I have discovered a killer “off the shelf” resource for those who are interested in developing “corporate” comedy material, if you can grasp this core principle:

The mechanics of laughter are exactly the SAME whether it be on the stand-up comedy stage or if you are giving a speech.

If you have read my system, you also know that…

These same laughter mechanics apply whether you are doing “edgy” material or clean material.

The reason that I’m telling you this is because the resource I am going to share with you is a website geared towards public speaking and not specifically stand-up comedy.

BUT…

Don’t let that stop you from checking it out because I know what’s available there – and it is PERFECT for comedians who want to perform stand-up comedy outside the comedy club market (and get paid well if that is appealing):

Telepathic Laughter Doesn’t Count In Stand-up Comedy

Comedians who can’t seem to deliver an average of 18+ seconds of laughter per minute (PAR Score 30+) remind me of politicians who skirt the real issues with “spin” and sometimes shear nonsense.

They will say that stand-up comedy is subjective and can’t be measured on a “seconds of laughter per minute” basis.

It’s true that telepathic laughter cannot be measured on a minute-by-minute basis — only laughing out loud can.

I submit that any subjective attributes associated with any comedian or their material are MEANINGLESS unless that comedian is getting laughs — big laughs like so many headline comedians have demonstrated for decades.
