Description:

It’s no joke: marketing and comedy have a lot in common. In this panel that has been a hit at SXSW, four marketers who moonlight as stand-up comics will share how they use joke writing and live performance techniques to engage and delight their audiences. You’ll hear key learnings from their experience in both fields, including the importance of listening to your audience, being true to your brand, and learning from failures—whether you bomb on stage or on a landing page.
