How can you get a quick leg up in the comedy business???
Jim Richardson has been coaching comics and producing stand-up comedy shows featuring appearances by Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, Rob Schneider, etc., since 1977 throughout Northern California.
One-on-one coaching: I have read "Jim Richardson's Coaching and Co-Writing Your Stand-Up Comedy Act or Business Keynote Speech" and understand Jim's procedures. I further understand that coaching is available long distance. I can take advantage of Jim's discounted pre-paid blocks of hours by appointment. All purchased coaching hours, "assumes Jim's hours working on both writing and coaching will be completed within 12 months." Plus: full motion, 30 frames per second videoconference coaching over the Internet at no additional charge has been available since January 4, 2003.
I will be attending the August 17 Atlanta Comedy Seminar and would also like to purchase one or more of Jim's specials on these discounted packages prior to the Seminar in order to get a leg up on the other contestants competing in the World's First Peach Pit Comedy Contest, Sunday, August 17, 7 pm, same location as the Comedy Seminar.
I understand that long-distance Coaching and Co-Writing is available by appointment right now, via phone and/or videoconferencing over the Internet.
Local media celebrities will be judging the contestants; so, I want to do my very best!
However, even if I can only tell a couple of jokes by that evening of August 17, under a special rule that levels the playing field . . . anyone can win!

Jim ran this contest every 6 weeks for 3 years, honing it to perfection as a development tool which has helped his students and clients win every major comedy competition in the United States of American, including the the $100,000 grand prize in the comedy division of Ed McMahon's "Star Search" TV Show.
I will not attend the August 17 Atlanta Comedy Seminar; but I would still like to purchase one or more of Jim's limited time specials on discounted packages.
Other:

Once I am registered for "Comedy Seminar"
or I buy a $100+ "Home Study Special,"
I will be emailed a link to "Bonus Web Site"
In addition to the Comedy Seminar or one of the Home Study "Specials" listed at $100 or more, as a bonus:
I will be sent a link to a 20 page web site Jim has just created.
I'll learn from the online video examples for 15 comedy categories to begin improving my own act or speech -- I will see:
The Greatest Stand-Up Comics of All Time
and learn by example, example, example!

. . . more information.

Note:this order form for discounted audio/tape workbook packages is separate from the Atlanta comedy seminar registration form for Jim's "1 Day Comedy Seminar!!" Sunday, August 17, 2003 in Atlanta.
