Going Deeper… What Comes After Skyscraper?

If you’ve enjoyed what you’ve read so far, then we know you’ll LOVE the offer we’ve prepared for you below, that will give you enough memorized deck content to last a LIFETIME, or a least one year 😉

Introducing…

The Most Innovative, Exclusive, and Unique Club in ALL of Magic—at HALF the price.

ONE TIME ‘CELEBRATION’ OFFER: Get 1 YEAR of our ‘Inner Circle’ at more than 50% off…

…(and claim 5 incredible FREE bonuses)

 

As a member of our brand new Inner Circle, you’ll get EVERYTHING.

Not only will we lovingly guide you step by step into a new way of thinking but also…

Every Monday, we give you an exclusive piece of audio training, often featuring the world’s best magicians—and covering topics we rarely see anyone else in magic talk about on this level.

Every Wednesday, we send you an original effect straight from our ‘creative lab.’

(many of these effects will come from famous magicians such as Steven Bridges, Pigcake, Danny Goldsmith and more…)

And every Friday, we send you a ‘Thinking Differently Friday’ email.

The ‘Thinking Differently’ email will highlight a dazzling insight we picked up during our studies during the week.

It might be something we learned from $2000-a-ticket value marketing seminars, something we picked up from the autobiography of a world leader…

…or perhaps even something one of our own ‘in-house’ Inner Circle members sent in!

We take that insight and dissect it—then show you how you can use it to improve the power of your magic.

More than just the insights, over time you’ll learn our formula for applying this methodology to everything you do—which is perhaps even more valuable!

Now, as a result of all this, we made the Inner Circle EXTREMELY difficult to get into.

You can’t even ‘purchase’ a membership without jumping through some serious hoops, or first buying a different product to ‘qualify’ you!

In fact, most members need to fill out an application form before we even give them the chance to enter.

However, since you’re willing to pay for an entire year of our membership, we trust that you qualify to join our inner circle.

Usually, membership is $9.95 a month. That’s $119.40 a year.

You’re getting over 58% off…

…a whole year for just $49! 

(save $70!)

But it gets even better…

Upon subscribing, you’ll get instant access to a set of VERY valuable ‘perks’ that even our current Inner Circle members don’t have yet…

When you subscribe, you’ll also get…

BONUS ONE: ‘The Daily Magician Library’ 

When you purchase one year of Inner Circle with The Daily Magician you’ll instantly unlock 26 original effects, 21 pieces of audio training, 3 audiobooks, and 12 thinking differently essays.

Including…

A three-part ‘Weighing the Cards’ masterclass.

In this iconic effect, your spectator cuts the deck ANYWHERE, and you can instantly tell them how many cards they’re holding.

Over these 3 classes, we’ll show you…

* The ‘classic’ method for this effect, and why we have a problem with it

* How to perform ‘Weighing the Cards’ with a deck the audience THINKS they shuffled

* How to perform ‘Weighing the Cards’ after they really DO shuffle the deck (in fact, this method would even work with a borrowed deck!)

You’ll also get…

* A method for ‘categorizing’ playing cards that is invisible to your audience but provides you with a plethora of devious methods

* How to find any FREELY selected card after your spectators each shuffle half the deck and you shuffle their shuffled halves together (no false shuffles involved, each shuffle is legitimate!)

* The ‘lovechild’ of Juan Tamariz and Paul Curry I’m calling ‘Totally Out of This World’ that is, frankly, slightly crazy but very fun to play with

* Benji’s handling of Juan’s ‘Neither Blind Nor Stupid’ that looks ‘invisible’ to laymen and magicians alike

* One of the most powerful effects in magic (that’s also one of the easiest!)

* The simple little secret technique used by the best-memorized deck performers that instantly ‘doubles’ the reach of this effect (so simple yet so many magicians overlook it)

* How to perform this effect when you don’t know the spectator’s name (using the Simpsons, of all things)

* A fun effect that is perhaps the ONE exception to Darwin Ortiz’ rule on never creating conflict between spectators in magic

And one of our favorite effects—imagine this…

The spectator freely cuts the deck as many times as they like.

They then cut the deck and turn it face up on ANY card (no crimps or gimmicks of any kind).

Using the identity of the card they cut to, you count/spell to a random card—which turns out to be the exact MATE of their card.

The cards are immediately examinable.

There’s zero force included.

This works with ANY card in the deck.

All of the above is immediately available to you as an Inner Circle member.

But that’s just what’s ‘already there.’

See, every week going forward, we’ll send you new effects, training, and exclusive audio tapes with the same premium quality as what’s described above!

BONUS TWO: Module One of our acclaimed ‘Skyscraper Method’—learn how to memorize a deck in record time using the ‘Babylon Secret.’

This bonus is essential as many of our ideas are based on the memorized deck.

But don’t worry if you haven’t ‘dabbled’ in that yet.

We filmed Jacob using our method to memorize an entire deck—LIVE on camera.

(and trust us when we say that he was MASSIVELY nervous about the idea at first)

Over the course of this powerful and extremely detailed training video—exactly 2 hours and 51 minutes in runtime—you’ll learn…

How to memorize any stack you want in 20 minutes or less.

* How to make every effect you currently perform…instantly stronger!

* The 3 questions most memorized deck beginners ask that are not only WRONG but also downright dangerous (if you really want to ‘get’ this stuff)

* The ‘toothpaste’ advantage to working with a memorized deck (that allows you to improve your magic faster AND easier than regular card magic)

* An embarrassing story from our ‘early days’ in magic (nothing about the memorized deck here, but I suspect you’ll find it amusing)

* The ‘blue ocean’ secret to standing out in card magic

* How to ‘tap into’ the chemical wiring of your brain to ensure you never forget the stack (your brain is already ‘primed’ to do this, believe it or not!)

* The stack I personally recommend (and why this advice is stupid anyway)

* The best memorized deck book I’ve ever read (scratch that—this is one of the best BOOKS I’ve ever read, period.)

* The strange similarity between the memorized deck and skyscrapers

The ONE thing most people get wrong when trying to memorize a deck

* The ‘Babylon Secret’ (hands down the easiest and best way to memorize a deck)

* One of the hardest parts about memorizing any deck (but don’t worry…we already did this part for you!)

* Why Rafael Nadal’s ‘butt scratch’ and Derren Brown’s ‘furry raccoon’ is essential to our memorization method.

* A mind-bogglingly stupid comment I saw featured on a popular memory trainer product (I won’t name names, but you’ve undoubtedly heard of it)

* What this process looks like in action (watch as Jacob memorizes a deck LIVE on camera—something I’ve never seen other memory trainer products do…)

* The ‘happy birthday’ principle (a tip shared with me that changed the way I look at the memorized deck)

BONUS THREE: The complete ‘Benji’s Billion-Dollar Brainstorms’ collection

This is a collection of audio training that we’re planning to release to our Inner Circle over the next 12 months.

Right now, none of them are available to current members—and they’ll have to wait for months to get them all.

But if you grab this deal—we’ll know you’ll be around for at least that long, so we’ll happily give you the tapes INSTANTLY.

Here’s what’s inside the 12 tapes…

Audio Tape #1 – how to make practicing magic as easy as falling out of bed

This one is all about how you can literally ‘engineer’ your house to make practicing magic as easy as falling out of bed (literally!)

I also discuss:

* How to build habits that stick (this is a big deal for card magicians)

* The Oscar Wilde quote that perfectly illustrates the WRONG way to practice (minute 5:37)

* ‘Environment engineering’ and how you can profit from it.

Audio Tape #2 – Christopher Nolan’s secret to creating engaging magic performances

In this audio training, we reveal the biggest lesson magicians can learn from Christopher Nolan’s incredible film, Tenet.

I also discuss…

* How to make your audience ‘lean in’ during your performance (a tip Nolan executes nearly every single time he starts his films) minute 0:54

* How to end your routines to ensure the trick lives on forever in the mind of your spectator (a tip I picked up from Asi Wind that Nolan also uses to perfection)

* The power of ‘crossroads’ in your effects

Audio Tape #3 – Why don’t more magicians do this? In this audio training, Benji talks about the one thing that almost all other ‘art’ forms study—but we rarely see magicians do.

(one exception is the great Rene Lavand.)

Doing this can massively increase the strength of your routines.

We also discuss…

* The most basic, fundamental definition of what magic really IS that we can think of (whether it’s a 90-minute stage act or a simple color change, this definition will help you understand the common ties in ALL magic) minute 0:57

* The lesson magicians can pick up by observing the habits of other creative artists— including filmmakers, writers, and theater students (this sounds so obvious, but I see hardly anyone doing it)

* Why magicians should obsess LESS about their technical skill or ‘craft’—and what they should focus on instead (you can practice the pass 1000 times a day, but if you don’t do this, you’ll never reach your true potential)

* The top 3 books we recommend magicians read to get an invaluable education in this topic

Audio Tape #4 – how to grab your audience’s attention and never let it go

In this audio training, we share how to ‘grab’ your audience’s attention from the moment you start your performance.

I also discuss:

* Benji and Jacob’s nerdy childhood hobby that is paying off in spades now

* The ‘Inception’ technique to hooking your audience

* Why performing your best material during the middle of your show can be a BAD idea

* How we used this technique ‘on you’ during the audio training (minute 6:54)

* Why even magicians performing for paying audiences should treat their routines like they’re performing strolling magic (this mindset shift is a great way to really respect your audience)

Audiotape #5 – How to make any training resource at least 10X more valuable…

This short but very powerful idea that can hugely ‘amp up’ how much value you get out of your magic books, videos and other assorted training products…

I also discuss:

* The origin of this incredible concept (believe it or not, it WASN’T a magician that taught me this)

* Why you have to cut yourself zero slack while doing this (it’s not easy, but will most definitely pay off)

* Why this 3 minute audio clip can give you as much value as reading 90 book (minute 2:33)

Audio Tape #6 – How to make learning magic just as fun (if not MORE fun) than performing it

When we interviewed Danny Goldsmith for the ‘Of Sleights and Men’ podcast, he said something really interesting that we wanted to ‘zoom in on’ for my Inner Circle members.

We think you’ll find this interesting too…

We also discuss:

* The one thing magicians take for granted (that is actually, when you think about it, the whole POINT of magic!)

* Why magic is one of the final frontiers of knowledge (minute 1:51)

* How to reframe the way you look at magic to make learning it just as fun (if not MORE fun) than performing it

* 2 pieces of magic that blew me away by how clever the method was (one of these you may not be able to get your hands on, but feel free to track down the other)

Audio Tape #7 – The magician Benji believes is the ‘Marlo of Magic Theory’

In this Inner Circle training, Benji talks about the two emotions you NEVER want your audience to feel.

We also discuss:

* Two things you never want to do when performing magic (even if you successfully avoid one of these, the other one can scupper you—you need BOTH)

* How to navigate the dangerous line between mystery and confusion in your performances (using the Out Of This World routine as an example

* The magician I believe is the ‘Marlo of Magic Theory’

* Exactly how long your routine should be (the answer is both very vague and VERY precise) minute 5:26

Audio Tape #8 – The ‘Go Ye No Further’ Warning to All Magicians Obsessed With Playing Cards

Benji’s unfiltered opinion on ‘premium’ playing cards…

We get a lot of people asking me what my favorite brand of playing cards is.

We decided to answer that question once and for all in this audio training.

We also discuss…

* Why Benji’s answer offends most magicians (BUT should really change their magic careers forever.)

* Why we’d always take a worn, stained, 20 year old deck, only ever used for messy poker games over Virtuous any day of the week (any why you should too!)

* Why the question ‘you’re the magic guy right’ and theory 11 monarchs should NEVER go together (minute 4:25)

Audio Tape #9 – Why Magic is the ULTIMATE hobby– and How to Always Feel Proud of Your Passion!

In this audio training, we talk about why magic is one of the most interesting and ‘equal’ hobbies out there, and ways we can take advantage of that.

We also discuss…

* Why we respect top level magicians far more than NBA stars (minute 5:50)

* The secret of a great golf swing— taught by a one legged golfer (and what the **** it has to do with magic)

* Why Magic is and always will be ‘the great equalizer’ of ALL hobbies.

Audio Tape #10 – My Ultimate List of the Best Magicians of Our Time and What Benji Learned From Each of Them.

In this audio training we reveal (for the first time) my list of favorite magicians.

This isn’t a ‘most skilled’ or ‘best xyz’ list.

This is purely my FAVORITE magicians, and why.

We also discuss:

* Why the ‘lore’ around Juan Tamariz makes him a no-brainer for any top magician list.

* Which came first: Britain’s Got Talent or America’s got Talent? (and why it matters so much) (minute 5:20)

* Why it’s not a sin to try and perform like Dani Daoritz (even though you’ll never succeed.)

Audio Tape #11 – The ‘Ice Cream Lover’ Secret to Practicing Sleight of Hand: 

In this audio training, we explain why we think most time spent practicing palming, false shuffles, the pass, and other sleight of hand is wasted time.

We also discuss…

* Why it’s good to taste as many ice creams as you can- but eventually settle for chocolate (or strawberry)

* How the phrase ‘start wide go narrow’ can save you over 20 years of wasted practice! (minute 4:40)

* The one ‘exception to the rule’ almost all top magicians know, but don’t really talk about.

Audio Tape #12 – ‘The Secret Sauce’ to Honing Any Magic Performance– Whatever Your Skill Level

In this audio training we share with you the ‘secret sauce’ to honing and refining every aspect of your performances and routines to the highest possible standard.

We also discuss…

* The Marketing Truism that almost all magicians CHOOSE to forget, but always ends up biting them in the ***. (minute 0.15)

* The Facebook ad secret to a performance that will ‘get’ your audience every time!

* Why letting your audience decide which effects you perform is ALWAYS the best option.

BONUS FOUR: Lifetime access to the ‘Daily Magician Tapes’… 

We’ve been lucky enough to sit down with and interview some of the most interesting magicians in the world.

Including Roberto Giobbi, Danny Goldsmith, Andi Gladwin, Denis Behr, Pit Hartling and more…

Every time we’ve interviewed these magicians we’ve asked them for a short exclusive interview after the main podcast.

These 10+ exclusive interviews have become ‘The Daily Magician’ Tapes.

When you secure your yearly deal, we’ll give you INSTANT access to them.

And just to give you a taste of all the value you’ll be getting…

In Danny Goldsmith’s exclusive segment, we discuss:

* The big problem Danny sees with most coin magic training, including ‘classics’ like Bobo (and the smart way to master coin magic instead)

* An essay written by Eric Jones that Danny recommends every magician read

* The ONE thing it’s crucially important to understand from the start (if you don’t do this, you’re causing yourself a lot of ‘clean up’ work later down the line)

* Magicians that Danny is inspired by

* The one simple yet profound concept that let Eric Mead FRY Danny with an ‘easy’ coin vanish and the single sentence he uttered afterward that changed Danny’s entire performing style (most magicians skim over this, but the real pros come back to it time after time)

* Why Slydini is such a master magician

* How to invoke ‘playful wonder’ into your performances

* A ‘behind the scenes’ story about Mario Lopez’ infamous Fool Us moment where he made his nipple vanish

* The difference between Spanish magic and American magic (and why the Spanish are so darned good)

* Why Danny doesn’t think he’ll make an appearance on Penn and Teller: Fool Us

* The problem with most coin ‘flurry’ routines (and why Danny doesn’t like them)

* How Danny uses Marvel movies as a metaphor for the way he approaches magic (this blew my mind)

In Roberto Giobbi’s exclusive segment, we discuss:

* What the author of Card College has to say on ‘The Royal Road to Card Magic’ (his insights will probably change the way you look at both books)

* A misunderstood question that became one the GREATEST answers we’ve ever been given

* What Giobbi has learned from his library of over 3,500 titles in 17 languages and 30 YARDS of magazines.

* Why Card College is both the ‘primary school’ and ‘high school’ of magic learning.

* Why not knowing how to describe your little finger can make it very hard to perform a good pinky count (and how Card College fixes this)

In Andi Gladwin’s exclusive segment, we discuss: 

* Andi’s advice on ‘work/life balance’ as a magician (and why he’s the wrong person to ask for advice on this topic!

* A $5000 problem that woke Andi up in the middle of the night (and how he ‘flipped’ the situation on its head within minutes)

* How Andi takes his mind off of running a magic company (the answer will make you laugh, then you’ll realise how fitting it is)

* The real reason Andi physically can’t stop working on magic (if you have this attitude too, you’re doing it right)

* Our most hard-won discoveries on staying motivated to practice magic (and why ‘motivation’ itself is the WRONG thing to focus on)

* How to do 34 habits every single day—without EVER missing a day (this is Benji’s ‘secret weapon’)

BONUS FIVE: ‘The Daily Magician Backstage Pass
