In person appearance fee varies depending on date, time of day, location, number of guests, length of show, standup show or strolling magic, parking, and whether or not it is a holiday.
I bid most gigs anywhere from $400.00 (in my own neighborhood)
up to $900.00, depending on
myriad factors.
Corporate gigs might go as high as $1200.00 to $1500.00.
As to time spent at each gig, it depends on what the client wishes.
If hired to do a standup show to all at once, that is generally 30 to 40 minutes long.
If engaged to perform strolling magic to little groups or couples throughout a party, my rate in L. A. is often $675.00 first hour and $375.00 each additional hour.
Everything is negotiable, however.
Not all of my clients have deep pockets, and everyone deserves excellent entertainment.
A single mom will pay less than a CEO (unless she is both ;-)
. . . whatever does not present a hardship for the client.
​Once we have negotiated appropriate terms, I request a 50% deposit ahead of time to secure the date.
Best, always, all ways,
El Ropo
