#039 - Are you using one of your most potent weapons in your magic show marketing arsenal? I'm talking about testimonials - the comments clients give you after you have 'wowed' them with your amazing magic. Most magicians don't do nearly enough with this potent weapon. In this episode, my good friend Jen Abrams stops by for a fascinating talk about testimonials! John and I discuss ways to use testimonials effectively, what NOT to do, and much more. This was less of an interview and more of a discussion between two pros. Happily, John and I agreed on just about everything. This episode WILL help you earn more money and book more shows with your magic!

Also, in this week's Trick talk, I review Sean Bogunia's incredible Dream System!

#035 - Will this be the LEAST listened-to episode of The Professional Magician Podcast? In this episode, my guest Jason Carney outlines reasons why getting insurance for your professional magic business is so important. Jason is a legal and financial expert and a fellow copywriter. We swim in a lot of the same copywriting waters. It's not the sexiest topic possible for this podcast, but if you are a pro (or want to become one) this episode is a must-listen!

#034 - In this week's episode, I take a closer look at a relatively unknown performing option for magicians. Teacher in-services are a great place to perform if you enjoy offering theme / educational programs for adults. The kind of show you offer would be similar to corporate motivational programs but without the alcohol! I have performed teacher in-services for years and find them to be very fulfilling. Even if you don't currently offer school shows for students, this is a great niche to consider.

Also in this week's Trick Talk, I review Tommy James' amazing Production Tubes!
