What the readers have to say:
“This book is a great primer not only for magicians but for anyone who wants to be paid for being onstage in front of audiences. Personally, I found it applied so well to my career as a public speaker - I especially liked the chapters on "How to Book Gigs" and "Social Media" which is where most people really struggle in their performing careers.
It's full of great, practical step by step advice on how to manage your career from the starting line to the stage in the modern era. Easy to read and easy to understand lessons from one of the great magicians of our time.
Highly recommended!”
