2 - STARTING YOUR BUSINESS (The Right Way) - When you turn your magic into a money-making business, here are some important things you'll want to do correctly from the very start.
3 - WHY? - Why should a skilled magician focus on "little kids"? Because you'll be out doing paid shows, polishing your skills, performing, instead of sitting at home practicing sleights and complaining about how little work there is. But that's just the beginning!
4 - COSTUME & CHARACTER - "Tuning up" your character as a magician, and doubling your sales by offering an easy and simple clown character. How to easily change between clown and magician in a single day's series of shows.
5 - SELECTING YOUR MAGIC - Here's how to choose the best effects and take them from "ordinary tricks" to SUPER ENTERTAINMENT! We'll take a familiar trick right out of a book, demonstrate it as written, and then "turn it on" with entertainment and fun!
6 - ROUTINING - Parents expect more than just magic… Here's how to structure your show into complete birthday party entertainment, adding popular features like games, balloons, and some "secret super-seller" ideas!
7 - SETTING YOUR PRICE - HOW MUCH to charge and WHY! How to find out what people will pay. (I'm gonna make some people angry here, but this is the only effective way!)
8 - SELLING - Where to advertise, how to avoid wasting your money and your effort, and how to make sure YOU are the one they book! Fine-tune your sales pitch with strategies that SELL!
9 - PERFORMING - How to do the most effective performance easily, how to make sure both parents & children love what you do, and much more!
10 - WORKING WITH CHILDREN - What makes a children's audience really GREAT? How can you do more than "control" children… how to turn all that noise into ENTERTAINMENT "GOLD"!
11 - HANDLING PROBLEMS - If you perform a lot (and you will), the unexpected will happen. Here's how to take it in stride and turn a difficulty into a success! How to eliminate problems before they happen!
12 - BALLOONS - A ten-minute lesson in basic balloon-twisting. Even if you've never tried balloon sculpture before, here are six basic designs you can do today, a "golden moment" that parents will remember next year, plus how to learn more (and why you don't really need to)!
13 - SOURCES - Ross's recommended books, routines, suppliers… and where to get what you need for LESS!
14 - OTHER PUBLICATIONS 15 - CREDITS
Each chapter features "study notes" condensing the essential points to remember.
GOOD HEAVENS, ISN'T THAT ENOUGH?!?!
You'll see Ross's feature effect (a live rabbit production), how Ross gets
7-8 delightful minutes out of the "Chinese Sticks"
(and no, there's none of that stupid "the tissle is now a tassle and the tassle is a tissle" routine)
and how to turn the "Cut & Restored Rope" into a big finale effect!
ALL RIGHT, WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT?
If you're looking for studio-quality lighting and sound, you'd better look elsewhere. You'll find that Ross is terribly fond of "cute" animations (probably a bit TOO fond) and there's the occasional dog walking through, lighting of varying quality, the sound could be better, but look … this is like an evening's conversation and advice from a friend in the business, liberally illustrated with photos, pictures, and excerpts from several performances.
You get all the information Ross can give you from his 25 years of fulltime experience, and that's a lot! And you're going to get a heck of a price…
