 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  We had a fantastic evening on 2nd August for our first ever JB33 Ball. Ed had been recommended to us and exceeded our expectations. Ed wandered around the tables engaging with people, they were blown away from the magic. We were also looking for someone to compare the evening and although Ed hasn’t done much of this he happily took on the challenge, the evening flowed as it should. Would highly recommended and will definitely use Ed next year.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  I saw Ed at a TedX talk. He smashed it. He displayed all the tenets you associate with a public speaker and I really enjoyed his presentation about embracing chaos and responding to what happens when things don’t go to plan. And the magic trick at the end was maaaaad!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  We recently had Ed perform at my father’s 80th birthday dinner, and it was absolutely amazing! He did a fantastic job connecting with guests of all ages, keeping everyone entertained with his incredible tricks and close-up magic. Moving from table to table, he had everyone in awe, from the kids to the grandparents. His charm, humor, and impressive skills made it a truly memorable experience. It was the perfect touch to a special day, and I can’t recommend him enough for any event! We will definitely be visiting him at one of his shows in Lichfield in the near future.

A mix of family and friends, with ages ranging from 2 to 75. Ed easily and professionally managed to entertain everyone. Simple straightforward booking process. Will not hesitate to use Ed again in the future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  I'm  so glad I took the gamble and asked Ed to visit our group to perform his talent.  It was Magic! This was a mid week, mid afternoon booking in a community hall. Not what you'd consider to be 'show biz'. He gave us a performance that amazed us all. His tricks covered mind reading, disappearing items, card guessing, predictions  and more. He engaged with many members of our audience,  which thrilled everyone. We were all amazed that even being up close, we couldn't work out how he did the tricks. I would hire him again.

A busy trade show is an incredible opportunity to generate leads and grow sales. But with every stand competing for attention, it's so easy to let that opportunity slip by. That is unless you have a trade shows expert on hand to craft an effective strategy for you.

When you hire me as your trade show magician, the real magic isn't in the tricks I perform, but in the transformation of your stand into an incredibly effective lead generation machine.

Here's how it works. I stop people in their tracks and draw them to your booth. Then I perform a short, tailored presentation that combines never before seen magic with your key product or service benefits. Finally, I'll deliver your call to action, whether that's more badge scans, more product demos or more introductory conversations with the sales team.

Magic is a unique and powerful tool for engaging with visitors to the trade show and making sure your name stands out, above the rest. The result is enhanced brand recognition, more and better quality leads and ultimately a significantly improved return on your initial investment in the show. Interested? Let's schedule a call to talk more.

TRADE SHOW MAGICIAN FAQs

How should we measure the success of your performances?

Success as a trade show magician can be measured through a combination of qualitative and quantitative metrics, including the number of leads generated, and the level of audience engagement around the booth. During and after the performance, you should monitor the crowd's size and interaction, badge scans, and how many leads convert into sales.

Personally, after the event, I encourage your feedback to understand the impact my performance had on your trade show goals. This allows me to continuously refine and enhance the magic presentations that I provide, in order to meet and exceed your business objectives.

Can you perform at trade shows outside of the UK, and what are the costs involved?

Absolutely, I am available to bring my performances and presentations to trade shows across the world. It's worth noting that I hold a European passport, for ease of travel within the EU.

For international events, the costs include my standard performance fee plus expenses for travel, accommodation, and a per-diem. I work closely with clients to ensure a transparent and straightforward planning process, considering all logistics to offer the best possible experience for your international event. Let's discuss your specific needs and tailor a package that fits your event and budget.

We've received a cheaper quote from another magician. What makes your service different?

It's understandable to consider various quotes when planning your trade show presence. A cheaper quote might offer close up magic entertainment around the stand, which can indeed attract a crowd. They may even offer to use branded props.

However, the key difference with my service lies in the strategic approach to lead generation. While close up magic attracts attention, my performances are designed not just to draw a crowd but to engage them deeply with your brand and products, and then to capture their contact details. This approach ensures the magic instead of mere entertainment serves as a powerful lead generation tool. Remember also that I bring to your event years of experience. I've solved many of the problems others haven't even thought of yet. In essence, investing a bit more in a specialised service translates into a more effective and measurable return on your trade show investment.

How does magic enhance promotions and product launches?

Magic adds an unforgettable element to promotions and product launches, transforming them from ordinary events into memorable spectacles. By integrating your product's features and benefits into bespoke magic performances, we not only capture the audience's attention but also create a lasting impression of your brand. This innovative approach ensures that your product launch stands out, making it more likely for attendees to remember and talk about your product long after the event.
