Hi Graham,

instead of PM'ng you I though I'd put this were anyone could read it.

I've just recently taken my 1st delivery of your Sempertex balloons. I've heard/read the hype how Sempertex were longer, better to model with  :roll: ....................................well actually..it's true. I did a helicopter the shape is absolutely just what I was after. And it was easier. Longer? Wow! By so much as well. I can't wait to see them in person at Kidology. I would like to see the full spectrum of colours. Will you be bringing them, Graham :?:

Oh & the delivery was excellent...I was sooo excited. Who said Balloon modellers need to get a life  Oh was that just me then :mrgreen:

I did my 1st proper balloon gig. Well not my 1st as such, but 1st as in getting paid per balloon.

It was at a school fete. I took £72 in a matter of 2hrs..........I'm really chuffed....really chuffed.  

I like it better than doing magic shows. I'm a bit stuck though on what to say to people when they are waiting. You know, to be entertaining.  :?

Hello there everyone,

are any of you with an agent? If so, is it any good, & can you recommend him/her?

Hi Guys & Guyesses  

I'm going to approach restaurants etc. So I'm looking for what to wear, I'm looking for waistcoat/vest.

Anyone know where I can get one in the UK?.

Steve

Thanks for any help given

Hi everybody,

I'm interested in developing a balloon act. where the best place to go to to find out? Don Caldwell has a balloon act - I think - so does Mike stokes. What exactly are you doing, I only know magic shows etc.

Can I jump on the band wagon? Can anyone suggest a name I could use Balloon man is outused I think. I thought of Stevie balloonie, Lord of the Balloons. Watta ya think?

Hi guys,

I have been doing kids party magic & some balloon moddeling. Simple stuff. Then I got Bad to the balloon DVD's...wow. I sourt of enjoy doing balloon models more than the kids magic. So, now I'm going to start approaching the commercial sector - restaurants shopping malls etc - I recently bit the bullet & approached an owner of a restaurant/cafe type place. He is interested..wow. I suggested I go in & do a 1hr freebie, then we number crunch.

Then last night I got chatting to someone that I hadn't met before, works for a car dealership. I told him what I do, suggested he have me to bring famillies in, they've been thinking about that.

Problem is, I'm not sure about pricing. Can anyone give me some guidance on this ppplease :?:

I would like to get into decorating as well. Whats the best avenue for that, I meen where do I go :?:

Anyone?

Steve

I get asked to do models I can't do, as I'm sure it's the same for all of us, right? At one birthday party everthing was going pretty well, then a young lad came up & asked for an Axolotls. Oh dear take a look at this link http://images.google.co.uk/images?um=1& ... ls&spell=1

Pretty ugly..the lizard not me :lol:  :oops:

Can anyone make this by the way?

What weird requests have you been asked?

Hi guys,

in the forum Board of Index one of the topics is to do with marketing. I don't want to seem pedantic (cause I probably can't speol it  :lol: ) the spelling of buisness is business?  :roll:
