A Nimiety of Fungibles

Sep 16, 2016

Recently, while on an online entertainment booking website, I decided to look at a few of the other hypnotist's videos. Here's what I learned: It's hard to tell one from the other.

It's a nimiety of fungibles in stage hypnosis land. You could replace one with any other and not see much difference. 

Every day I hear ads on the radio for home mortgage companies. They all sound the same: "Pay off your home in half the time!" "Interest rates have never been lower!" "Save hundreds of dollars every month!" 

It's like they're all selling exactly the same thing. (Because they are!)

Entertainment shouldn't be that way. Most people can tell the difference between the Beatles and the Rolling Stones; or between George Carlin and Robin Williams; or between Shakespeare and Neil Simon. Why are so many stage hypnotists too lazy to "find their voice"?

Could it be that hypnosis is fairly easy to learn? I've seen advertisements for many stage hypnosis classes and they promise to teach induction techniques, skits, and how to get bookings. I don't believe I've ever seen an ad promising to teach the aspiring stage hypnotist to be a unique entertainer. 

Sort of sad, really. 

So how do you, the prospective client find a unique entertainer? The best way is to view videos. If they all pretty much look the same and one stands out, you may have found an entertainer with a "voice."

And don't expect to get the stand-outs for the cheapest price. When you have something unique, it's usually worth a little more.

An excellent post! Entertainers, like any other service provider, should find their unique selling proposition and flog it until it turns to dust.
