What does a Houston Magician know about party planning?…plenty!
As a professional entertainer performing on deluxe cruise ships, casinos and high-profile company dinners and events, Houston comedy magician Harry Maurer knows what makes dinners and parties successful. He has been involved in “over the top” parties (including one held for Broadway Choreographer Bob Fosse at Tavern on the Green in New York City and one for First Lady Barbara Bush where he floated someone in mid-air!) — but he has also experienced dinner parties that could have been wonderful, but tiny little things that should have been addressed early on made the party fall flat.
Based on his experiences, Houston’s premier Comedy Magician Harry Maurer has produced a simple 2 page tip sheet entitled “7 Keys to a Successful Event” filled with simple things you can do that are often overlooked by even the most experienced event planners to make your party run smoothly and make your event more successful.
It is not uncommon for an Executive Assistant or a committee of employees to plan the company’s Holiday party, so these tips are intentionally designed to help anyone who is planning an event make it spectacular.
It sounds like fun, but there is a lot more involved in creating a successful dinner or party than selecting the venue, picking out the food and finding a DJ. This guide is not just for professional event and party planners, but for anyone in your company who is in charge of making the arrangements for a company party, a client dinner or a social event.
“What is so remarkable about this simple guide”, Harry says, “is that none of the suggestions I make cost money, and some of the tips can even prevent disasters from occurring!”
Did you know that one of the biggest employee complaints is that the awards presentation dragged on and the fun an enthusiasm that had developed up to that point dropped markedly?
Award presentations can run way too long! Unless you are the one receiving the award, the awards presentation part of the event really isn’t that interesting!
There are simple ways to correct that and make the presentations run smoothly in a way that keeps everyone’s interest and keeps the party on track and running on time!
Other tips include things you should look for at the venue BEFORE the party starts. Things you can easily fix to make it enjoyable for everyone, and ways to address situations that can arise that would otherwise spoil your evening.
You can download Harry Maurer’s tip sheet “7 Keys to a Successful Event” from his website www.events.hmmagic.com and use these tips now to prepare for your upcoming company party so that you can be assured that your dinner runs smoothly, your guests are comfortable and interacting and your event is fun, memorable and does not run overtime.
