People love to be entertained. It is a fundamental rule that applies to people from various cultures throughout the world. If you are planning to have a booth at a trade show or are attending a convention designed to promote your business or services, hiring a corporate magician to enthrall your guests with a wide array of magic tricks and amazing illusions could help to promote your business in an indirect yet highly effective way.

Some of the first benefits you will find is a magician can hold an audience's attention while indirectly promoting your product or service so YOU stand out amongst your competition. A magician is easy to find, magicians can be found through listings such as the yellow pages, or even by conducting an online Google search. Some magicians will work independently, acquiring interested clients on their own, or they may be employed by an entertainment agency. You will find that many magicians can be hired at very reasonable rates, and will deliver an exciting visual show that will undoubtedly keep trade show visitors entertained throughout the entire presentation. You will also likely be surrounded by a number of other booths, each competing with each other to gain the highest percentage of visitors to their locations. Having a magician performing magic in or around your area can help to attract interested people to your booth. It is a simple marketing strategy that is known to work well.


Magicians are typically skilled in a wide range of presentations. Many have secret tricks of their own that are not regularly seen, whereas others will perform tricks that are well-known yet still as entertaining as always. Classic magic tricks such as cutting a woman in half are still likely to please and awe the audience. Depending on what your product or service is a magician may be able to come up with something completely custom to WOW the audience into remembering you over your competition.

Another key benefit is trade shows are usually busy and filled with a large number of parents. Many parents will find it difficult to juggle between visiting booths and looking after their young children. If you have a magician performing magic for an audience, you can free parents to see what you are offering, as their children will likely have their attention riveted on the show that is taking place. Parents will probably be relieved to have some time to themselves, and will be happy to learn more about your company.


Another potential benefit is offered along the lines of customer attraction. Depending on the length of time that you will be showcasing your business, you can have your magician perform at regular intervals throughout the day. The time that you choose to hold the magic show should revolve around the busiest hours of the day, where large crowds will be gathering. This is the most appropriate time to stage an event of this sort. At the end of the show, you could carry out a short speech while you still have the overall attention of the crowd. Take advantage of this moment to explain a little about the services or products that your company is offering, and you may be surprised how well this strategy works out for you.

Overall remember that entertainment can be used as a GREAT marketing tool to make sure you stand out amongst your competition and propel your corporate message to new heights.
