Money Box Tips for Performers

Video Transcript

"Now, after the merchant suitcase you realize that I have this wonderful and amazingly well designed money box here to hold all of my money. It's not only my money box. I've got a sticker collection here. Amazing soccer stars, kids, a moose. A little sticker that I picked up from a screen printing guy and another sticker that I picked up from, well, your friend and mine, sticker guy. If you open it up you'll see here that it's a good storage place. A good hide out for Lego's such as Darth Vadar who's light saber lights up. We've got the guy from Harry Potter in here. A number of other guys. Our main guy which is Bobby the Lego who's an astronaut and a surfer. And we also have, it's a good place for stickers, business cards, you want to make sure and have those in there. Which I have down at the bottom. This is the secret stash area. So in here you keep a little envelope for your credit card receipts. You keep extra information that you don't want other people to see and you keep the big money when you start touring. I'm not touring right now so these are the business cards area. Most of the time I keep them in here. In this little thing so I've got easy access for them. And then we've also got markers, pens. The markers are for signing autographs. You really do have to carry those. And it's a good place as well for your change area. I'm not on the road right now but usually you want to carry a good selection of a couple fives and a few ones. Maybe about 8, 10 ones in here so that you can give change out to the first couple of customers that come your way. Usually after a few you're all set. But at the beginning you need a few ones and some fives in here to get things going. That is our wonderful money box."
