As a magician, you want to spend the majority of your time delighting audiences with your incredible magic tricks, not worrying about organization and the finer details of your business. A CRM can help you stay organized, keep track of leads and clients, and streamline your workflow so that you can focus on what you do best. To get off to the best possible start with your new CRM, you’ll want to customize it to suit your needs.

There are many CRM features that there’s no need to customize, but to make the most of your CRM, some features will require a bit more set up. To speed up your CRM set up process, read on for customization ideas that will help you get the best value out of your CRM as a magician.

Three critical features that you’ll want to customize in your CRM are groups, pipelines, and custom fields. Take a look below for some inspiration for how you can customize these three features as a magician and make your CRM work for you.

Custom fields

As a magician, it will be especially important to collect information on the events you are performing at ahead of time, so on the day of the event you can focus on putting on the best possible magic show.

  • 🎉Event Type (dropdown field listing different types of events, like birthday parties, corporate events etc.)
  • 🏢Event Venue (text field listing the performance venue)
  • 💸Payment Amount (currency field listing payment for each performance)
  • 🗓️Event Date (date field listing the date of each performance)

Custom fields let you take your CRM to the next level. Collect more than just the basic information about the contacts and companies you work with; instead, collect everything that is critical for your work.

Pipelines

Pipelines are composed of statuses - each status is step in the process you are tracking. Pipelines consist of both active and closed status. An active status is something that requires follow up or additional work. A closed status tracks the end points of a process.

As a magician, you can use a pipeline to track your entire process. From the first request that you perform at an event to when you are taking your final bow - store all of that information in your pipeline. Take a look at an example pipeline for magicians below.

Active statuses

Inquiry Received
Availability Confirmed
Booking Confirmed
Prepped for Performance
Performance Completed

Closed statuses

Pipelines are one of the most useful CRM features; they let you track any workflow or process that you repeat over and over again. It's a great way to make sure nothing slips through the cracks.

Groups

As a magician, groups will help you easily organize your list of venues and potential venues to perform at. Take a look at a couple example groups that are perfect for magicians below.

  • 🎭Theaters
  • 🏫Schools
  • 🪄Magic clubs

Groups are a handy feature that you can use to segment and organize your list of contacts and companies in the CRM. Think of groups as tags that you can attach to anyone to assign a label to them.
