Dear Event Planner, Hello there! Thank you so much for your interest in our award-winning entertainment for special events. We have exactly what you need to make you look like a hero, which is how we maintain great relationships with our clients. We know that companies like ours sound alike after a while, so we would also like to give you additional information which will help to distinguish us from the others, and which, we believe, will prove beneficial as you plan or make recommendations for your upcoming events. We have even provided interactive videos, so you can “try before you buy”! As you are probably aware, entertainment companies mostly fall into three categories: a. There are companies which hire people, teach them a skill and send them out to do that skill. b. There are individuals who used to work for those in category a, who branch out on their own. c. There are Professional Entertainers who network with other Professional Entertainers, who understand events from the client side as well as the artists’ side. We fall into that third category. We are Professional Entertainers whose client base has grown so large over the last 20+ years (with over 300 events each year) that we have expanded to create a network of the best entertainers in the area to fill the needs of our growing list of repeat customers. Because we are entertainers with extremely high standards, we are very picky about those with whom we work. We are so confident in our entertainers that we are one of the only companies in the area to offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee on all of our services. We are a favorite of event planners because of our commitment to excellence, reliability and customer service. We’ll look good, so you’ll look good!1 ©Copyright, A Touch of Magic, Inc.

BACK to MENU Event Planning FAQs: Hcoouwntdso”?I qualify for one of your “volume dis- For large events we recognize that you have a lot of people to reach, and often, on a shoestring budget. That’s why we offer volume discounts when you bundle your entertainment. Rather than have you get stuck with the entertainment you can “afford” (which often means sub- standard entertainers or artists who are untrained or inexperienced, making them slow and nervous), we’d rather give you the best entertainment at a discount. For each 10 wo/man hours of entertainment you hire, you’ll receive 5% off of our services. But XYZ Company is so much cheaper. Why? Some companies have to compete with price, because they cannot compete with quality. Our clients who have used us consecutively for 15+ years recognize that “you get what you pay for”, and their guests deserve to have something great! Aren’t you all offering the same things? Yes, we offer the same types of entertainment, but they are definitely not the same! In the Twin Cities, entertainment providers are plentiful, with promises and prices all over the map. We’re right in the middle. More expensive than some. Less expensive than others. You need to decide whether or not you’re more interested in price or quality. Remember that, of all the things you spend money on, your entertainment will be the single most talked about element of your party. They won’t talk about the food, the venue or the prizes. But they WILL reflect on the memories made by the entertainment (and post about it on Facebook)! Do you really want to cut corners there? Saving $25 an hour on entertainment won’t matter if you wasted the $100 you did spend! lWimeitreedal.lyWwilalnytotuomusaetcyhoXuY, Zbucot mouprabnuy?dget is We’ll do better than that! We’ll create a proposal for you, either based on how many people you want to reach, or how much money you have to spend, and show you how we can reach more people in less time, thereby saving you money OR reaching more people! (Some companies will charge a rock-bottom price, even though they can only reach a fraction of the numbers we can reach. The hourly rate might seem really low, but you’re not hiring someone to “do time” at your party! You’re paying for a service!) Let us work our magic with your numbers! If we can’t help you, we’ll try to direct you to someone who can. We know who’s good and who’s not, and we want you to have a great experience, even if we aren’t the ones providing it! 13 ©Copyright, A Touch of Magic, Inc.
