“There is nothing like the feeling
 of making an audience laugh.”~ Darren LaCroix

Maybe you aren’t funny? Perfect. You are just like Darren! He took the stage for the first time at a Boston comedy club in 1992… and bombed miserably. It got even worse. His punchlines were so bad, the only thing he could hear was the ceiling fan. Ouch. Then he discovered a process where he learned that comedians actually use exercises and formulas to generate their own humor.

Do you believe funny people think differently? The truth is they do. You will never be funnier until you change the way you think.

What would it mean to you if you could use humor more effectively? Seriously! How would using more humor help you with your presentations?

They say that presenters who use humor…
Connect deeper • Earn more • Motivate more effectively

Are more memorable • Stand out • Have more fun!

(Oh yeah, they just plain get booked more, too!)
