I need Professional help
....I am too busy to pass numbers out.

OK, Brian,
Maybe you could have some stickers with your name, business and phone 
number.  That way, when you finish a balloon, you could slap one on there, 
and they have no choice but to see your advertisement.
Another idea, is I recommend that you pick up Bruce Kalvers Book 
"Professional Portfolio for Balloon Artists".  It is absolutley bursting 
with ideas and tips.  I love it, and I think it is worth its weight in gold. 
  You can get the book at Tmyers, I know for certain.

As for your problem of lines getting too large, either ask if there is an 
area in the mall that large crowds are allowed to form, or try to stick to 
the quick one balloon animals and try to take care of your customers rapid 
fire. BUT, always remember that the person you give a balloon to is a 
potential customer just down the road.

I have been Twisting for since June   I am New but I don’t consider myself a 
beginner.  I have recently done just fairs and crowded events mostly 
outdoors.(I Live in Southern California)  I recently  started twisting in a 
mall.  I love it but on Fridays and Saturdays I get a line.  Normally this 
means I am busy (which means more money) but the line blocks the hallway and 
the security people keep tell me (and the manager of the store) not to block 
the hallway.  I ask everyone to come inside the store but it’s not a very 
big store and people still stand in the hallway and if I get real insistent 
many people just walk away.  And hardly anyone reads my sign’s.    Its all a 
manner of time before I am asked to leave and I cannot afford to do that  I 
am in a great position here.



Thank’s for  any ideas
