ROSS MacRAE

10 GOOD REASONS
to hire
"THE OTHER GUY"

1 - Ross makes your child
THE STAR OF THE SHOW!

Ross knows his job: to make this
a day you and your child will never forget!

Ross's visit is "about" the children
(especially your child), not about himself.
All of the children are ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS,
not just spectators!

If your child is a little shy,
Ross has ways to lend a little courage.
If your child really prefers to avoid the spotlight,
Ross respects that, and will let him enjoy
the show the way he feels most comfortable.

1 - The other guy is
THE STAR OF THE SHOW!

The other guy is the STAR.
You hired him, so of course it's all about him.
He'll perform a special trick for your child,
if the kid behaves.

And he has a really expensive tuxedo…
kids really know it's time for fun
when they see an adult in formal wear.

Or if the other guy is a clown, then his costume
and makeup are really elaborate
("STOP CRYING, KID!")
and he looks just like a real circus clown
("CAN'T SOMEONE SHUT THAT KID UP?")

2 - Ross gives you FULL VALUE
for an affordable fee!

You'll find every feature you're paying for,
listed in detail on this page (link).
You'll get a detailed confirming letter
listing it all in writing.

Ross tells you exactly what he'll do in the show,
and he will deliver all that he promises!

After 25+ years of practice,
Ross knows what THRILLS a young audience
(not just what keeps them from being bored)
and he GIVES YOU YOUR MONEY'S WORTH!

2 - The other guy
gives you WHAT HE CAN
for your money!

You're not rich, and this guy was the cheapest —
IT'S A PERFECT MATCH!

He'll do as much as he feels like doing
in return for your lump of coal.

Don't ask him to tell you exactly what he'll deliver
for your money. "That would take away all the surprise."
(That means "trust me and hand over your money.")

He doesn't cost much because this isn't his specialty.
He has a "day job," and your "special day"
is just his hobby, something to keep him
out of his wife's way on weekends!

3 - Ross's show is
ALL YOU NEED!

There's really no need to plan
additional games/activities …
Ross's show is PLENTY of entertainment!

By the time Ross is done,
they're ready for a little cake and a nap!

3 - The other guy's show is
A GOOD START!

Unless you want a bunch of wild kids running around, you'd better plan on a piñata, and "Pin the Tail on the Donkey," and maybe some other games or crafts …
be sure you have enough to keep them busy after the other guy is gone.

His show will keep them quiet for a while,
but as soon as they have to wait as he makes a balloon
for each of 20 kids, YOU'RE ON!

4 - Ross UNDERSTANDS CHILDREN
& wins their attention easily & gently.

They're not "a wild bunch of kids"…
Having fun is why they're at a party!

Playing isn't "bad behavior," it's what children do!

Ross knows how to focus their attention
and keep them interested, active and happy!

4 - The other guy
CAN HANDLE THESE LITTLE BRATS
and keep them quiet!

He has read every strategy in the magic books
for "handling bad behavior"
and "dealing with kids who act up."

Don't worry, he won't let them get away with anything!

5 - Ross LETS YOU ENJOY
your child's special day!

Your child will only be this age once!
You should be able to share this special moment
with your child.

Leave the hard work to Ross. After his show, you give them the cake and you've done your job!

5 - The other guy TAKES IT EASY
on your child's special day!

He's not too concerned, so why should you be?

Look, this isn't Las Vegas or anything,
it's just a kid's party.

Besides, they won't remember this
past tomorrow anyway.

6 - Ross WILL BE THERE!

He's a professional, not a "weekend warrior".
This is his career, not a sideline.
You deserve someone with professional standards!
He'll be there, or he won't be paying his car loan.

And when you invite Ross,
YOU DON'T GET SOMEONE ELSE.
We don't handle 6 magicians, 2 clowns & a stripper.
When you call, you talk to Ross.
When you tell him what you need, he listens.
When you hire Ross, he shows up — in person.

6 - The other guy MIGHT BE THERE!

His wife needs to get him out of
the house, so he'll show up.
Unless there's a really good reason
(hey, how 'bout them Redskins, right?)

There's one other possibility:
hire a magician from an agency
and you get a "generic, one-size-fits-all" magician.
You never know who will show up,
and he never knows who you are
or what your concerns are.

7 - Ross has just one goal:
HELP THE KIDS HAVE FUN!

You'll never see Ross making the children sit and
watch quietly while he pulls another card out of his sleeve.

Your child and his/her friends are part of the show,
and they're always in the middle of the action!

And Ross even makes sure your child's siblings
don't feel left out — he'll call on them to take part, too!

7 - The other guy has just one goal:
FINISH THE SHOW AND LEAVE!

Remember, he's a VERY IMPORTANT MAN!

Those kids had better be quiet and let
"wonderful me" get through this.
He's got other places to go, so let's make this quick!

He's a serious magician … darn it, this is ART!

8 - Ross can HELP YOU PLAN
to get the most out of the party!

You've never done this before?
Relax … ROSS HAS, and he can help make it all easy!

He will be glad to suggest the best schedule,
a workable number of guests,
and a few other things you may not have thought of!

YES, you can videotape the show!

Don't forget to see his free "Party Planning Guide"
and his suggestion about "Goodie Bags"

8 - The other guy can HELP YOU PLAN
to make his life easier!

He's got RULES (after all, he has other things to do):
The children must all be waiting quietly and stay seated,
leaving enough room for his 3 tables full of props.
And you'll need to keep all of them out of his way while he sets up. And they'd better not make too much noise or stand up during the show!

And NO VIDEOTAPING!

Did I mention that he's a VERY IMPORTANT MAN?

9 - You CAN REACH ROSS
RIGHT AWAY!

Call Ross at 703-000-0000 for any reason
and he'll (almost) always answer in person!
Unless, of course, he's performing.

True, sometimes he's getting a haircut and sometimes he's taking his kids to the doctor. But this isn't a part-time job; he's almost always available to answer your questions day and evening (try to keep it between 9am-10pm).

Call any time, Ross is glad to help!

9 - The other guy
MIGHT CALL YOU BACK!

Call him for any reason and you'll reach
an answering machine…
remember, this isn't his "real job"!

Or maybe you'll talk to one of his kids, or his wife.

And he'll get back to you in a day or two.

No, really!

10 - Ross
REALLY LIKES CHILDREN!

And both adults & children really like Ross!
He enjoys helping the kids to have a great time
with an adult who likes and respects them.

Ross and his wife were Scout leaders
for seven years … you have to really like
kids to spend that much time with them!
And compared to that, a birthday party is easy!

He still remembers the magician he saw at age 5…
that memory marks the start of his path
to becoming an entertainer.

Ross's show is SAFE: no fire, no liquids, no needles.
Yes, they have children's tricks like that.
Lots of them.
No, I don't know why.

Your child will remember making that rabbit appear
for the rest of his life!

10 - The other guy
REALLY LIKES MAGIC!

Your kids should learn to appreciate really skilled
sleight of hand. It's an art. So is the art of clowning.
VERY SERIOUS STUFF!

The kids will probably be glad to sit quietly watching
him pull another card out of his sleeve for an hour!

He still remembers the magician he saw at age 5,
and how he tried to copy that magician's
cool trick with the FIRE!

He does the same cool trick for your party…
it's safe enough, nothing will go wrong (probably).
Then Your child will remember
the cool trick with the fire, too!
Maybe he'll even try to imitate it later.
