For Sales Kickoffs · Conferences · Holiday Parties · Leadership Retreats

The agenda item your team will still quote at next year's kickoff.

A polished comedy hypnosis show, with an optional When the Curtain Rises motivational keynote pairing, built for corporate audiences who have seen the usual entertainment and aren't in the mood for it. Nothing cringe, nothing sales-pitchy: just an hour your people can't stop talking about.

Corporate entertainment without the cringe.

Your team has sat through a lot of team-building in their lives, and they can spot a cheesy icebreaker from three hotel ballrooms away. This is different: a comedy hypnosis show where they are the thing being watched, not a performer lecturing at them, plus an optional motivational keynote (When the Curtain Rises) on courage, nerves, and walking in when it matters. Same performer, one very memorable event.

Built For Your Run-Of-Show

Fits the slots you're trying to fill right now.

Sales Kickoffs (SKO)

The evening-one headline event: the show that makes day-two buzz louder than the quota announcement.

Conferences & Associations

A daytime keynote paired with an evening comedy hypnosis show, one of the strongest attendance drivers for a closing night.

Holiday / Year-End Parties

The reason your people actually show up to the holiday party this year.

Leadership Retreats & Offsites

A more intimate version built for executive teams: closer up, more mentalism, more customized.

Combo Offering

Book the keynote and the show. Same day, same performer, one flat rate.

Most conferences book a keynote and a performer separately. I offer them as a combo: a 45 to 60 minute delivery of my signature talk When the Curtain Rises (on courage, fear as a signal, and walking in when it matters) as your daytime programming, and the full-length comedy hypnosis show as your evening entertainment. Same performer, one contract, one COI, one check-in with your AV team, and a narrative arc across the day that almost nobody else in this category offers.

  • One agreement, one COI, one invoice
  • Bundled pricing (a meaningful discount versus booking separately)
  • Shared tech rider and AV briefing
  • The daytime keynote seeds the evening show; the bits tie together

Corporate & association FAQ

Can you make it specific to our company, industry, or theme?

Yes. Tell me your kickoff theme, your values language, and your internal references, and I'll weave them in. I won't ad-lib anything your team hasn't cleared.

Will this embarrass any of our executives?

No. Volunteers opt in and executives can stay seated if they'd rather. The show is built on moments that are funny with the volunteer, not at them.

Do you travel internationally?

U.S. and Canada by default. International is possible on request: let's talk timing.

Can we get rights to the video for internal use?

Usually yes, with a short addendum. Ask up front.

What does pricing look like?

Corporate dates start at $2,500. The keynote-plus-show combo carries a bundled rate that beats booking the two separately. Request a quote for your specific date and venue.

How do you handle NDAs and confidentiality?

Happy to sign a mutual NDA before the advance call if your event or content is sensitive.

Let's make your event the one people compare next year's to.

Tell me your date, audience, and venue. I'll reply within 24 hours with availability, a tailored pitch, and a clean quote, plus bundled pricing if you want the keynote too.
