Paul Romhany
THE BLURB:
Romhany shares everything in this book including how to get in to the market, how to get booked on cruise ships as a speaker, selling products, how to write speeches, how to make money from this, putting together an entire package, incorporating magic in to your presentations, PLUS it includes Romhany's own presentation that he has made his living from both on land and at sea. As a bonus he has also included all of his research notes to do with his own topic "Laugh Yourself Well". As any magician/speaker will tell you, the biggest benefit of doing this is not only the difference in fee you can charge but the contacts and networking that come out of giving a key note address. This is where 99% of corporate work comes from - as well as back of room sales. It's all in this 250 page book. Those who purchased and are using Romhany's speaking package have this to say: "This is a must read for anybody who wants to break in to the very lucrative After Dinner and Key Note speaking market - and for any magician who wants to increase their income"! - Richard Webster - author/keynote speaker "This is without a doubt the clearest and most inspiring book that has ever been sold on this subject". Justin (Bro) Gilbert - Professional magician and TV consultant for Chris Angel "I can honestly think of no better system for a magician wanting to break into the Public Speaking arena then this book. Hell, I've been doing it for years and after going over your material I have found several ways to improve my performance. Thanks Paul, I never fail to be inspired by you." - TC Tahoe professional magician and key-note speaker "If you are a magician and want to take your performance and career to the next level and enter the world of motivational speaking, Paul Romhany has literally paved the way for. The information and research that he has done is matched by real world performing experience and insight. The script alone is worth every penny!" - Randy Charach - author Secrets Of A Millionaire Magician Pages: 250 - Softbound MY COMMENTS: As you may be aware, keynote speakers do command higher fees than most mentalists or magicians. What many are doing these days are selling motivational or informational talks, such as "Laugh Yourself Well," and peppering the talk with magic or mentalism. The bottom line here is that, assuming you are a professional, if you don't have a talk to offer your clients, you should develop one. Now, if you don't know how to do that, and/or how to get into that market, this book is an excellent primer in getting into that field. This 250 page, 8.5" by 11" softbound book covers everything. The chapters include: Introduction, Puttint It All Together, The Speech, Putting a Speech Together, Basic Presentation Skills, The Basis of My Speech, Magic Tricks and Applications, Business Side of Speaking, Promoting Yourself, Putting Together a Business Plan, and How to Make Money as a Speaker, plus additional sections containing information about the topic of humor at the workplace, if you'd like to use that topic for yourself. The main idea here is that this is a primer. Anyone who has done any type of public speaking before knows most of the information here. And it's bare bones basic information. For instance, if you need help in developing material, this gives the basic info on how to do it, but it does not contain an extensive workshop in doing that. What it does have is Romhany's complete thinking on his own talk, "Laugh Yourself Well." And this is quite instructive. If you've never done public speaking before, and have no idea how to create a talk or approach this market, this book certainly will provide some solid and useful advice. If you don't have a talk to offer your clients, I highly recommend you do so, and this book is certainly a solid place to begin.
