Review
I seem to remember that I got this as a free download after making a purchase at magictricks.co.uk - but I may be wrong and just succumbed to the 'special offer' pop-up window that appeared and just stuck it on top of my order. I might have even used it to make up the order so I got free postage. Not entirely sure. I've had it a while though, and I must say, it's been, well, useless to me, really.

It's an adobe file, with 50 ideas on how to make some money from your magic. It's been useless to me so far because I don't have an act as such to promote.

If you're already a working pro, then this may give you some ideas as to either 'branching out' or simply thinking about different avenues to perform your magic.


Overall
As I've said above, it's totally useless to me at the moment, but if you're a working pro, or you have an act already and are looking for ways to get it 'out there' and get some bookings, then I reckon this'll be extremely helpful for you.

I reckon a 7/10. It's cheap though, so why not just get it anyway.
