Akaivyleaf,

By "balloon artist", do you mean that you make little animals out of balloons? Not sure where you're located, but here in Northern NJ, talents like that would go over great at kids' birthday parties. You could advertise in papers directed toward moms/kids ("ParentPaper" is one we have). Also, you could put your flyers in other places where people have birthday parties for kids (gymanstics places, ice cream parlors, etc.) as an "add on" to the party. Can you get a booth at town fairs and the like? Can you do face painting, too? Parents around here pay a fortune for that stuff...

I know it seems like I'm awfully excited about your idea...I guess it's because I have absolutely no creative talent whatsoever, so I could never make it work, but I think it's a great idea...Good luck!
