SAN FRANCISCO – Declared “Silicon Valley’s Favorite Magician” by BuzzFeed News, sleight-of-hand master Dan Chan – the self-proclaimed “Billionaire’s Magician” – is offering to perform anywhere on Earth for just $1. Quite an offer from an award-winning magician who’s entertained an array of tech billionaires and almost every significant Silicon Valley tech company (including Google, Apple, Airbnb, PayPal, and Yahoo!) over the past decade.
Chan was inspired by David Blaine’s revelation of his “$1 rule” at the recent World Economic Forum in Davos, where the legendary illusionist explained that before making any decision he asks himself: “Would I do this for $1?”
“That really struck a chord with me,” said Chan. “Early in my career I did a few performances for just expenses – to make a name for myself, but also because I simply have such love for what I do. I want to stay connected to that feeling by offering this one-off $1 performance.”
The most intriguing offer Chan receives over the next 30 days – be it a private or corporate party, a community event, or a marketing experience – he’ll accept for a fee of just $1 (plus travel/ accommodation expenses).
The chosen client will enjoy Chan’s unique, tailored blend of traditional sleight of hand magic, signature contemporary tricks (including “magically” unlocking iPhones or cracking passwords), and timelessly playful showmanship. Chan’s 11-year-old son, James – already a highly skilled magician in his own right – often appears alongside his dad, as does Chan’s wife, Kat, a world-class balloon twister.
“I think it’s good advice to any startup, be it a performer or a tech company, to follow your passion and to keep that passion,” Chan concluded. “My $1 performance is meant to spread that spirit – which can also just be smart business, as David Blaine’s success proves.”
