Hiring a Corporate Comedian
One of the best ways to ensure a memorable company bonding session is by hiring a professional stand up comedian.
A fun and humorous performance is a great way to loosen people up, lift the mood and remind people why your company is a great place to work.
Memphis has plenty of small and large businesses that do events almost every week, so we thought we'd list some of the working comedians we see doing events at offices and hotels throughout the city.
For example, a crowd of HR professionals or computer engineers may find different things funny than a group of energetic car dealership employees.
