  • The administrative work of comedy

  • Email etiquette

  • Tailoring emails to specific bookers

  • Google email extractor

  • Building an email list

  • Setting a price for your comedy

  • Getting gigs through eventbrite

  • Booking shows outside of the comedy club

  • How to interact with fans after shows

  • Having multiple streams of income
