Hi Karen, Just wanted to inform you that I have received my four tape collection of Extreme Bartending tricks. They are so kool. I guess that I am now a Scott Smart enthusiast (smile).

I will recommend him and his video s to any one that will listen to me. Can you tell that I am excited?(Brad: jumping up and down. giggle, giggle) I know that I was supposed to watch the tapes at intervals of a week apart and practice the moves for that week. ( cheapest grin )However, I couldn t wait. So I watched all of them so that I could see everything that I am going to learn. Very kool indeed. But now, I will do the weekly lessons in order. Some of the moves I already know, but most of it is brand new to me. This should keep me busy for awhile.

I plan on ordering more video s shortly, until I get them all. I just love this stuff. Thanx again and you will be hearing from me for sure. Have a super day! Ciao!Respectfully,

Brad Harrison

WOW….i saw extreme bartending by accident at a local bar and was hooked instantly!! Im not your average student, because i am not a bartender. I see bartending as a great side job just for fun, and this as a way to turn fun into an absolute riot!!

I am a Paramedic and Firefighter in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I taught myself to juggle tennis balls, and have been riding a unicycle since i was 12. I thought the balance and hand/eye coordination found in extreme bartending would be right up my alley, and i was right!!! I got your videos just for fun, as i do get to bartend at parties, and local pubs from time to time just for the heck of it and not for the $$ (although more $$ would be nice). I thought that with my coordination and balance this would be a snap to learn. Boy was i mistaken!!

Your videos do such a wonderful job at making things look easy that I got cocky and skipped over the easy stuff like straws and tins. BIG MISTAKE!! So i went back to the basics like i should have in the first place and found the straw tricks to be quite a challenge, but with practice im getting there and even see some of my other tricks developing the finesse they need to look good.

I can\ t wait to get my hands on more of your videos, but with my personality i think its best to stick with the basics and get those down solid before i tempt myself with more difficult moves.

AWESOME training videos!! Im having a BLAST!! Keep up the good work, and let me know if you guys are ever anywhere near Grand Rapids, Michigan. I would LOVE to meet your team in person and watch them in action.

After only the First Day of His Seminar, Scott and the BarSmart staff taught me an entire new way of approaching my job. That night I went to work thinking of different ways I could make my customers happy.

I made almost $100 more in tips that night than ever before, and to this day have not had a night go anything but smooth.
Thanks Alot Guys

Hello Scott,My name is Jason Brasher, I m from Winnipeg, Manitoba.I recently participated in the Quest For The Best Bartender competition and am now on the way to Orlando, Florida for the finals.
It is greatly due to the help of your training videos.

A friend of mine asked if I could show him how to flair and with three weeks before the competition,and the aid of the EXTREME VIDEO SERIES,he made it to the top four finalists.

From both of us, I wish to say thank you for creating this series. Without it we would not have made it as far as we did. Thank you for showing us how to bartend with style. All the best,

We at Legends Western Cabaret recently got the 4 pack of extreme videos and are we ever impressed….. My manager Robin and I have been practising for a couple of weeks and it s all starting to come together now. It s flattering to hear the customers asking us to do the Tom Cruise thing .

Already we re getting people coming in to the bar telling us that they d heard of us and wanted to see something Cool .

Robin and I were both getting a little bored with bartending and now it seems like we could do this for many more years…tips have also gone up(thanks). Thanks for making the videos and offering them for sale, just can t watch them enough. Please let me know if your going to be making a new video or if your going to be in or around Edmonton area for any shows….it d be great to see you live in action. Once again thanks……got to go practise. Cold Lake AB.

Dear Bar Gurus (Scott, Ian & Ryan),
While it would be very easy to continually relay platitudes regarding how much we enjoyed the course, perhaps the best method to measure our success is through the customer s reaction.

Not only have our gratuities increased in what can only be described as a remarkable sum, but the Ooh! , Aah! , & Wow! Factors have increased four fold! The bar has become a part of the club where entertainment is anticipated with excitement, and applauded upon delivery.

Revenue from up-selling has made a sharp increase, whether it be from singles to doubles, bar-stock to premiums, or beer drinkers to cocktails.

Even the bikers are ordering Long Island Ice Teas just to see what will happen! All of us are very pleased, and you are a part of our present and future success. Thanks for the Inspiration.
