Are you a clean comedian looking to break into corporate comedy work? Well, there isn’t near as much competition as in the comedy club market and the pay can literally dwarf any comedy club income.

There are a number of very good reasons why there is so little competition in the corporate marketplace when it comes to corporate comedians.

The #1 reason is because there are so few clean comedians that can actually deliver funny comedy that is APPROPRIATE for the corporate market.  You also have to realize that most comedians don’t even begin to look at the corporate market until they are well into their careers. Most are looking for the glamor, fame and fortune of movies and TV.

bill-engvallBill Engvall was the first headlining comedian I had ever experienced — I was 33 years old at the time. It was at the Improv Comedy Club at the end of 1992 (the comedy club died the next year).

I laughed so hard that night my ribs were sore for two days.

That single event set the level of laughter that I wanted to achieve in my own stand-up comedy career.

Now Bill Engvall has become one of America’s top comedians and has scored #1 albums earning platinum and gold status, out-selling super star comedians like Chris Rock, Adam Sandler and Jerry Seinfeld.

He has also starred in “Blue Collar TV” and the Blue Collar Comedy Tour movies, whose original documented the most successful comedy tour in years.

Bill recently participated in the final installment of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, appearing on the One For The Road CD and DVD. His newest CD and DVD,15º Off Cool, filmed at the Paramount Theatre in Austin, TX, features all-new material.

As a new or aspiring comedian, Bill Engvall is a comedy master to study and lean from, especially if you use the newer, harder hitting, conversational style of stand-up comedy as detailed in the Killer Stand-up Online Course.
