“You had the entire audience engaged and laughing.”
Dear Zach:
I wanted to drop you a note and thank you for a wonderful evening of magic and humor. Saturday evening’s event was the kick-off of our capital campaign and your presence at the event made it all the more special. I have received numerous compliments from our parents, alumni, and faculty who attended the event regarding your performance. Not only was your magic phenomenal but you did a great job as our auctioneer. You had the entire audience engaged and laughing. I hope that you’ll consider returning to Miami Country Day again in the future to perform at another one of our events. You’re the BEST!
Regards,

“You added value to our event.”
Dear Zach:
Thank you for making our 2002 Toastmasters International District 33 Fall Conference one of the most memorable yet.
Our theme was ‘Harvest The Magic,’ so it seemed appropriate to have a magician reinforce our message. However, you did more than blend in with our theme. You added value to our event, you were flexible, and you did a great job of accommodating our last minute changes.
I received fantastic and positive comments about your strolling sleight-of-hand magic as well as your stage show for weeks after the event.
You provided us with a unique and special performance that set this conference apart from all others.
I look forward to working with you again in the future.
Sincerely,
Bruce Louie, DTM
Toastmasters International District 33 Governor

“I can honestly say that Mr. Waldman’s skills both as a magician and a teacher are unparalleled.”
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter serves as a professional and personal reference for Zach Waldman, with whom I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with for the last two years.
As an employer, I can honestly say that Mr. Waldman’s skills both as a magician and a teacher are unparalleled. Not only is Zach punctual, honest, enthusiastic and responsible, but he also possesses a unique ability to transmit our MatheMagic curriculum to kinds in a tremendously fun and exciting way.
Kids are quickly drawn to Zach’s fantastic sense of humor and great personality which naturally makes them much more receptive to the entire learning process. Using the enchanting tool of magic, he easily captivates his audiences and has them hanging by his every word. In addition, Zach has an innate ability as a teacher to help boost student’s logic, problem solving, and lateral thinking skills by encouraging them to think “outside the box.”
On the interpersonal side, since I’ve known Zach, he has always been a kind, honest, and caring friend. With the utmost of sincerity, I personally recommend Zach Waldman to you not only as a professional, but also as an exceptional human being. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.
Sincerely,

“It was a great icebreaker!”
Dear Zach:
We thoroughly enjoyed your performance during cocktail hour for our event this week! You provided a way for people who did not know each other very well laugh and talk with one another; it was a great icebreaker!
Our employees from out of town are still telling me how much they enjoyed your magic and your great personality.
We will certainly consider you any time we have a corporate event.
Sincerely,

“Kept us oohing and ahhing, and kept us laughing…Loudly.”
Dear Zach,
Thanks so much for entertaining at the holiday luncheon for our office staff. I’ll admit I was a bit concerned that our little party of seven in a private restaurant room might be too “intimate” for a magic show, but it was a ball! Your skill and fantastic presentation kept us guessing “how did he do that,” kept us oohing and ahhing, and kept us laughing. Loudly. We sure will be recommending you to friends, and I look forward to the next opportunity to enjoy your magic.
Best Regards,
Dr. Jeffrey M. Sage

“Thanks for helping BusinessWeek make a great impression.”
Dear Zach,
My image of magic was shattered the night you entertained our BusinessWeek clients. I had no idea how powerful and sophisticated intimate sleight of hand could be.
Booking you added a great touch to our party, and our customers are still talking about how much you added to the “magic” of the evening. Not only did you add a unique, surprise element to the party, but you were also great to work with. From our first contact to the end of the party, you were a consummate professional.
Thanks for helping BusinessWeek make a great impression. Our Clients are already asking about next year!
Best Regards,

“We have had excellent response from clients.”
Mr. Waldman anticipated our needs and represented us in an excellent manner with both current and future clients. His performance as a magician was excellent. More impressive however was that he was able to convey to every client, in a professional manner, that we were the company sponsoring his performance.”
We have had excellent response from clients and would recommend Mr. Waldman’s services without hesitation.

“All we had to do was tell you where we needed help and you made a crowd appear.”
Dear Zach,
Thank you for performing at The Koreatown Plaza.
From our first contact with you to the end of our event, you were a pleasure to do business with. It made hiring you a delight.
Our event was intended to increase foot traffic throughout the mall. Although we had a lot of things happening, there were certain “dead spots” that weren’t being reached by the amusements. However, your ability to gather and entertain an audience wherever we sent you solved the problem. All we had to do was tell you where we needed help and you made a crowd appear. I watched a section of the mall go from a ghost town to bustling with customers. It was like magic!
Sincerely,
Mark Choi

“You surpassed all our expectations.”

I would like to thank you again for traveling to our winery recently to do a show for the staff. Everyone really had a great time. You are a very talented comedian, magician, and performer.

You surpassed all our expectations and made us very happy!
I hope we have the opportunity to see you perform again in the future. We would certainly recommend you highly to prospective clients.”

“You brought us laughter and amazement.”
Dear Zach:
You made our recent holiday party more fun just as promised. On top of that, you brought us laughter and amazement. In fact, everyone was buzzing about your magic for days after the party.
You certainly exceeded our expectations!
I know you can’t reveal the secrets of your magic tricks but frankly, we were so entertained that we don’t even want to know how it’s done. One secret I do know however…you’re a gifted entertainer.
Thanks again for adding your special magic to our event. I look forward to working with you again and please feel free to use me as a reference for anyone considering your services.
Sincerely,

“We didn’t want a stuffy or uncomfortable atmosphere.”
Dear Zach,
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for helping make Absolut’s “Day at the Races” a success. The day was intended to show our appreciation to some of our key customers. What we didn’t want was a stuffy or uncomfortable “hard sell” atmosphere.
The other concern we had while planning the event was that people would become bored during the twenty-minute periods between races. Everyone at the event enjoyed the time you spent entertaining them at their tables. Your mix of magic and comedy kept the atmosphere light and the day moving.
Best of luck with your future endeavors!
Sincerely,
Michael L. Olsker
Regional Marketing Director

“I was a little hesitant about having a magician/comedian.”
Dear Zach,
I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you and to thank you for a wonderful performance at our company Christmas party. It is our goal to entertain our employees at out annual get together. I must admit I was a little hesitant about having a magician/comedian, was I ever surprised. You read each and everyone just right. Besides being an incredible magician I felt your comedy was extremely funny and tasteful at the right moments. Our employees are still commenting on how entertaining the evening was. We are looking forward to having you entertain our employees at our next annual gathering. We hope you will be available. May you have a prosperous New Year!
Respectfully,

Dear Zach,
I wanted to take a minute to write and thank you for your efforts in turning our holiday party into a wonderfully entertaining event. Everyone I’ve spoken with loved your magic, as well as your comedy. You did a great job of connecting with our group, and, like the consummate entertainer, left everyone wanting more.
You turned what could have been a mundane company dinner into a memorable evening filled with wonder and no shortage of laughter. Thank you for bringing your gift to CSC Consulting.

P.S. I’m sure I’ll take you up on the Magic Castle offer soon – I’ve never been there!
“Both your humor and shows were clever and tasteful.”
Dear Zach,
Thank you very much for a thoroughly memorable performance at our company’s annual holiday dinner party. Your close up sleight of hand performances as well as your show were highly complimented by our guests, and I have since overheard many a conversation throughout the rest of the evening (and into this morning at the office!) speculating how it was done. There were some theories, but they never encompassed the trick in its entirety, and most left the party pleasantly frustrated at not having been able to figure it out.
As for myself, I don’t want to know – I’d rather just believe in magic.
Both your humor and shows were clever and tasteful (not to mention your suit!), and left the guests all smiles and ready for the dance floor. I have no reservations about recommending your talents to anyone in need of stylish, professional entertainment for their gathering, whether corporate, family, or otherwise. Please feel free to give out my office number, should any of your potential clients prefer a verbal recommendation. You were an essential element in making our event an entertaining and successful one, and we all look forward to having you with us again next year.
I hope the rest of this year and the New Year to follow are full of laughs as good as the ones you gave us! Thank you again, and Happy Holidays!
Best Regards,
Jamee Devlin

“Zach is an asset to any organization.”
Dears Sirs,
Please allow this letter to serve as my professional referral of Zachary Waldman. Zach has worked for me here at my restaurant for over a year now and during that time, my team and my guests have come to respect him as a talented magicians and an incredible guest advocate. His style is laid back and does not come across as pushy to the guest. He is very funny and our guests enjoy his visits to the table. I have on many occasions fielded compliments from my guests on Zach’s behalf. He is a great guy that works for the house. He is open minded and receptive to new ideas, and more than once has stayed on later than his shift because we were busy and he knew he could impact the guest experience. Zach is friendly and professional and this comes across on every shift.
I know that when Zach is on the floor, my guests will have more fun. He is an asset to any organization. Please feel free to contact me at any of the enclosed media if you require more information.
Sincerely,
Richard Moore
