Michael Abrahamson – Corporate Mentalist is one of SA’s top mentalists and has modified his corporate show to feature unique routines which are mind-boggling. His show is fully interactive and promotes lots of discussion – the perfect ice-breaker to your event.
Michael originally made his name in the industry as a multi award-winning sports broadcaster on TV and radio.
He has covered high profile sporting events across the globe, including the Athens Olympic Games, World Cups in cricket, rugby and soccer, SA tours to the Caribbean, Italy and the UK and major events in over 20 sporting codes.
He was the recipient of the top radio broadcaster SAB award for the FIFA 2010 World Cup and his voice has been heard internationally.
He also does voice overs and acts as MC for numerous cricket, swimming and gymnastics events.
Originally a magician, Michael was exposed to mentalism in the early 2000s, and immediately started working on putting a unique show together.
Since SA has very few mentalists, Michael’s show is unique and a real eye-opener to clients looking for something very different to spice up their events.
Michael Abrahamson show varies from event to event and he never performs exactly the same show twice, in order to give people who might have seen him before, something new to watch and enjoy.
Mentalism is an art form which allows the mentalist to use his or her five senses to create some wonderfully unique entertainment.
Michael Abrahamson show incorporates mathematics, memory feats, psychological suggestion, mind reading, body language, eye movement etc, and he even prefaces his show with some information about how his audience can use these skills in their day to day life. As such, audience members leave the event not only with a mind-blowing show to talk about, but with some skills that they can use to better their own performances in their day to day lives.
His three mentalism stage shows, Powerbrain – The Mentalist, Powerbrain – The Mentalist Sequel and most recently, Visage – Revealing the Secrets of the Mind, have played to big audiences and exposed mentalism to a wide spectrum of the SA public.
Michael also offers training programmes for corporate clients, and runs Memory and Mind Building courses around the country for school learners, varsity and college students, and corporate clients.
Michael Abrahamson also offers quiz shows, both general knowledge and music, which also go down very well. All the quizzes have a twist at the end, which keeps everyone interested right up until the final round. He is also an MC and a sought-after guest speaker, and his client list involves most of the big corporate companies in SA.

Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.
Virtual speaking appearances can indeed offer cost savings compared to in-person events. Virtual speaking rates are often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates due to factors such as reduced travel expenses and logistics. This makes virtual events a cost-effective alternative for organizations looking to book speakers within a budget.
Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.
The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.
Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.
Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.
