Here's how to make people want to book you back
This is another tape for that very small group of people who entertain for a living and want to do the best possible job. It is a combination of proven theory and specific practical techniques to get the greatest response from your act. The tape is based on the work we have been doing to take our acts beyond the "string of tricks" syndrome.
Yes, I know that the potential market for this tape is tiny, but it's one of those projects that had to be put on tape, regardless of the fiscal outcome. On this one-hour audio cassette, Advanced Techniques for Effective Entertainment, we discuss show design, plotting, scripting, body language, stage deportment, staging, neuro-linguistic programming, pacing, audience attitudes, rapport, and more. We've taken the best we could find from over 100 sources, combined it with our own experience, and given you the works.
If you're one of the few who have gone beyond the stage of just doing a string of tricks or "demonstrations", and you want to unify your act and make it truly memorable, you'll find information here that you can use. Advanced Techniques is just $17.98. Order today and put this information to work in your shows.

Make good money and have fun with balloons
Having made a substantial part of my living over the past few years playing with latex bubbles, I know what sells and what doesn't, how to sell the gigs, and how to entertain with balloons.
On this one-hour tape, The Balloon Business, you will learn where to buy balloons, how to sell balloons as an added attraction to your shows, what to charge for paid gigs and for pitching, handling crowds at outdoor events, how to deal with bookers, over 75 bits of business and lines to use as you make animals, how to deal with kids and adults and have fun doing it, live performance excerpts, and much much more!
If you combine this tape with our Balloon Video, you will have as complete a course on practical, money- making balloonology as is available. This information can help you become a balloon entertainer, not just a balloon dispenser. As with our other tapes, there is no filler and no padding on this tape. What you get is an hour packed full of the real work. The amazing thing is that I'm charging just $17.98 for The Balloon Business.

The easy way to do balloons for money
Two of the most common remarks we hear from performers at lectures and in correspondence are: "I've tried to do balloons, but I can't blow the darn things up" or "I can't figure it out from the books." You no longer have any excuse!
This highly acclaimed fifty-five minute video by Brian Flora, The Balloon Video, covers 15 basic sculptures. This is the easy way to learn a good repertoire of balloon animals, hats, and novelties. The emphasis here is on how to entertain with balloons for above average money. You'll learn: basic technical matters, including inflation, tying, and pumps; our working set-up; where we carry supplies and how we reduce fumbling; some of our favorite outs, to cover pops and other potential mishaps; plus our method for making the model hot air balloon.
Ian Adair told us that he had learned more from watching this video than anything he had ever seen on balloon modeling. In Abra, Donald Bevan said "Definitely recommended for balloon modelers of any degree." If you want the real work on how to do balloons easily for money, this is the tape for you.
Combine the information on this tape with our audio release The Balloon Business (above), and you'll be on your way to making real money blowing bubbles! The Balloon Video is just $55.00.

New, easy laughs and thrills for your shows
Welcome to the strange world of The Incredible Dog Food Dish of Death. Witness the bizarre manipulation of objects in a ritual banned by less sophisticated nations around the world. Thrill to the near death experiences of innocent members of the audience. Torture yourself with howls of laughter, and relish the thought that you are among the few who have been a part of this and lived to tell the tale.
Yes, dear friends, it is without shame that we present an exclusive video release, The Incredible Dog Food Dish of Death. When we were taught how to do plate spinning and juggling a few years ago by our good friends Jim and Daryl Hobbs, we never imagined that it would become one of the most impressive and requested parts of our family programs. Now, you can use it too!
On this video, you'll learn the correct way to spin a plastic plate on the end of a stick. If this doesn't make you tingle, consider that you'll also learn three complete routines using the plate, stick, balloons, and other simple props. You'll add a new dimension to your show at repeat gigs, and have a new selling point for new clients.
We eliminate the frustration experienced by people who use the store-bought sets of stick and plate, and show you the secret to painless plate juggling. You'll be spinning the thing in minutes, and you'll learn how to put this simple skill to work in your shows right away. This cool video is just $55.00!

You can get more laughs and more fun from each kid show you do

This is a blow-by-blow explanation of one of our standard kid shows - the uninterrupted show that was heard without explanations on MMU #2. As you know if you have heard it, the show is wall-to-wall laughs. Every laugh and response to every line during the show is explained.
I have also included: a complete props packing list, how I pack the show, how I vary this show for various ages, and much, much more. The Kid Show Tutorial is ninety minutes long, and is just $17.98.
