Positive Increases by Scott F. Guinn
Some of the biggest names in magic and mentalism have raved about Assertive Positive Negative, Scott F. Guinn's improvement of Max Maven's "Positive Negative." Luminaries such as Ron Bauer, Richard Busch, Dr. Bill Cushman, and Richard Webster have been effusive in their praise. It would have been perfectly understandable, then, for Scott to have rested on his laurels and let the routine alone.
But Scott felt there was room for improvement, particularly on one part of the handling. For months and months, he tinkered and fiddled with the routine. And finally, much as with the epiphany that birthed APN, a very simple and elegant solution occurred to him. It was a small detail, but after many real-world performances it was clear that it resulted in a big improvement.
Scott recorded the altered handling and sent it to a number of trusted peers, all of whom are working pros or very serious and well-informed hobbyists. The response was unanimous - they all felt it was an improvement and warranted publication. Positive Increases is the result. It is a commercial, professional, stunning piece of impromptu mentalism that is FUN and puts all the focus on the spectator. You correctly predict which of three imaginary coins is chosen and the mentally selected orientation (heads or tails) of that coin. And it finishes with your business card in their hands, regardless of the outcome!
This routine is sleight-less and easy to learn. For only $10 you will have a real reputation-maker you can do anytime anywhere for the rest of your life!

"I need never be caught without a truly mind-bending piece of impromptu magic again. This is strong, subtle stuff. Thank you Scott (and Max!) for developing and sharing Positive Increases!" - Victor Brisbin1st edition 2015, 16 pages.
"I have used Scott's Assertive Positive Negative for a few years and have always had good responses with it. Now with his new handling it definitely creates a bigger impact. If you already have APN and use it, you may want to spring for this update. If you don't have Scott's APN, then you absolutely want to get this improvement. All you need is a business card and a pen, and it's super easy. I highly recommend it!" - Alec Negri
"Without question, my go to impromptu effect for the past several years has been Scott's Assertive Positive Negative. I love it. So when I saw that Scott was coming out with a modified version, I didn't hesitate to order and am happy I did. I thought APN was pretty flawless, so was curious what Scott added or modified. Sure enough, Scott has found ways to make APN even stronger! It's still a solid, clean, fun, easy to do routine, but now the reveal is even stronger. For $10, if you already own APN, you'll find the improvements worth the price. If you don't own APN, to me it's a no-brainer! This is a true winner, and continues to be my favorite Positive Negative routine. Highly recommended." - Bill Fritz
"Bought it. Read it. Liked the change. I plan to use it, which is a rarity. So it was well worth the money. Great work as usual, Mr. Guinn!" - Elliott Bresler
