Cold Reading Tradecraft
Imagine meeting someone for the very first time and being able to reveal not only some of their innermost thoughts, but details of personal events yet to come. It appears to be nothing less than a genuine demonstration of extrasensory perception, ESP. This is the power of cold reading - a process used by professional psychics, mind readers, fortunetellers, intuitive counselors and guides, and mentalists. In our exclusive, best-selling book, TRADECRAFT, you'll learn how to harness this power to entertain your clients. Today's audiences love ESP entertainment, which is why so many of today's top professionals have already acquired this important skill. Now you can, too. All you have to do is follow the information and simple techniques outlined in this guide.

Forget the expensive canned scripts.

Forget the over generalized guides, which still leave you in the dark after you've read or listened to them.

Forget the courses which only show you how to mimic someone else's technique.

Only our concise "how-to" manual, TRADECRAFT, takes you step-by-step through the process of developing YOUR OWN cold reading abilities - from gaining a solid grasp of the underlying scientific principles at work to the practical application of specific methods and techniques. Plus, you'll even learn how to correctly answer the most difficult questions readers face.

Many of today's top mentalists, including Derren Brown and Banachek, use contact mind reading in their professional work.

Contact Mind Reading Expanded

CONTACT MIND READING, sometimes also called, "Muscle Reading" or "Hellstromism," offers you the ability to locate almost any object hidden by members of the audience - even while blindfolded! For example, someone writes down the name of another person in the audience on a slip of paper and seals it inside an envelope. This name is unknown to all except the writer. Using contact mind reading, you locate the mystery person and deliver the envelope. Another popular presentation is to have a ring borrowed from a spectator and hidden. You not only locate the ring, but the person it belongs to as well - a person who is sitting in an entirely different area of the room, hall or theater. Consider the built-in comedy and entertainment possibilities of having two couples, completely unknown to you, switch spouses/partners. You locate and reunite them! These are just a few of the almost limitless performance possibilities of contact mind reading. Some leading performers even use it as a means to accomplishing the supreme finale to an evening of mentalism entertainment. They have their paycheck for the show hidden by a committee. If they don't locate it in their final "test" of the evening, they don't get paid. Of course, using contact mind reading they do! Can you imagine a stronger finish or one that will generate more word of mouth advertising for your show?
