The Grinch throne is really taking shape! 🎄😠 Started with a plain piece of wood and now it’s padded and upholstered - feeling very official! Loving how that green button adds the perfect Grinch touch. 😉 More updates coming soon, this has been a months-long labor of love! Thanks to Home The Home Depot That's HEART-LINE of my IMAGINATION!

Hey my friends. Usually when I ask about a business question, it's targeted toward my entertainer friends . This question can go to anyone who has a business. Okay! here I go. I'm trying to decide if I should stay sole proprietorship or become LCC or Corporate. I have did some research and watched youtube vids, but I'm asking you what worked best or maybe you can give me advice. I really appreciate your time.

About over a year ago, facebook gave me the opportunity to be a Digital Creator. This is cool. I'm able to look at where some of my followers are. Wow! I have some followers in Nigeria. How cool is that. Thanks everyone for your support and watching watching, reading my content. I'm still trying to figure out what the whole "Send Stars" thing is. So if you feel so inclined, please feel free to send me some. Maybe I will finally find out the mystery.

Today my son is going on his first business training trip with The Home Depot to further his career. He wants to one dat become manager. I'm so proud of him. I really miss those days when we used to work together. I remember the photo with the cake clearly that day. It was his birthday and I stopped over to bring him a cake for everyone to share his birthday. The other man in the phot is Marty. I liked him. He was an awesome manager. He knighted him that day with a box cutter knife. LOL! At Christmas he bought him a heated vest, A heated vest. can you believe that? That's like $150.00. He really liked Gabe and his work ethic. Marty was just like that. I'm so proud of my son.

I'm starting to get bookings in Wisconsin. I can't believe the success I've made in just 11 months from leaving my full time job. Hey supervisors at the college. UP YOURS!!!!!! " My last words to my supervisor.., "If you want to play baseball, you better have a bit." another words... If you're going to make my life difficult, prepare for the outcome." Rumor has it that that dept isn't doing so well. What goes around comes around. Wisdom is from the heart. Old school.. Treat P{people the way you would want to be treated. IT'S MY TIME NOW!

I treated myself to lunch today and a man walked over and extended his hand to shake me. I recognized him. I did a show for him last month for a Lions Club event. Anyway, he was a little emotional and thanked me up and down for picking a woman in the audience to come up and help me out with a magic trick. He told me that she has cancer and that by calling her up, I couldn't have asked for a better person. You just never know what's going on in people's lives. I'm so grateful for my gift.

To my magic peeps out there. This September 2024 I will be launching my website product page. One of the featured products will be my ABraCaBanner. Years ago, these were being sold world wide and was such a great hit. as a matter of fact, my entire product page will be released in September. Please visit and subscribe to my blog to keep up to date with my website product page launch. https://markpresleymagic.com/blog

YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS IT. Here is a little more detail about AbraCaBanner
I created the novelty “Abra ca Banner” on January 13th, 2014

The AbraCabanner is an awesome looking banner that looks professional and it will make your show look even more professional. The banner dimensions are 2 feet wide by 3 feet long. It's the perfect size for the traveling magician.

The idea of being able to customize a birthday banner by inserting the "guest of honor's" name on the banner was mainly to become a keepsake photo for the customer that hired the magician. Your customers will notice that you took the time to add a personal touch to your show.

When you get the AbraCabanner wand to rabbit be prepared to make memories. When the parents see their child being turned into a rabbit you will get instant laughs.
