494: Danny Orleans - the Omni-Magician

Danny Orleans is well known, well versed and well respected as both a children’s show entertainer and as a trade show worker. And adding to that, he and his wife, Jan Rose, also present an exceptional two-person mind reading act. Usually one would expect a successful professional to specialize in one field or another, but not both. Therefore, he is one of the few whom I refer to as an Omni-Magician who can do it all…and do it well.

"Danny Orleans performs one of the best kids magic shows -- strike that -- one of the best magic shows, I have ever seen." -- Mac King "This project is something special for reasons that transcend the magic show.”

Danny Orleans Trade Show Promotional Video 2015 for further details please visit www.TradeShowMagicGroup.com

In this week’s podcast, Danny talks about his websites where you can go to find additional information including a free download of his secrets to becoming a trade show magician.

AmazeKids.com where you can find tons of professional equipment for children’s entertainers

tradeshowperforersworkshop.com is where you can go to find information on trade show work and get your free download of his trade show book.

And if you are seriously interested in knowing more about trade shows, you can request to join the Trade Show Performers Group on Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tradeshowperformers/
