The 'Magic Marketing Masterclass' Resource Pack
Module 1: Social Media and Magic with Julia Bramble
Reviewed by Jay Fortune
In October 2012, Mark Leveridge hosted a one-day 'Magic Marketing Masterclass'
for magicians to learn more about the business-side of being a magician. Three
expert speakers offered seminars, the first for review being Julia Bramble.
Julia is the media expert for a large national organisation devoted to helping
business move forward by embracing social media platforms such as Linked-In,
Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
To be a successful performer has always meant having a keen understanding of
communicating your product with potential buyers. Whilst there are agents who
will work with talented acts, the internet has given a huge advantage for buyers
to research talent and engage the most appropriate magician for their event.
Having a good grasp of using online media allows the savvy magician to market
their product and connect with clients.
Enclosed in this module are three DVDs on which can be seen Julia's full
presentation '9 Simple Secrets to Social Media Success', answering questions and
talking through each social media platform in detail. The accompanying booklet
provides a summary of creating an effective campaign for a magician to
implement. Julia shows how there's far more to social media than simply having a
profile or account. How you communicate, what and who you choose to engage with
will ultimately decide if your online socialising is time well spent, or simply
wasted away without producing paying customers.
If you have no prior knowledge of using social media then this module is a great
place to learn how it applies to you as a working magician. If you already
embrace various platforms, but without producing results are left wondering just
why you waste the time online, the DVDs and book will help clear your thinking
and revise your online strategy for success. There is a commitment of time when
socialising online. Those who choose to ignore it will probably see their paid
work gradually diminishing. Those who embrace it using Julia's '9 Simple Secrets
to Social Media Success' will find their time and effort well rewarded.
There are many books and courses teaching social media skills. At £99 this
resource pack is a good investment, as it is tailored specifically for
magicians. Recommended.
