Magic, Balloons, Art and Writing

I am a full time magician in the Seattle area. Trying to break into this business can be tough, especially with so many people in the industry being close-lipped and unwilling to help anyone who isn't part of their own personal fan club. Many magician/entertainers act as if any new person to the trade with threaten their business and very existance. It's crazy, but you wouldn't beleive some of the opposition I have run into from these so called "Family Friendly" entertainers, who are more concerned about turning a few bucks and getting admirers than about the things that matter . . . Family Friends and customer service!

So here's my proposal. I would like to have an open forum for all entertainers (I don't care what you do, as long as it's for your business and for your customer's entertainment)

So ask any questions you'd like . . . about prices, customer sevice, tricks of the trade, etc. I would love to have all of us help each other, especially us experienced entertainers helping those just starting out. Remember, competition is good for business and personal growth. BAD competition can ruin an industry. Lets all try and improve each other the best we can.

Take Care, and post anytime!
