“Discover How This Entertaining, Fun And Unforgettable Program Makes Your Next Event Amazingly Successful … And Makes You Look Great – Guaranteed!”

 “The program was unique and memorable

and without a doubt the best entertainment we have ever had

at a chamber annual banquet.”

Making your event memorable is a difficult task. You want it to be fun and extra special – all while staying within a budget.

 

 

What Really Makes An Event Unforgettable?

 

 

            Quality entertainment that gets everyone involved and keeps them laughing is one of the major keys to making your event dynamic and impressive.

 

            But there are so many options to choose from.  Do you hire a band?  A disc jockey?  A piano player?  A speaker?  It’s frustrating to try and figure something that will please everyone, isn’t it?

Who Else Wants To Get Outstanding Results Like These?

 

 

“It was truly an honor to have an entertainer of your caliber at the Illinois Licensed Beverage Association Convention.  You are the consummate performer, combining terrific magic tricks with a presentation that not only mesmerizes the audience, but also involves individual members of the audience in every aspect of the show.  From a staff perspective, I truly enjoyed working with you.  You required very little of my time in your preparation, yet you quickly grasped the tenor of our association and its members and incorporated this into your show so it appeared the show was specifically designed for the audience.  Your show rivals any show I’ve attended in Las Vegas.  We are very fortunate to have you in Illinois.  I look forward to working with you in the future.  Please feel free to give my name as a reference to prospective clientele.  Thank you again for putting on a terrific show.”

Steve Riedl, Executive Director,

Illinois Licensed Beverage Association

 

“Consensus was unanimous YOU WERE GREAT!!!!!  Everyone I talked to after the show was in complete amazement of your magic act and in complete agreement that your stage personality was second to none.  Working with you prior to the event was also a pleasure, you were attentive to all of our details and executed your program in complete detail to our specs.  I especially liked how you used the pre-show questionnaire to get a pulse of our company and our employees.  If anyone ever asks me whom I’d pick as and entertainer at a company function the answer would be simple, CHRIS EGELSTON.”

Tim Leake

Pepsi-Cola Bottling Company

           

“I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the EXCELLENT performance … Your show was critical to a very successful event.  I can assure you that all comments relayed back to me should leave you nothing less than proud of your performance.  You provided a mix of magic, comedy and entertainment that was truly enjoyed by the people attending this event.  Your rapport with an audience of this size was tremendous … Please do not hesitate to use me for a recommendation to potential customers.  I would be glad to share with them the delightful atmosphere you established for this very special event.”

K.L. Harber, District Manager

GTE North Incorporated

 

“You did a wonderful job getting our meeting off on the right foot at our ‘Welcome Reception’ and certainly kept the people entertained and involved.  You certainly have a terrific way of getting the audience actively involved.  Thanks again for a wonderful show and best of luck with your future endeavors.”

John L. Lengerman, President and CEO

Catholic Fraternal Life

 

“How’d he do that?!?  That was the most frequently heard question at our Construction Products Council Holiday Party, during dinner following your strolling performance and most certainly when everyone said their good-byes following your After Dinner Show.  You were a hit and one of the most enjoyable entertainers many of our members told me they had seen for some time.  In fact, a week later, I’m still asked about some of your illusions; and how did you do it?  We would highly recommend you to others, and appreciate a truly enjoyable evening.”

Matt Ford

Construction Products Council

 

“The entertainment was very clean, wholesome entertainment.  The presentation was very professional and extremely entertaining.  I particularly like how you incorporated humor into the act.  Several times everyone thought a trick had gone wrong, only to be amazed when it turned out right.  The use of several members of the audience made it particularly enjoyable for everyone.  We had numerous calls and walk-ins after the meeting all commenting on how good our speaker was and how much they had enjoyed the whole evening.”

Joe Tison, Chairman of the Board

 Saline County Soil and Water Conservation District

 

“You have no idea how appropriate and humorous the group thought your discussion was with our President and CEO.  Yet it was all in good fun.  You questioned me before the show if people would understand jokes about ‘The Elevator Man’ and as you saw, those were the comments that had the best reaction from the group.  The young lady you pulled on the stage and asked if she had danced like that for the ‘elevator man’ commented to me the next week that everyone has been asking her if she had really done that.  The audience participation was wonderful and appeared very natural at the time, although a few people guessed that I had fed you some information before the show.  Thank you for your clean and tailored show.”

Carolyn Ledford, Director of Human Resources

Evenglow Lodge

 

“Thank you so much for adding a special touch to our client appreciation dinner.  Everyone really enjoyed your program and we heard a lot of positive comments.  We appreciated your ability to relate well with our audience, and to use information related to our industry.  You did a good job making people from the audience feel comfortable when they were used in one of your tricks.  We want our customers to leave the dinner feeling they are special.  Your program helped to accomplish this!”

 Michael S. Stewart

 Edward Jones, Inc.

 

“Our Board of Directors, staff and guests had nothing but praise for your performance.  The joy and laughter you brought to them will forever be etched in their memories.  I especially want to thank  you for being flexible enough, and without notice, to fit our little joke about the cow in your act.  It all appeared so natural and it really surprised Mr. Bell.”

Ron Lantrip, President

SIU Credit Union

 

“Your use of showmanship, magic and humor kept the audience entertained and intrigued!  Your use of audience participation added just the right touch of local color.  It was indeed easy and pleasant to work with your organization in planning this occasion.  The pre-show questionnaire that you sent to us prior to your presentation was very helpful in customizing the program for our banquet.  The program was unique and memorable and without a doubt the best entertainment we have ever had at a chamber annual banquet.”

            Sure, there are a lot of good entertainers out there, BUT none of them even come close to offering such total entertainment packages.  Check it out for yourself!

 

•1.    Clean Comedy.  You’ll be thrilled as you hear your guests laugh and see all the smiles during this very funny and clean program.  The number one worry event planners have about entertainers and speakers is the chance of offending a member of their audience with bad language or inappropriate humor.  I guarantee you a clean program!

•5.    I’ll Take Away All Of Your Worries About Booking Entertainment.  I guarantee not to surprise you with last minute demands like too many other performers.  You’ll know well in advance everything I need to make your program the best ever and it’s rarely much more than a performance area, small table and a couple of chairs.  I can provide my own “state of the art” sound system if you don’t have one.  I’ll even talk to the event facility director to arrange these details personally so you don’t have to worry about it at all.

 

•6.    You Get The Right Program For Your Audience And Event.  There’s no such thing as “one size fits all” entertainment.  Your event is unique and special.  I will create specific entertainment options for you to choose from that fit your event and budget.  These may include an after-dinner stage show, strolling entertainment, or other options.  I’ve customized programs for banquets, conventions, sales meetings, trade shows, private parties and other events.     

 

•7.    You Get A 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.  If you are not satisfied that the program made your event amazingly fun and successful, you get the show for free.  No other entertainer offers a guarantee this strong!  But the truth is, in over 27 years and 4,557 programs, no one has ever asked for their money back.  In fact, many of them use me year after year and recommend me to others.  If I’m not 100% confident I can deliver great results for you, I won’t accept your bookingI also guarantee you will be thanked, get applause, and be a hero for putting on one of the best events ever.
