Marketing and Booking Teleseminar with Craig Browning
This looks interesting. When Craig first released his book Psychic Technologies several years ago he discussed some tips and tricks on booking into alternative venues as a performer as well as general marketing tips and tricks. I myself even used some of these things and they worked well for me in certain venues. In fact the results from a couple of these things Craig mentioned in this book worked better than I expected. So later this week on Saturday Craig will be doing a teleseminar on marketing and booking covering a lot more new stuff hosted by Tony Blake. Now there is one thing Craig is going to reveal during this live event that may cause a bit of an uproar once this information is released. Its the big secret mentioned in the copy on the website for the event. This caused me to call him up on the phone and try to talk him out of sharing this. You see this is not the thing you want out in the open as it works to increase your money from a gig and if others know about this inside trade secret then there may be a bit less money to be had at gig in the area if everyone started using this thing. Which could be a bad thing if your in the know and already using this. So I had to try to get him to keep his mouth shut about this but I do think I made much progress but will see at the live event if the cat is out of the bag or not. As I said earlier this should be interesting as I used a few of his things from the PT book and got good results from them so will see what he has in store this time. The event will be at: Marketing and Booking Teleseminar with Craig Browning will be this Saturday, June 20, 2015 at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific at http://mentalistlab.com/ PS Craig if your reading this shhhhh! About the thing. Okay! |

We all know who Craig Browning is, and I for one am really looking to this teleseminar. The last one with Alain Nu was really good. When pro's decide to speak, everyone should stop and listen.
It looks like Craig is going to be covering some very important topics. Lets face it, marketing is something that stops most performers in their tracks. It can be very intimidating if you do not know what you are doing. I have met many excellent performers that never move into the "business" part of show business because they simply do not know how to promote and sell their services. Craig has been doing this for a long time. One thing I learned long ago was, pay attention to those that are already doing what you want to do. It can take years off of your learning curve. Years ago I bought into a system of how to market to a specific niche, and it paid off BIG time. I suspect this will be the case with the information Craig is going to share in this Teleseminar. I will definitely be tuning in for this. If you get just one little nugget of useful information it will be worth attending. But I think we will end up with a small handful of them. Aside from the marketing end of things, he is going to go into BOR sales. (Back of the Room) If you are doing shows, or plan to, you do not want to miss out on this gold mine. Setting up and knowing how to pitch BOR sales will add a significant amount of income for you. I am definitely looking forward to this!

I'm loving the MentalistLab Teleseminars, they have been a huge value so far. I always take something useful from Craigs thinking and even still re-read the old maketing articles he worte on the visions site years ago. Looking forward to this one for sure.

I take it that this is definitely aimed at Psychic entertainers and Readers, not Mentalist.

From what I have heard it will be a mix of content for Psychic Entertainers, Readers and Mentalists as some of what he will be talking about has a great overlap in markets. While some of it may be will be tailored to reading style work but other stuff will only apply to the stage mind reader.
Not that it matters all that much but at the last lecture I did for a psycotronics group they wanted to see some magic tricks and mentalism as well as the pure psychic stuff because they knew I made products for magicians. So there goes the conception of that argument which goes to prove that alternative style audiences really do not care as long as you can keep them engaged in what your doing. Which is did for over 2.5 hours. So I did some magic stuff and some mind reading tricks. Then I did the pure psychic stuff and knocked there socks off. And the only thing I do now is simply state that I am a psychic who plays a fraudulent mind reader.Which allows me to do what ever I want to do for any group I am working with. At a show the other day I even broke out me blue sponge balls and Uncle Bobby's favorite sponge trick. Proving once again none of the standard mentalist magician over thinking is not absolute or even factual for that matter. Not that I would do this mixture of stuff all the time but depending on the group you can do as thou wilt. Which by the way was extremely fun. |

In the sense that we use the word "psychic" it simply means "of the mind." And since we coined the term "psychic entertainer" you can be sure we've got the definition right. |

Thanks for the clarification guys. I read the blurb on it and looked at the markets it quoted and wasn't quite sure if my interpretation was accurate for the area of mentalism I actually perform. Appreciate your replies

Will be interesting to see Craig's techniques in action with his current GoFundMe campaign. A successful GoFundMe campaign could go a long way to selling this seminar. http://www.gofundme.com/xuvgkf7
EDIT: Whoops! Looks like I missed the date of the seminar. It already happened. Oh well.
