Make your art sustainable. Build a business you actually enjoy running.
Coaching for entertainers that turns talent into a repeatable business—without burning out your love for performing.
Why a Coach for Performers?
You don’t run a typical business—you sell moments. That means your marketing, pricing, and pipeline can’t look like everyone else’s. I’m Bradley Barefoot—a working mind reader and show developer with a background in UX, SEO, and behavior design. I help performers (magicians, musicians, comedians, speakers, and variety artists) turn their act into a consistent, bookable business.
What We’ll Work On
- Positioning & Offer: Nail your market, promise, and packages.
- Pricing: Build fee structures that protect margins (travel, riders, deposits) and confidently raise rates.
- Booking Pipeline: From inquiry → discovery → proposal → contract → paid deposit.
- Website & SEO: Clear messaging, local SEO, Google Business Profile, booking pages that convert.
- Promo Kit: Photos, one‑sheet/EPK, reels, testimonials—organized for fast sending.
- Outbound & Partnerships: Email scripts, cold outreach, agencies, repeat/referral systems.
- Show Improvements: Tighten your opener/closer, audience management, and walkthroughs that sell the next gig.

Frequently Asked Questions (copy)
Do you only coach magicians?
No. I work with magicians, musicians, comedians, speakers, and variety artists. The systems are performer‑specific—not genre‑specific.
Can we work remotely?
Yes, via Zoom. I also meet in person around Delaware and the Mid‑Atlantic.
Will you sign an NDA?
Absolutely.
Do you take a percentage of my bookings?
No. Coaching is flat‑fee. If we collaborate on agency placements or ad campaigns, we’ll structure that separately.
How is this different from a generic business coach?
I’m an active performer and producer. We’ll build assets that actually book shows—promos, pricing tables, email scripts, SEO—alongside show and audience‑management notes.
What will we do first?
Tighten positioning, clarify your offer, and set prices. Then fix the website/EPK and pipeline. That sequence moves the needle fastest.
market research, develop a plan, and move into your new market and grow your business.
