Lessons from Comedians - Getting Good at Things
from Audience Building Secrets with Chris Hughes Hosted by WhosChrisHughes
Ever wonder how the comedians who sell out the biggest arenas got there? One of the biggest things is experience... the next biggest thing is FAILURE. You see, they put in the time to test their material. To see what worked and what didn't work. When you see them performing on the big stages, you only see the stuff that proved to be good in the past. You don't see them failing miserably at the smaller clubs and bars where the experimenting takes place. They'll have 10 jokes, maybe 1 of them hits the first night. They'll take that 1 joke that worked and take it with them to the next show, using the feedback from the audience to decide what to tell in the next show. After that, they'll try 9 new jokes and see if any work. Over time, they'll be able to have 10 jokes in their arsenal that they know work. That's what you need to do with your content. Test a lot of stuff and see what works. Over time you'll get better at it.
