"I'm in awe of your candor and mastery of the inner-workings of the magic industry. I think this book will improve the quality of marketed magic and maximize an individual's ability to profit from it. Bravo!" —Joshua Jay

"The magic industry is different than any industry on earth. It took me 10 years to figure it out. This little book contains everything I wish I'd have known from the start. There's a ton of information and strategic advice in the book. If by the end I haven't answered all your questions, the book comes with unlimited email support." —Maxwell Murphy

For 10 years, Maxwell Murphy led Penguin Magic, the largest magic retailer on the Internet. He sold millions of dollars of magic, produced dozens of best-selling products, worked with many of the top inventors in magic, and even lived on top of a magic factory in India. There is no one who knows more about marketing magic than Maxwell Murphy.

Historically, magic inventors haven’'t fared well. Dealers and distributors have had an information advantage, and often times, they’'ve used it. Countless inventors have settled for 1/10th of what they could have earned. This book levels the playing field. Maxwell opens his playbook and his Rolodex, so you can succeed as a magic inventor and help take the industry to the next level.
