What is a corporate comedian?
A corporate comedian is just like a standup comedian except that their material is 100% clean. It can sound risky bringing in a stand up comedian to your next event.
Especially if you don’t want the rowdiness that comes with your typical comedy club. But a comedian versed in corporate comedy is a completely different experience.
The entertainment you get from Clean Comedians®, for example, gives you an entirely custom act. Because we invest in your event and collaborate with you on corporate goals.
Plus, we know that hilarious material doesn’t have to be dirty to be funny. That way, everyone among your corporate audiences can partake in the laughter without leaving any guests out.
Why welcome corporate comedians to your corporate events?
Clean entertainment options come with a host of benefits. But here are just a few that we’d like to highlight:
#1. Comedy entertainment is accessible for all audience members
When you’re looking to entertain an audience, the last thing you want to do is leave someone out. Especially when that audience is full of potential clients, donors, and employees.
Luckily, the inclusive language that corporate comedians put to use bypasses that risk. Because corporate comedy is all about what is relatable and funny.
Corporate comedy topics steer clear of politics, prejudice, and profanity. Besides, what’s the fun in bringing those kinds of topics up anyway?
When you don’t want to divide the audience, hire a corporate comedian. They’ll keep the laughter going without bringing current world events into the picture.
#2. Laughter bonds an audience like nothing else
If you’ve ever seen a stand up comedian, then you know just how much of a bond an audience forms when laughing together. The shared experience of fun reminds people to focus on what’s happening right in front of them.
Besides, laughing itself can be a pretty good workout too. The catharsis that accompanies laughter is something every entertainer knows how to harness.
And that’s exactly what you can expect from our comedians. If you’re looking to bond folks at your event, your best bet is to hire a world-class act of corporate comedy.
#3. A corporate clean comedian can act as an extension of your company
We like to say this to every client. But it’s true – any comedian you hire for your corporate event should act as an extension of your company.
Not just somebody who got hired to do their standard act. In fact, one of the best compliments we can ever receive is getting asked, “So, how long have you been with us?”
That’s how corporate comedians should come across at your events. And when you go with Clean Comedians®, you have that as a guarantee.
#4. Entertained audiences are more likely to be loyal customers
Every corporate event has a particular set of goals in mind. But don’t forget that audience members are also looking at corporate events as an escape from their everyday life.
This means they want to be entertained. They want to go into an event knowing that the material will be funny and worthwhile.
All of this contributes to building up their customer loyalty. You may even find a regular performer to partner with that guests look forward to watching every year.
In that case, you’ve got plenty of allies in your corner. Not only with the comedy act you hire, but with the audience members excited to see it.
#5. You get stand up comedy and a motivational speaker in one
Sometimes when you hire a stand up comedian, you only get a stand up comedian. But a majority of our entertainers are not just comedians.
They’re motivational speakers too! Talk about hitting the jackpot.
Not only will you get some funny material in the mix. But you’ll also get some uplifting speeches that can lead the charge for the next corporate initiative you’re planning to roll out.
We take pride in our comedy entertainers and their abilities as multifaceted performers. And we think you’ll be just as impressed when you hire them for your next event.
#6. You leave audiences and guests with a memorable and hilarious night
With so much going on in the world, it’s nice to have just one night where you can let your cares go. That’s what you’ll get with the comedians from our agency.
With folks itching to get back to in-person events, you can give them a night to remember. Because our comedians know how to make the evening worthwhile.
Plus, offering your clients a good time will only guarantee their future attendance. Soon enough, you’ll be scheduling the events of next year soon!
#7. A corporate comedian has the goals of the event planner in mind
Sometimes, a standard comedian will only have their act in mind. But a corporate comedian or entertainer will make sure to work with the event planner.
This means meeting before the event itself and mapping out any goals for the evening. You’d be surprised at just how effective these meetings can be.
Because every goal can be subtly accomplished in a comedy act when done right. We understand just how stressful event planning can be.
That’s why we’ve committed to making your life easier. In our book, the event planners are the real heroes of the evening.
#8. Comedians for corporate and private events get to cater their material to a specific audience
Standard comedy sets will revolve around any range of materials. But when working closely with a corporate comedian, you get to have some input too.
Let’s say you want a particular initiative highlighted. A corporate comedian can easily incorporate that into their comedy act. Plus, they may be able to crack a few clean jokes about it too, making it all the more memorable.
