If you manage a restaurant you need a magician

You already know that restaurant industry is competitive. Along any Indy main street, there are plenty of options when it comes to going out to eat—even plenty of great options.

As a consumer how you do decide where to eat?

It would take a long time to count all the eateries that tap out every month on account of not being able to compete; and moreover the restaurants failed to offer their customers a good enough reason to use their services.

A professional magician does more than stroll from table to table entertaining guests at their table, performing close-up magic (this type of magic happens right in front of their eyes and even within their hands).

Having a house magician solves a dozen issues that a successful restaurant faces. A seasoned magician typically performs before the food is served or in between courses.

Now that I have that out of the way let me give you a few reasons why you need magic in your establishment:

Your guests will thank you

Magic is in season right now.

David Blaine, Dynamo, Derren Brown, Criss Angel—the list goes on and on.
Magic is very popular with the general public.

Penn & Teller havesold out auditoriums in Las Vegas with their stage show. TV shows have magicians all the time—do I need to mention Penn & Teller’s Fool Us, which received the nomination for Critic’s Choice Television Award for Best Structured Reality Series–plus more touring magic shows are happening now more than ever in the past.

People LOVE to see magic and are prepared to pay to do so. As a restaurant manager/owner this is something you should take advantage of.

Close up magic is even more popular.

Of course, “close up magic” is the sort that is performed right in front of the spectator’s eyes and in Jon Finch’s case in their own hands.

As a magician, I frequently hear people say that don’t fully trust the magic they see on TV, but that when it happens to them they have a change of heart.

Close up magic is perfectly suited to a restaurant environment. You can have a magician going from table to table and your customers will love it.

Unlike other entertainment, magic is inconspicuous.

If you decide that entertainment would work in your venue, there are many options. But other forms of entertainment have to be experienced by the whole venue.

One example is Karaoke. Karaoke can draw people into the restaurant–people looking for that sort of thing; but it can repel as many who dislike it.

Oftentimes people walk into a restaurant that has a Karaoke system set up, and they immediately walk out. If I wanted to eat there I HAD to listen to a couple hours of terrible singing and I didn’t want to do that.

The same is true of singers, bands, accordion players, comedians – every other type of entertainment – either you’re forced to stomach it or you leave.

Magic, on the other hand, is unobtrusive. A magician strolls from table to table engaging one group with magic and then another one. If a group doesn’t like magic or they’d not participate, they aren’t obliged to (unlike most other forms of entertainment.

It means you can put on entertainment which most customers will enjoy but you don’t have to worry about driving away customers.

Magic gives you a competitive advantage.

As noted above, people have plenty of choice of where to eat–even places that have outstanding cuisine.

How can you differentiate your venue from the dozens of others within the same area?

Simply offer something unique that no other restaurant in your market is able to match.

How can you beat that?

Most folks these days don’t go out to eat every day. So when these guests do choose to eat out they want a unique experience and they want to get the most for their money.

If you were going out and there was a choice of two venues, both the same other than one was advertising free entertainment, which would you chose? More which would your customers chose?

One has outstanding cuisine, and another has outstanding cuisine and offers free entertainment as an extension of the eatery’s hospitality. It’s a no-brainer.

Magic encourages repeat customers.

Most restaurants I’ve worked with use me on a residency basis. This means that I go into the restaurant on a weekly or a bi-weekly basis. This is the absolute best way to use a magician if you REALLY want your business to increase. Why? Simple—magic induces incredible word of mouth.

You know as well as I that there are few venues you can go to in Indiana to see magic. This is even more true for close-up magic.

When your guests see a great magician entertain, they typically want to see more. More they will want their friends to watch as well.

I’ve been in restaurants before when the customer dining has called their friends to come and join them there and then because they really HAVE to see the magician.

Restaurants I’ve worked with on a weekly basis focus a great deal of their advertising on getting people in on the nights I am there.

You would be amazed at the amount YOUR guests will come back every week to see the magic. They will even bring their friends and family as well.

Whatever your clientele, magic can work really well.

The great thing about close up magic is that you can adapt the performer or adapt the performance depending on the venue you are performing in.

When a magician is performing at a upscale restaurant he can use sleight of hand, mentalism, and effects engineered particularly targeted to a discerning audience.

On the other hand if you own or manage a family restaurant, the performances can be changed to appeal more to children and teenagers.

In fact with family restaurants there is the ‘The Child Decider’. Your child will choose where you go out to eat as a family. If you have children and have been to a restaurant where there is a magician doing magic tricks, when it comes time to pick where to go again, where do you think the child will choose; the place where there is nothing going on or the restaurant where they can watch the amazing magician?

Benefits of having Finch entertainment in a nutshell(yes, Jon Finch can fit into any a venue)Fortune Teller

Magic
    Mentalism
  • Personalized entertainment—especially good for special occasions, like anniversaries and birthdaysFortune Teller
  • Unique entertainment, an extension of the restaurant’s hospitalityFortune Teller
  • A cover for delays in seating and delays in the kitchenFortune telling dates back to a time when people were full of superstitions. They wanted to know the future so they could prepare for the unknown.
  • Entertain guests on busy nights
    • Their tricks of divination include things like tarot cards, sticks called bile, and phallic images called yoni. While these have been replaced with more scientific methods, you can still learn a thing or two from them. The earliest fortune tellers were the Babylonians and the Assyrians. They already had their gods and goddesses, a religion, a king, a social system, and a strange practice called extispicy. Extispicy was the inspection of animal entrails to determine things like whether there would be human deaths, who would win battles, or even whether good crops might grow in the coming season., the “entrails” refer to the animal’s bowel movement or excrement. The animal had to be an unblemished male. The diviner then examined the texture, color, and even smell of its poop to let them know where the good and bad fortune will come from.
  • Increase business on slower nights
  • Draws return customers that bring new customers with themThe Babylonians were in the business of predicting the future, but they did this via omens. That meant looking for signs like rain, cracks in a rock, weird bird behavior, or even changes in a mountain or wall. They relied on Babylonian astrology, an ancient belief that the position of planets and stars affects human destiny. Either way, fortune-telling is old and has been practiced in one form or another ever since. It has evolved and changed over time. One major change is that it now uses cards instead of sticks, which have been used to predict future events for thousands of years. The earliest cards were used in China during the Han dynasty. They were carved into designs or shapes that represented the meanings of things like good fortune or bad luck. They had drawings of animals and people. The Chinese were left-handed. Their fortunes were read with the right hand.

This divination spread throughout Asia, and you can even find it in India, Japan, and Korea. You can even find it in ancient Egypt, where it was known as a means of knowing about the future by casting lots. By casting lots, they determined what was going to happen to an individual based on fate. The practice eventually spread to Europe and affected its culture at large over time. That meant the cards were known as “tarot.” these cards are divination tools based on a system of symbolism called “tarot de Marseille” or “tarot of Roman Marseilles.” fortune telling used to involve palm reading. This technique involved reading the lines in people’s hands to tell them about health, spiritual matters, and even love affairs. It has to do with people’s lifelines and their ability to create luck at work.
The line on your hand can show your personality, how well you have developed your potential, or even how much wealth you will acquire in the future. Square palm lines represent hard work and stable finances. Spade shapes, on the other hand, measure the quality of your luck. This will tell you if you have good health, are emotionally stable, or even how your spiritual development will turn out.

It is said that the reading can be affected by the lines found on the hand. Some kinds of lines become thicker as time passes. That means you can get a glimpse into your future via palmistry. Nowadays, fortune telling has evolved again in a way that uses letters instead of cards and even numbers instead of sticks. There is alphabetology or magical alphabets. Alphabetology is the practice of using letters to produce magical names. It involves looking for names that might be given to babies or even determining the best time for a person to get married based on their first name. It is an exciting study that can help you deepen your understanding of yourself and your relationships. In magic, using letters is not new. Many civilizations have used this form of divination over time.
You can read more about them in places like India, China, Greece, Egypt, and Rome. The Egyptians were able to understand how the alphabet had been formed based on what they called “hieroglyphs.” these were symbols depicting the actions of their gods. Ancient Greeks, meanwhile, used letters to support or enhance their own beliefs. This was what they called “grimoire maikos—the esoteric branch of magic.” in Latin culture, alphabetology was known as abecedarius divinationis.

IF you own or manage a restaurant you need a magician

Abecedarius divinationis is a system of divination in which all the letters of the alphabet are used. Each letter means something depending on how it is arranged on a piece of paper or a table, known as a “magic square. ” you can use this in fortune telling and other kinds of divination. There is numerology, which is the study of numbers and numbers alone. Numbers are the most important components of a person’s identity. The numbers themselves are based on dates, birth dates, and more. They can tell you about your personality, your strengths and weaknesses, or even foretell upcoming events in your life. The other forms of divination have been argued to predict future events accurately.

Having a magician in a restaurant is cost-effective and will generate repeat business and new business.

Obviously you have to pick the right magician to be sure it’s a good fit.

Perhaps arrange for a performer to come in to let you to watch the reactions of your customers and listen to the laughter.

I promise that you will soon wonder why you didn’t do this years ago.

In numerology, numbers carry a special significance that can affect our lives in some way or another. It is based on a study that suggests that numbers are capable of creating positive vibrations in your life. They avoid negative emotions and situations. Numerology is a popular form of divination used in psychological and spiritual practices. Like other forms of divination, it uses symbols and numbers—usually the numbers four, seven, and ten. Numerology is supposed to have positive effects on one’s life or even predict one’s future.
There is the tarot, an old form of fortune-telling based on a deck of cards. Tarot involves using tarot cards to make predictions regarding your future, relationship, or even career. What differs from most fortune-telling techniques is that these cards aren’t merely used for prediction alone. These tarot cards are associated with various types of symbolism. Tarot is usually associated with the concept of “guiding light” or “magical protection.” this symbolism is based on the meaning of each card. These cards are said to have a level of power depending on their position on the layout.
