Hello everyone.
I've been doing close-up magic for 6-7 years, but all of a sudden I started getting proposals to promote some products at various trade shows. Maybe I could manage to do that but it's an entirely new field for me. I think this kind of business will continue. Therefore, I'm asking you for the essential trade show sources and advice, books, routines, videos or pamphlets.
Thanks in advance and wish me luck.
Pawel from Poland.

Eddie Tullock has a two video set that shows him in action. He explains the tricks he does and shows how he works the message into the act.

The second tape has an interview he does on trade show business with Michael Ammar.

Check them out.

Pavlo,

Also obtain some of the Karrell Fox books.

He was the trade show pitchman for a major car manufacturer here in the U.S. for many years and many of his printed routines can be be adapted to fit just about any product or service.

I use several ideas from Fox's books in my own trade show work.
