					<description><![CDATA[This was very insightful, thanks... I&#039;ve been telling younger comics for years &quot;the more Clean Work you can do, the more Work you&#039;re gonna get&quot;. Besides, I always make sure that none of my jokes should REQUIRE an F-Bomb to make it funny, and being from The Bronx, NY, the F-Bomb is just a part of my everyday vocabulary. I just understand who I want to be and what messages I want to deliver when I am on stage. I&#039;m glad I came across your page, definitely going to browse around. 

Keep Laughing,

					<description><![CDATA[This article is very encouraging to me. Watching the I AM COMIC movie convinced me of what I was already suspecting: I am better suited for corporate comedy, especially since I like to have &#039;purpose&#039; to my monologues -- other than entertainment only, I mean. I&#039;m not suggesting that there is anything wrong with that type of act; it&#039;s just that I am known for being able to present serious and dull information in a humourous way. So, for me personally, an act that is total humour without having some reason -- motivating, emceeing, explaining or selling policy, etc. -- would seem incomplete, and I would feel like an actor in a play.  Therefore, I am already exploring the corporate comedy market in my area.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.realfirststeps.com/939/become-corporate-comedian/comment-page-2/#comment-1598&quot;&gt;john hill&lt;/a&gt;.

John - you haven&#039;t been on stage to know if blue, clean or both is right for you. I can&#039;t determine your goals and dreams for you.

There&#039;s a saying in the insurance business that goes like this -- plan your work and work your plan.

You need to be having fun along the way AND entertaining audiences at the highest level possible.

But nothing is going to happen until you get on stage or in front of audiences with your stand-up comedy act. Does that make sense?

Not trying to mean, but football coaches don&#039;t powder players asses. They lay out plans, they practice the plans, then they execute those practiced plans on the field. Does everything go as planned? No it doesn&#039;t. They do they best they can do and make the most intelligent adjustments they can after every single game to make the best (and fastest) improvements they can. 

Stand-up comedy is no different for those who want to succeed.

I don&#039;t powder the asses of those who want to become professional comedy entertainers. I am focused on results, just like I expect that the new comedians who are looking to make headway in what can be considered one of the most challenging entertainment art forms to focus on results as well.

Your success as a comedian will come from being a knowledgeable, highly prepared comedian who actually knows what they are doing on stage to make people laugh at a significant level. 

That&#039;s what I offer as opposed to some sort of unrealistic &quot;sales pitch&quot; to get you to buy my course, promising that which I cannot offer.

I hope that helps.]]></description>
