Keeping your business event entertainment clean, not obscene: Amusing Without Abusing
When John Hakel decided to hire a comedian for one of his company's events,
he knew that hiring the right comic would be no laughing matter. As the
Director of the Association of General Contractors of California, Hakel
plans dozens of events each year and he had heard of other planners who got
blindsided when the hired comic's jokes quickly went from funny to filthy.
"My job security depends on making our association members happy at these
events," says Hakel, "not upsetting them with crude, racially insensitive or
sexually explicit humor."
With issues like workplace sexual harassment and political correctness so
prevalent these days, HR directors, event planners, office managers, and
other program coordinators are anxious to ensure that the hired talent for a
business or social event will entertain without offending.
Hakel avoided that embarrassment and kept his job by working with a company
like CleanComedians.com. In fact, since the original booking, Hakel has
hired performers from "Clean Comedians" for more than 30 separate events.
"Every time I have hired a Clean Comedians performer, my audience has loved
it. It's great to get hilarious comedy -- and never having to worry about
offending any guests."
CleanComedians.com is an entertainment production company that represents
more than 100 entertainers nationwide including; stand-up comedians,
comic-magicians, jugglers
and variety acts that get big laughs without
offending audiences. "It doesn't have to be filthy to be funny," says
CleanComedians.com President Adam Christing. "Many of our best customers
come to us because they got burnt hiring a raunchy comedian from a club the
previous year." And according to Christing, "clean is green" -- because
business is booming. Brian Tracy, one of the nation's leading business
authorities, believes that Christing's company is filling a vital need: "We
use them over and over to provide comedians who are funny, positive,
motivational, and clean. Our events are attended by many people who like to
laugh, but do not enjoy off-color jokes or language."
The company is so confident that their funny men and women will entertain
without embarrassing, they offer a money-back guarantee to event
coordinators. The Clean Comedians website allows program planners to preview
funny video clips for free and even offers an easy event planning form to
help make the occasion a success.

fundraiser or holiday go to: www.cleancomedians.com or call 714-670-1929.
