Does The Killer Stand-up Comedy System Work? Ask Comedian Clayburn Cox
Before I introduce you to rising comedian Clayburn Cox, let me say this:
One of the questions that I know many people have on their brain once they have visited my website or will ask me directly is “Does the Killer Stand-up Comedy System really work?”
That’s not a hard question for me to answer. My response to that frequently asked question has been and will always be:
“If you are truly a naturally funny person in everyday life, you have a sense of humor that translates well to a general audience AND you are willing to truly work at honing your comedic abilities for the stage—I challenge you to find ANY system or process that can give you real and measurable results faster than the Killer Stand-up Comedy System.”
But I am fully aware that the statement above will never be as powerful coming from me as actually SEEING real results for yourself.
Now, let me introduce you to comedian Clayburn Cox.
Clayburn is a high school teacher in Auburn, Alabama—a city of just over 58,000 people. And he did something that I don’t usually get access to when comedians contact me, which is…
He sent me links to YouTube videos of his stand-up comedy performances BEFORE and shortly AFTER using the Killer Stand-up Comedy System.
YouTube Video #1
Clayburn Cox had been performing stand-up comedy for less than 6 months and WAS NOT using the my system when the video you are about to review was produced—it was recorded in July 2009.
His PAR Score in this first video is right around 25 (which is pretty darned good for someone who has been performing for less than 6 months):
YouTube Video #2
Now, let’s take a look at comedian Clayburn Cox AFTER using the Killer Stand-up Comedy System and a very brief phone call from me about long set-ups and avoiding running over laughs.
The video you are about to review was recorded in October 2009—just 3 months after the previous video.
This performance was recorded at a comedy competition (he took 2nd place) and the PAR Score for this performance is about 42 (that’s a comedy star level performance—click here to see the PAR Scores of the comedy stars):
This performance level resulted in a week of opener work at the comedy club hosting the comedy competition.
The bottom line:
If you ask me if the Killer Stand-up Comedy System really works or not, don’t take my word for it. Just compare the before and after YouTube videos of Clayburn above.
Or just go directly to the source and ask comedian Clayburn Cox himself, who I strongly suspect that you will be seeing more of in the near future based on his stand-up comedy skill. His website is http://www.clayburncoxcomedy.com/.
Fair enough?
Cheers,

I am a great ventriloquist as far as technical ability but I don’t seem to be able to make people laugh. I also don’t have a great memory any…. Uh… So can this course help me? Seriously, Corey
There is NO course on the planet to give someone a “better” sense of humor – including mine.
You MUST come to the table with comedy talent already. Most people have a sense humor that would be just fine for the stage but…
They opt to try to “write” their way to funny, as opposed to learning the critical dynamics that are actually responsible for laughter generation.
