About this listen

In this episode of Put Your Funny Where Your Mouth Is, Vince Carone and Dobie Maxwell open up the playbook on how to land a corporate comedy gig. From the first inquiry to the signed contract, Vince breaks down the business side of comedy: covering proposals, deposits, pricing, and the fine print most comics never consider until it’s too late.

Dobie brings his veteran perspective to the table, steering the conversation toward the bigger lessons in professionalism and negotiation, while Vince shares the trial-by-fire experiences that taught him how to protect himself and his work.

Key Points Discussed:

  • Why corporate gigs pay more—and demand more
  • How to vet an inquiry before saying yes
  • Structuring proposals and pricing options
  • Why contracts, deposits, and cancellation clauses matter
  • The difference between invoices and contracts
  • How to control your marketing and promotional materials
