Advertisement Ideas: How To Pay It Forward

When I do consultations with businesses I am often asked how can I pay it forward. I usually answer find a charitable cause that you are passionate about and research programs that you can participate in and then create a marketing strategy that will promote how you are paying it forward.

3: Arrive early so as to prep and make sure all the equipment runs correctly.

I always am grateful for the gig and the opportunity to be part of events. I generally practice before hand as I ask for a script and bios of performers/players so I have something to use to fill down time. You are there for the audience so know who the audience will be.

You have to be quick on your feet as well so have some quips and one liner available to keep the audience entertained.
