You can't beat this price. I've been a student of magic for 40 years, but three months ago the "latex bug" bit me something fierce and out of the blue. I seem to have a knack for it. Right now, I am practicing and studying all I can on this subject but I do aspire to one day in the very near future to do this for money. I knew absolutely nothing about how to run a small business like this, but with the insight I gained from this, I am no longer filled with questions. In fact, I have more answers than I do questions at the moment. I know with this insight that I can make this a success in my local area.
Even if I don't reach the status that Carl reached in his career, I know it will be a journey with experiencing and an extremely fun, rewarding one also. Everything Carl shares in here is worth your time and attention and his enthusiasm has hyped me up to the point where I'm slowly but surely building a small humble walkaround business. It's great that if I ever have the opportunity to expand to the point Carl did, that I have access to his expert advice in this area also. His experiences he shares in this work are pure gold. The photographs are inspiring. It is my hope that the student gets inspired by this knowledge in a similar vein to me. It's no longer a question of if I will go down this commercial path with balloon twisting. It's just a matter of when. I just want to give this study a little time that it deserves before considering getting paid for it. Right now it's all about trying to add my personality to my existing future menu and building confidence, speed and consistency. I do look forward to the future work and experiences though and that is a blessing. Reading through this book is super quick but it's utterly amazing what you can learn from here and how much it could possibly affect the reader the same it did me.
Also, there's solid advice in here outside of balloon twisting regarding sound equipment and business sense. That alone makes this small investment on here a no brainer.
No designs are taught but you will learn from a true professional how you can turn this passion into revenue. I'm still utterly shocked by the price of this book. Super fun, informative, inspiring and quick read. Highly recommended!
