Devin Knight
Safe Shows During COVID-19 Pandemic by Devin Knight

The definitive work on performing during the COVID-19 pandemic. Right now, most of the world is on lock-down. However, some areas will soon be relaxing these restrictions.

The $1000 Dollar A Day Show Plan by Devin Knight

This is ebook #3 in Devin's "Marketing For Magicians Series".

The Audiobook by Mystic Alexandre

You wrote this professionally produced audiobook. That's right. No author is mentioned in the recording. The audiobook is called: "M A G I C - A   T R A N S F O R M A T I V E   A R T"

The Golden Rules For Hiring Live Entertainment by Christopher Bolter

Tips and Tricks For The Entertainment Buyer and The Entertainer

Having worked as a professional magician and mind reader for the past sixteen years, I have seen hundreds if not thousands of venues all over the world. From Boston, where I am based, to Singapore, where I work for a few weeks once per year, and many cities and countries in between. A similarity that crosses all borders is the consistent lack of knowledge the client has when booking live entertainment. This is true for that of a variety type. (e.g magicians, jugglers, clowns, etc.).

The Jam Auction by Don Driver

There is no better demonstration of applied psychology than the Jam Auction, and Jack Nyberg is the recognized king of that money-making business. This is the ONLY video of Jack’s two-hour pitch from start to finish. Jack starts by building a tip and then, over time, has about 25 people standing in his tent for two hours waiting and wanting to give him money. Filmed on location with a hand-held camera this is unlike anything you’ve ever seen when it comes to crowd control, creating customers, and getting them to buy.
