You’re Crushing It On Stage – But Online?
Crickets.
You know you’re good. So why hasn’t your audience found you yet?
Every successful comedic entertainer you know didn’t just “get lucky” with social media.
They cracked the code - or hired someone who did.
our partners
but let's be real...
Most comedians don’t have the budget to hire a full-time social media agency or assistant.
So...
You post randomly.
Maybe you try trends that don’t quite land.
You wonder why your videos aren’t getting more than 30 likes.
And meanwhile…
That one guy from your open mic?
He’s blowing up on TikTok and booking gigs you didn’t even know existed.
Here’s the truth:
The difference between a comedian with sold-out shows…
And one still chasing gigs?
Marketing.
The biggest names in comedy aren’t just funny -
They know how to turn laughs into followers, ticket sales, and real income.
But the good news?
We’re going to show you exactly how to do that.
With the strategies tried, tested, and actively used by the biggest names in comedy today to:
Turn their followers into ticket buyers
Grow their platforms without posting 24/7
Monetize their content (without selling out)
Your audience is out there - let’s make sure they find you.
Introducing:
Up High University – The Mastery Series for Comedic Entertainers
The insider playbook that teaches you to market yourself - like the top headliners do.
Why Most Comedians Struggle to Grow (and How We Fix That)
the problem:
You’re funny on stage… but invisible online.
Social media feels like a second full-time job.
You’re guessing at what to post, hoping something sticks.
Why That Happens:
No strategy.
Posting without purpose.
And… no audience funnel to turn followers into ticket buyers.
Sound familiar?
Don’t worry - you’re not alone.
Most comedians were never taught how to market themselves.
That’s where we come in.
