The KIDabra Library DVD Set

If you do Library Summer reading shows or you're looking for a reading routine to add to your school show or even your Birthday Party, then join a host of today's top library performers for a romp through some great routines with reading, books and some excellent fun!

Library themes change from year to year, what remains a constant is the desire of libraries to attract tons of kids through their doors over the course of the summer and have them leave with a stack of books. The smart performer helps them achieve that goal on both fronts.

Opening to the strains of an original song "Going to the Library" performed by David Hennig, the Session is hosted by Steve Taylor, whose tips and stories of performing in libraries are worth many times the price of the DVD set. Featuring routines from Barry Mitchell, Ken Scott, Jim Kleefeld, Rick Hubbard, Julian Franklin, Bruce Amato and Chris Frings.

Plus, hidden in plain sight, Rick Hubbard shares the actual finale of his own show that has taken him around the world and yes, into many libraries. Learn "The All Kazoo Band" to perform in your own show. Priceless! (The coolest part is you can do this anywhere, not just in libraries.)

After the performances, go behind the scenes for explanations and then enjoy the bonus features of Steve and longtime library show pro Mark Daniel as they discuss set design ideas for the show and then join a round robin discussion by several of the top pros in the library market including Steve Taylor, Julian Franklin, Tim Sonefelt, and led by Ken Scott as they talk about the ins and outs of this unique venue.

Look Twice Advertising

by Julian Franklin

(C) 2007
NEW! Creative Advertising (Print Lecture Notes and Audio CD of live KIDabra Lecture)

The audio CD runs about an hour and ten minutes. It was presented live at KIDabra 2007 on Marketing Day. I am a firm believer that you should attend live events. There is a power in live events that simply can't be replicated through your car's CD system speakers. However, I also know that circumstances don't always allow us to attend every meeting, conference, convention, workshop, and lecture that we would like and I am a BIG fan of audio programs as a supplimental method of learning and retaining information.

The Lecture notes that accompany this lecture are over 60 pages long. Each 8.5" X 11" page is full color, single spaced, with real margins (not the 1.5" margins some use to bulk up their page count). Several of the pages are printed on specialty paper because that is one of the concepts covered in the program. I wanted you to be able to see and even FEEL the exact texture I was writing and talking about. There are lots of full-color photos throughout the book to display creative advertising methods from brilliant minds like Dan Kennedy, Steve Taylor, Greg Zelnik, and a few of my own as well.

  • There are five problems with traditional advertising, all of which are analyzed, addressed, and overcome using Creative Advertising.
  • Learn what makes an ad effective.
  • Find out exactly how to analyze the effectiveness of a Creative Advertising campaign.
  • Learn the eight reasons why Creative Advertising is more effective than traditional advertising.
  • Learn formulas for calculating the return rate you need in order to justify any increased cost the Creative Advertising might incurr.
  • More importantly, learn to develop a Creative Advertising campaign that costs the same as (or evven LESS THAN) a more traditional campaign.

Filled with loads of case studies, real world examples, and proven campaigns, this book is worth it's weight in gold.

 Ben Franklin's "The Way to Wealth"
The Way to Wealth by Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin has become synonamous with prudent and steady accumulation of wealth.  Franklin regularly preached (and practiced) systematic savings and modest spending as a sure way to dramatically increase wealth over the long term.

His quotes and sayings on money and investment are now as commonplace as they are true.  Millions of people around the world have accumulated great fortunes from following the advice given by Franklin.  This is one of his more widely touted works and it can be yours for a price that would make Ben proud!

KIDabra Logo

The Julian Franklin KIDabra Lectures. I am a big believer in the value of audio programs, but I am also the first to admit that listening to CDs (or MP3s, or cassettes, or whatever) has a very slim value compared to actually attending a live event. We are professional performers and I think we will all agree that our audiences would be ripped off if they had to watch a video of our show instead of attending a live performance. When it comes to educational and motivational programs this is even more true.

However, the reality is that sometimes we simply can't attend. Maybe we didn't even know about the event when it first happened! If that's the case, then here is your chance to retroactively attend (or hopefully  re-live) the original presentation of these live lectures delivered at the KIDabra conference since 2004.

Each lecture can be purchased individually, or you can buy the set of four, in a collector sleeve at a phenomenal discount.
Retail value of $95, pay just $74 (you save almost 25% and no travel or hotel costs!!)

NEW! The So-Called Guru
In April of 2007 Julian Franklin and several of his friends decided to organize an elaborate April Fool's Day Hoax. It all started with a full-page ad in a magic trade journal, and escalated to a "retaliation" ad (also full-page, in the same journal) then expanded into web sites, "hi-jacked" PDF files, recorded phone calls that were burned to CD, and lectures that were supposedly recorded illegally and then distributed across the country.

It was a pretty involved way to let people know about the Business Building Workshop, but it seemed to have worked on some level (though not nearly as effectively as everyone involved had hoped). If you have ever considered attending the annual workshop held in Houston each January, but aren't sure if it's for you, here's your chance to find out. It's also an education in creative marketing just to see the work that went into this project!

We've compiled all the information from this campaing into a single package. You get almost 3 solid hours of information on audio CDs that includes actual recordings made at the 2007 Business Building Workshop as well as interviews of some of the attendees, phone calls, and the disguised voice of the narrator who acted as the fall-guy for the whole thing. It is hilarious at times, but always informative.

The CDs are bound in a collector case that includes actual copies of the full-page ads that ran (the original ad on the front cover, the "response" ad on the back) so you can experience the whole thing. You also get the URL to the web site where you can go to read the "blog" that was created in response to the controversy as well as the link to down load the "pirated" PDF file that circulated.

All this for less than dinner and a movie!

Creating

Significant
Programs


Crayon Book
Creating Educationally Significant Programs

In this program (which includes 2 audio CDs and a printed manual) you’ll learn:
  • The difference between “educational” and “educationally significant” (subtle in syntax, MAJOR in educational impact and fee structure!)
  • Why some performers charge three times as much and have a waiting list and others can’t get work to pay the bills (it ISN’T necessarily their performance skills or their marketing!  Hint: it has to do with the point above)
  • How you can increase your value to the schools and increase your fee accordingly
  • Practical examples of real performance pieces that work and which ones you should avoid like the plague!
  • The advice that 90% of the “experts” are shovel feeding you and you should NOT follow!

Get the real work right here, from someone who doesn’t talk from the sidelines.  Julian performs educational programs for schools 100-120 school days per year (at up 5 shows per day, that usually equates to 350+ paid school performances each year), plus another 100 or so educational library shows during the summer.  In this program he tips one of his biggest, most lucrative secrets: The Secret of Educational Significance.

Viral Marketing: A Systematic Way to Implement a Word of Mouth Campaign

This marketing program includes 6 CDs and a printed guidebook specifically created for performers who are interested in radically changing the way they market themselves.  We know word of mouth is the most powerful form of marketing (as well as being the cheapest), but until now, there simply wasn't a systematic way to CONTROL what other people said about us and how often they said it.

Now all that has changed.

This program takes Word of Mouth to a whole new level.  Learn to create a buying frenzy for your services that has people frantic to hire you and thus much less price sensitive.

PRICE : $149.00
