So in my show I always try to make friends with everybody I try to remember everyone's name, and that goes a long way remembering peoples names. And then introducing people to each other and that a lot of people that I've met because of me it's about 6, or 7 couples that are married because of my shows through the last 7 years so that's pretty good. We have a big karaoke contest that we do every year during this year is $5,000 first prize, that's a great way to market your stuff. I also do things like tambourines, maracas just getting the beat going that's a great way to get the show going and always be nice to everybody you never know who your going to met.
