Don't Be a Fool and Wait

Don't wait until you have you been asked to present a motivational magic program. Prepare yourself now! Don't torture yourself and destroy your professional image by quickly developing a motivational magic program after you have been asked. Waiting until the last minute will be frustrating.

You have to figure out what your message will be, how to best script it, which tricks to use, and then practice them till you know they are presentable.

You would be surprised of the number of people who call me at the last moment needing a magic trick to illustrate a motivational magic message. First they need it right away and then they want my help writing their script not to mention they need the time to practice the whole routine.

Why do that to your self? If that how you perceive “Motivational Magic” then I suggest you stop fooling yourself. Why wait until you have been asked?

If you find yourself working for clients who are looking for more than a magic show rather an inspirational/motivational program with a little bit of entertainment to make it fun then start now!

Don’t wait until the last minute. Prepare yourself now. Decide now what topics you want to focus upon. Start writing your scripts and carefully choose the effects you want to use to illustrate your message.

Test Them Out

After you have decided what topics you want to address (also note the ones you do NOT want to address) you need to pick an effect that will best illustrate your message. Test them out.

Put one of your new motivational magic tricks in the middle of your current magic shows. Test it out on the audience’s you currently are performing for. You don’t have to deliver the whole message, just enough to perform the effect. Decide if it fits you. Master the skills needed to create the effect. Make it a part of you.

I found people appreciate a short motivational message in the middle of a show for entertainment purposes. Make sure it is entertaining, fun and magical. It also advertises your ability to present such a program to those interested.

Deciding now what effects you want to use to illustrate your motivational messages will put you ahead of the game. You routines will look more professional and you will enjoy your work as a professional motivational magician.

One more secret, once you start your work on creating a list of routines and effects for your motivational programs you will be unconsciously begin to attract those types of programs toward you. You be making more money resulting from better paying bookings and at the same time enjoying the process. Why, because they want it and you created it.
