“That aside not many rock bands sell guitars at shows.“
They do sell guitar picks and drum sticks though. Obviously branded. I’d compare that more to branded playing cards than tricks but still an interesting comparison. |

No not everyone is interested or amazed by magic or tricks, and no not everyone wants to buy something magic. And no most magicians are not celebrities to their audience - again the way many magicians think and it's delusional. Yeah, the 50-year-old fantasy stuff is getting old in every thread and it is almost always unrelatable or inapplicable. Again, there is a psychology and science to BOR sales, which many miss or completely disregard. |

Obviously the girls love her for what she does and has accomplished in what is normally a male dominated profession. The guys are blown away with her arms and strength as she routinely does more pull ups in the show than they can do themselves. The amount of people that want a ‘gun shot’ photo with her is pretty wild. All this helps create a connection and drives the merch sales.

So not at all like monkeys and bananas. Nothing to do with them liking magic even. It is the personal connection that people have and want a way to keep.

Connection: To Link, to Like, to Enjoy Hope that's clear. Tom

Could you write that ridiculous explanation in English? Or better yet don't. Wild monkeys don't even easy bananas so stop. They nerve encounter them and do not associate them with food even.
You have no clue what you're talking about AGAIN go figure.

If I came to YOUR show, enjoyed the performance, thought to myself you had talent, and you were offering the world’s greatest deal on one of your products, one that I even needed and could use. Do you understand why I would still NOT buy it? Think hard, I give you a few weeks before I explain it. Tom

Talent has NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
Tom stop. Please stop. Grown ups are talking. If you do not connect with an audience they will buy nothing. It is that simple. It is why pitch men to SO well. The CONNECT with the marks. Stop please. We have the answer. It is not monkeys and bananas. Stop. Please for the love of all that is good just stop. Stop your back handed insults, just stop.

Even a con artist needs ‘talent’ to fake that they are someone easily liked. The genuine likable person doesn’t have to fake it, they are easily spotted on stage. And while it’s not faked it did take a lot of practice to get that way. It’s a special talent than many don’t have. Tom

Tom please just quit.
Do you think you are actually informing anyone of anything? My lord do you have the ability to stop? I'm going to have to guess you don't.

Danny, it’s like you keep telling me, misinformation posted on here will cost people money and ruin their lives.
Telling people ‘talent has nothing to do with it’ is bad, bad, bad. I just wanted to correct your mistake. But now that we know talent is important, we both can stop. Can’t we? Tom

Tom, please contact the management and ask if you can have your own forum for all of this incessant blathering so discussions here can stay on topic, remain positive and productive, among those actually working in the business, dealing with facts, information, and experience, rather than your out of context, manufactured, imagined, pretend or imaginary perceptions and opinions.
You talk so much yet say nothing here on any of these topics. No substance, no facts, no experience, or anything from the position of being in the business of performing or entertainment. Even when specifically asked for you not to contribute you still do. Now it's to the point of this happening on EVERY SINGLE THREAD here, just for your need to be heard, whether on-topic, having any reference or relevance or not. Please, for the sake of everyone, either stop or ask for your own forum "Tom's Ramblings". We beg of you. |

Mindpro, the management would like to see all the back and forth stop. That can easily happen by you and Danny not responding to any of my posts in an insulting way and I would only have to post once on a thread. If you don’t like what I say, simply say I disagree and move on. I don’t like half the bragging you do on here, but I don’t constantly point out your hatred towards other magicians.
Like I’ve said, I’m not going to take all the insults and allow you and Danny to constantly preach how inexperience I am and make up outright lies about me. We all can get banned together or we can simply agree to stop the back and forth now. I say we move on and start new. ? Tom
