FROM THE FIELD. NOT FROM THEORY.
My name is Tom Shanon.
I started alone, on the street, in a freestyle discipline nobody knew how to sell. Talent was not the problem. Access was.
So I studied the other side of the industry:
producers, booking agents, artistic directors, entertainment professionals, booking circuits, contracts, and markets.
And I discovered that the booking system is the same across disciplines:
– Stage entertainers
– Magicians
– Circus performers
– Dancers
– Singers
– Musicians
– Variety performers
If you understand the system, you can enter it.
If you don’t, you don’t get booked.
Over the years, I moved from street performing to professional shows and international stages.
Why don’t I keep this address book for myself?
After 50 years of practice, including over 30 years in the field as a world-class performer, I retired from the stage.
I no longer compete for bookings.
I now build professional access for performers.
– Real decision-makers.
– Real booking circuits.
– Real market contacts.
– Continuously updated 📈
MY BUSINESS is the address book of people who book performers.

The Story of Tom Shanon
WHY PERFORMERS ARE NOT BOOKED
Most performers believe the same lie:
“If my act is good enough, I will be booked.”
That is false.
The market does not book talent.
The market books what it can see, reach, and trust.
The real reason
Most performers are not invisible.
They are in the wrong place.
They spend their time where attention is cheap: social media, festivals, other performers.
They chase likes while staying outside the rooms where decisions are made.
Here is the real problem:
– You don’t know who decides
– You don’t know how to reach them directly
– You don’t know how pros approach them
– You don’t belong to any booking circuit
– You send random messages and get no answer
So nothing moves.
Because your position is wrong.
The booking market works on:
access → positioning → trust → repetition
If you don’t have access, nothing else matters.
Talent without access stays invisible.
This is exactly why MY BUSINESS exists.
Not to motivate you.
To place you where bookings actually happen.
WHAT’S INSIDE MY BUSINESS
It is a professional database
of verified booking contacts.
Inside, you don’t find tips.
You don’t find scraped emails.
You don’t find generic databases.
You find the people who decide.
WHO YOU ACCESS:
Bookers, booking agents, producers, directors, casting directors, artistic directors, senior casting advisors, artists managers, venue managers, event directors, etc.
WHERE THEY OPERATE:
Theme parks, cruise ships, circus, cabarets, dinner-show, variety theaters, casinos, galas, christmas galas, TV, event companies, corporate events, festivals, clubs, competitions, etc.
IMPORTANT:
This is a working address book. If you’re looking for motivation or inspiration, or if you don’t want to work in the international booking market, this is not for you.
Each contact selected for one reason only:
they book performers.
MY BUSINESS is the address book
of people who book performers.
HOW MY BUSINESS GETS YOU BOOKED
This is built for one goal:
to help you get booked consistently.
MY BUSINESS is not something you read.

You use it to:
1. identify real booking targets
2. build a professional outreach list
3. position your show correctly
4. contact decision-makers directly
5. follow up
6. build long-term booking relationships
It turns chaos into a pipeline.
No more guessing.
No more random posting.
No more waiting.
→ Build your booking pipeline
→ Access is immediate

It’s my best investment!
After my contract with Cirque du Soleil, I no longer found any work. Now, thank goodness I purchased Tom Shanon’s books and guides: that has solved all my problems! I have finally found someone who understands exactly what my difficulties are, because Tom, before me, also went through exactly the same things I did. He is a successful artist-entrepreneur who also advises me and to whom I can send the videos of my progress every week. Tom is an exceptional mentor, on the artistic front as well as on the business front!
I often buy show material but the works written by Tom are by far the best investment I have made. Thanks to him I am no longer the athlete of the Cirque du Soleil, but the independent artist I have always wanted to be. This investment has helped me save time. I have a lot more work, my art form is blossoming and I have made it into the “real network of performers”. In short, I am recognized now!

Tom Shanon makes us save considerable amounts of time!
I was pleasantly surprised by this man, Tom, and what he represented: all the references he had, television, galas at the most prestigious events, the most beautiful locations in the world, on the seas, on board several of the most luxurious cruise liners, etc.
It is not chance that brought him where he is! Tom is one of these guys who has understood “the concept of being an artist and doing business”. In every step to be pursued, knowing how to follow the process that takes you from a simple show idea, all the way to its creation and implementation, then, knowing how to sell that show. Tom Shanon makes us gain considerable amounts of time; he helps us by giving us the keys and tools to progress through this work, a real gold mine, whatever discipline we follow.

I got a really good contract …
Purchasing this contact book was a milestone for me…
As if by buying this book, I connected with “energies” of my true desires! Here I am in Florida for the creation of a whole new show with Cirque Dreams! I got a great contract and I’m going on the Norwegian Cruise Line Getaway for 9 months with great conditions! A whole new adventure awaits me! I have more and more tools for my career and I keep moving forward! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I can’t wait to use these tools and this contact book even more… I know that more and more magnificent larger things are coming for me! Thanks Tom!
