    Years ago I work in Chicago Pickle Barrel this information would have been so valuable to me as a young magician I was lucky enough that another magician when on vacation gave me a chance at the restaurant so I didn't have to do that the information that you're giving is so powerful that I have to thank you even though it's kind of late for me it'll be great for other magicians especially the young ones starting out again thank you I've looked at your other videos well done very informative it's one thing to be a good magician but you also have to be a good businessman of what you are again thank you

    What type of restaurants are best to approach?

    • @OBrienMagic
      @OBrienMagic  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Evan Chartrand I’d look for privately owned businesses over corporations. Usually the decision maker is easier to access.

    Michael, I have a different approach which I think would work well, yours is rather a traditional approach...if I have time I will run it by you.

      It is hard to judge whether you are high or low. Depending on your area. I will give you an example if you work in an area and it's a higher income area getting higher rates is easier. But if you live in an area with lower income getting the higher rates maybe a hard thing to do. So you need to take a look at the area and evaluate what your time is worth. In my area in the metro Detroit area for a one hour kids show i charge $190.00 with balloon twisting I charge $215.00. Some people will say that is too much some will say it too little. So look at your area and what your time is worth then finally what do you need to make to make it profitable.
