As a wedding magician, one can have great opportunities in
marketing his or her skills. There are many ways for one
promising magician to do that.
- For example, during the awkward period while waiting for the
couple's arrival in the venue of the reception, you can help
lighten up the tension by providing entertainment. Sometimes it
may take a while for the newlyweds to come to the reception, and
it is not a good idea for every one to be in a room that is full
of almost complete strangers waiting for the couple to arrive. A
magician like you can help ease this problem, and may become a
vehicle for people to talk and laugh.
- In several receptions, there is an emcee or a show band hired
to entertain the guests. However, watching a magician can be a
nice alternative for the usual dancing. While guests are eating
their dinner, a magician can give 45 minutes of laughter and
amusement. Cool tricks can be performed such as floating roses
that can be offered to the wedding bridesmaids.
- It pays to do some research. Find out if there is quite a
number of children going to the wedding reception. If so, then a
magician can make a special show for the children, providing a
nice diversion for them while their parents mingle around.
- These tips may bolster a wedding magician's reputation as a
creative one when it comes to performing on wedding occasions.
Now to be more productive while one is relatively free from
wedding gigs, or just about any occasion, why not create some
promotional brochures for your target market. Send out the
brochures to make this not-so popular kind of magician gig more
patronized.
- One might want to make a small "wedding planner" brochure,
providing information on food arrangements, flower services, on
renting a tuxedo or gown, among others. In the brochure, put in
an article on how magicians can provide great entertainment in
wedding receptions. Leave some room for your advertising.
Distribute these to establishments that cater to such occasions.
They would be happier to post the brochure if it includes their
establishments in the brochure.
- Ensure that the magician can be contacted easily. The
important contact details such as the phone and fax numbers, as
well as the magician's website, if any, and his or her email
address/es should be included in the brochure, too.
