Here is what many folks are ALREADY saying about Blue and Gold! The Family Entertainer's Complete Guide to Working The Scout Market! "Kyle Peron's book, Blue & Gold, should be on the shelf of every serious family entertainer. There is nothing on the market today that shows how to successfully work this market. Kyle has filled that void with a book that explains everything you need to know in rich detail with real life examples. Plus, the lessons learned in the book can be applied to other markets as well. Highly recommended."--Jim Snack Magician and Motivational Speaker. "Kyle Peron's Blue and Gold handbook leaves no stone unturned for those wishing to enter the Blue & Gold market. Kyle even shares his lead generation and follow up letters in this content-rich, fluff-free book. Even if you've been in the market a while, there's information you need here - Scout's honor!"--Tim Sonefelt. "You covered everything a person would want to know from the business side to what effects play well. You left no stone unturned. This is definitely a book every magician who wants to start or even performs in this market will want to get. This book is what I consider the 'real' magic of show business. As we professionals are well aware, show business is 90% business and 10% show. Your book covers the business side of getting work in the Scout Market 110%!! This is without a doubt, a gold mine for magicians. Thank you so much for sharing it with the magic fraternity."--Paul Romhany.
