Business of Comedy can be daunting, frustrating and downright maddening. You may have a strong set that kills in front of crowds but find yourself ignored, treated badly and without a consistent flow of jobs or bookings in the calendar!

The secret that no one wants to talk about is that getting booked and developing your career has very little to do with "being funny". Your success in this industry will depend largely on whether or not you understand the business side of comedy.

​

You must learn and leverage the tools that will put the power back into your hands. Beyond going to overcrowded open mics with a bucket raffle system (that's actually rigged) or submitting to comedy festivals and never getting in, or entering comedy competitions that cost you money. 

​

​

Workshop will cover ...

-Techniques and tools that will get you booked
