I work for a lot of party planners too, but none of them get 50% Al Angello

I was in a similar discussion with a stage hypnotism group I am with elsewhere. The consensus was it is more important how much you are working and earning than how much the booker was taking. Some of these agents do take 50%, it would be nice if we got to keep more but sometimes that isn't the case.
The ability to get shows is the most important thing once you have a show. Marketing is the most important part of any business, magic included. If you can keep yourself busy without agents then things are fine. If an agent takes 50% but gives you several thousand dollars you would not have otherwise it doesn't make sense to say no. |

Of course I don't usually get to see the agent's check, so what do I really know.

Is there going to be a fight over who gets a bigger check? Does size really matter after all? I think we need some New Year's Resolutions about name calling in here. Now kiss and make up.

I was not refering to Danny when I said ****, even though when I read the thread it sure sounded that way. I apologize, and I hope Danny, and I are still friends.
HAPPY NEW YEAR Al Angello

Thanks Al, I feel a lot better about the whole thing. You the man.

Great! It's nice to leave the old year with all differences made up, forgiveness all around, ready for a new start. The next fight begins tomorrow and we can do it all over again for 365 brand new days.
