How to make money in the New Year's holidays

What kind of work

I have three years working in the New Year the Snow Maiden. For me, it's the coolest job in the world. You enter the apartment, you are met by a child with round eyes and starts to cry and jump for joy. He touched the coat, goes to cuddle, recited poems. Every five minutes, trying to quietly get into Grandpa's bag and pick up all the gifts. And you know, it's great. First, all the guests are watching warily, but very soon dancing around the Christmas tree with Grandfather Frost.

Great to come into the house and leave there a piece of luck and magic.

Many friends have asked me where to start, how to prepare, how much you can earn. In this article, I decided to highlight all the most popular questions and help young artists.

How much can you earn

It depends on the city. The average cost of a call for 30 minutes in Moscow - 3000 rubles, a chiming clock - 9000 rubles. for about 5-8 orders in the New Year's Eve at the Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. For the holiday you can earn 15 000-50 000, and if you try - and even more.

Take another city-one million - Kazan. The average cost of a call of Santa Claus - 2500 rubles, a chiming clock - 5000 rubles. Total: per night, you can earn from 12 000 to 35 000 rubles.

How to prepare

No child will believe a man in a red robe, which two words can not. Maiden also must not stand there on holiday. That everything went smoothly, you can enroll in acting classes, which teach man to speak the desired voice, and the girl - to change the voice. You can also take private lessons with a teacher or attend classes in animation school. The options are many, the main thing - to want.

It is better to start preparing in advance, ideally - in the past month. So you have time to hone your skills, make business cards and find props Christmas. And remember: if you do a good job, you will have the customers for the following year.

How to get orders

Agencies receive orders from their customers last year. Beginners can place their ads on Avito, create a group in social networks.

Remember that Santa Claus does not work only on the flats. Many companies want to organize a holiday for its employees in the office or at corporate parties, and kindergartens and schools are looking for Santa Claus at the matinee.

Where to find costumes and what to do with them later

There are two options:

• Buy. Good suit of Santa Claus is from 7000 rubles, the Snow Maiden - from 5000 rubles. These outfits can be used in the next year, and if this work you do not like - to sell.
• Rent. Two suits cost about 5000 rubles per day, but will also have to leave rather big bail. Naturally, you must return the suit at the exact time intact.

How to write a script

Performance in the apartment lasts an average of 20-30 minutes. During this time, Santa Claus congratulates kids playing games (throwing snowballs, pen freezes), listening to poetry and leads dance around Christmas trees. This is standard. If you want to make your interesting program, I recommend the site "Little nothings of life", Which contains contests and games for children.

It happens that some children in the family and they are all different ages. In this case, you need to be procured for each competitions. No need to scare kids loud music, and teenagers were forced to tell the poem.

How to beat shyness

The easiest way to rehearse the performance and overcome his shyness - is to go out in a suit on the playground and try to carry out the program for free. Firstly, you will see all of the major disadvantages. Secondly, will fight their own performance and potreniruetes timbre. Third, will please children and bring them joy. You can carry out such performances more than once.

The most important rule

Not to drink. No wine glasses, no cups, no little. In the New Year's days rule "Today you do not drink with us, and tomorrow motherland treason!" For you does not work. The kids waiting for Santa Claus sober, which smells good in the winter, and not something else.

Operate sober, and on weekends note as you wish. It is fair to you and to the children.

Personal experience

I'll tell you about my first speech. Spoiler: it was a disaster.

The application was given six year old child speech for 30 minutes. Everything is simple and clear. Some days we prepared and rehearsed. When arrived on the scene, we found that will conduct performance for 10-month-old baby. He does not walk, does not speak, the other children in the family is not.

I'm just scared child and stand there. Well, what happened to me was an experienced Santa Claus: he saved the entire order. Half an hour we threw snowballs with the guests of wool each other, and the child looked at all this and laugh.

After three orders I liberated and behave confidently. It seems to me, the main thing - is to believe that you're a real hero, and just relax.

Once you crossed the threshold of the apartment - forget who you are. Be real fun Snow Maiden or awkward, funny and kind Santa Claus.

Remember, it was great when a child you believed in Santa Claus and waiting for him? Bring the same feelings the kids home. You'll be pleased with him, and the children will be happy.
