Mark is right; about five minutes would strike me as the ideal time. I was averaging seven minutes per person, because I am used to doing longer readings under less pressure. However I will work on it and shorten them slightly. Perhaps I will leave out the Chinese numerology chart, though that is a handy way of giving out my contact details.
I have another gig coming up later this week, and I will bring the average down to five minutes, with the aim of doing ten to twelve readings an hour. The idea is to give out twelve tickets an hour, and those with the ticket will get a reading. It means I will be there a little over an hour for every hour booked, but that creates the impression I am giving value. The tickets might also serve as a way of giving out the contact details.
I will be making myself available for hen nights, birthday parties, etc, but not for private readings.
I must say I enjoy this far more than I ever enjoyed close-up.
