Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
While this book is aimed at a fairly small audience, those entertainers seeking work in the educational marketplace will be more than appreciative of the solid material packed into this slim, one-of-a-kind volume. Heflick, a member of "The Dave and Cindy Duo," is refreshingly direct, offering a true insider's point of view. Discussions include educators' expectations, the development of suitable programs, promotional materials, fees, presentation techniques, and more. Chapters are succinct, ending with practical summaries. Particularly useful are the samples of confirmation letters, invoices, marketing flyers, and study guides. There is a special section with descriptions of theme programs geared to instrumentalists, actors, dancers, singers, and speakers. School administrators and parent-teacher committees may find this guide useful in assessing the merits of potential performers and planning programs. For circulating libraries with special educational and performing resources.?Carol J. Binkowski, Bloomfield, N.J.

The book delivers on it's title,
This review is from: How to Make Money Performing in Schools: The Definitive Guide to Developing, Marketing, and Presenting School Assembly Programs (Paperback)
If you have ever wanted to work in schools, or do already, but you want to work more, then this book is for you. I am a professional entertainer and I got a lot of useful knowledge out of it that I have been able to apply in the field. I have personally recommended this book to countless friends already.
