Sell with juggllng!  Here's two who have already...

 

FRANK MONCRIEF

THERE'S MORE THAN ONE WAY TO make a buck juggling!

 

I sell ad space for an electronics magazine, and use clubs and balls in sales presentations to clients I know well. I've painted the name of my magazine and those of two close competitors on clubs. I juggle them with one spin when I discuss a one-page ad, two spins for a two-page spread, and triple spins or better for an insert!

 

There are holes cut in the cap of these inexpensive plastic clubs, and I've inserted paper-dolI "readers." The kicker for my act is to hand the clubs to the "audience" (clients) and have them pull out the readers, which show circulation figures for the three magazines.

 

Also, I've painted five stage balls and stuck on labels listing the names of five of my competitors. Peeling off the stick-ons leaves five colored balIs with white lettering of my company's name. I do a presentation with these also. I'm working on six!

SCOTT EDELMAN

SCOTT EDELMAN OF BROOKLYN, New York, started juggling a year ago. He enjoyed it so much that before long he began juggling at work. This caused complaints from coworkers when they were occasionally struck by flying objects.

 

To strike a happy compromise, Scott offered to put his company's labels on all his props. Now he is the official juggler of the Carlton Importing Company, importer of St. Pauli Girl and San Miguel beers.

 

With a year of experience, he doesn't drop much any more, and even performed as a juggling Santa Claus as the company Christmas party!
