Faster & Funnier can help you with…

Hi, my name is Jared Volle.

I have been teaching stand-up comedy since 2010 and I actually practice what I preach when it comes to dominating on stage!

I was a finalist at the Great American Comedy Festival and even an opener for comedian Kyle Cease (voted #1 Comedy Central special of 2009).

I’ve performed shows with over a thousand people in the audience! I’ve struggled at open mics in dive bars at 1AM with a handful of drunk audience members and I’ve headlined sold-out shows. I’ve done it all.

Throughout that time, I’ve been obsessed with what makes world-class comedians so much different than struggling open mic comedians.

My Career Got Off To A Rough Start

I remember it like it was yesterday. I started doing improv comedy when I was in 6th grade and actually started getting paid for my improv gigs before graduating high school.

So I decided to try my hand at stand up comedy since I was really racking up the stage time. I figured it would be an easy transition right?

Wrong!

I stuck with the formulas being taught by the “masters” in tons of comedy books, courses and seminars.

I’d blow 2-3 hours reading a comedy book expecting to get some new “tricks” but it was just the same mindless brainstorming steps without any depth. All my jokes felt hacky and inauthentic.

And it started to show. I started struggling big time and started getting frustrated with the results I was getting on stage. I NEVER had problems with my improv but for some reason I wasn’t cutting it when it came to stand up comedy.

After awhile I started to lose my patience and started to doubt whether I had the “stuff” to be a successful stand up comedian. My confidence started to sink and I became a little paranoid of whom to trust for advice.

And as a result…

The Further My Confidence Sank,
The More I Started To BOMB At Gigs!

But then I realized why I was screwing up so much. I was following “old school” rules and formulas that no longer worked for today’s savvy audience.

I mean, I was a naturally funny guy and I was STILL bombing! That’s when I realized it wasn’t about the jokes… it was about ME… the comedian!

So I decided to throw out the rules and create something novel for a change. Stuff that allows you to generate so much material… and higher QUALITY material… that’ll set you apart from the pack.

Listen: this ain’t the 50’s anymore. Today’s audience is much more savvy than that. That’s something I painfully realized but I’m glad I figured it out while I was young.

My results were like night and day. Audience were howling at my material and within a month I already exceeded my all-time best (and I’ve been writing for years!)

I beat out other comedians who were using this old school “cookie-cutter” formulaic approach and eventually became a HUGE hit within a year:

In fact…

Guidance On Every Step Of Writing & Performing

Step-by-step guidance from writing your first joke to performing headliner-length shows.

"Best. Course. Ever."

Best. Course. Ever.

Jared has done his homework. And he’s as sharp as a piece of broken porcelain.

For the beginning comic, just his fundamental advice about memorizing material at the expense of persona is invaluable, but that’s just a start. As a published author with a journalism degree, I can tell you his writing advice is spot on.

But every single presentation and there are close to a 100 with variable lengths, has clear and concise information that will help the pro almost as much as it helps the novice.

For novices, this course is indispensable. For pros, I guarantee Jared’s informative videos are still well worth your time.

"Breaks down the walls we don't realize we put up for ourselves"

“The Faster and Funnier program gives you the tools you need to not only become a good comic. It helps you break down the walls we don’t realize we put up for ourselves and harness your craft to become a great comic. If your are serious about becoming a professional comedian then this is a must have.

A lesson that spoke to me the most was having to deal with hecklers. I always felt that my material was strong and could present it well. Hecklers could really throw me off. I would loose focus and or loose the audience because of my reactions. I found out how to deal with hecklers and embrace it into my act as to not loose the audience during my performances. This is one of many helpful concepts you will find in this program.”

It was SOOOO much easier to write

Faster & Funnier is spot on. I just applied the storytelling techniques and it was soooo much easier to write material. Not only did it help me focus more on how I naturally talk and have conversations, it helped me weave multiple jokes I made for a premise into a more natural cohesive bit. I can’t wait to test this new stuff out next time I get onstage.

Comedian Davincey Moore

Faster & Funnier Is The ONLY Stand-Up Comedy Video Course That'll Effortlessly Guide You Toward Being A HUGE Hit On Stage!

I was getting REAL results when I started implementing this new way of performing. Since discovering how to tap into my natural, authentic sense of humor like the greats, I’ve never had to feel like a hacky, no-personality, joke-telling machine. I’ve been able to take my natural sense of humor and put it on stage in the most authentic way possible.

And the audience RESPONDED better than I ever dreamt they would!

In fact, my closer went from 32% laughter (not too shabby by the way) to a staggering 69% laughter! And this closer consistently gets 2+ applause breaks every time…

… And this closer is over 2 minutes long!

Just think about what you can do with material that strong!

You'll gain instant respect from other comics that will immediately cement your position in the comedy community. It's all about who you know when it comes to comedy... and this will position you above the rest.
You’ll get FAR more bookings. Once people know you’ve got the “stuff”…word spreads like wildfire. And when you really blow it up at a gig, they’ll want you to come back again and again.
You’ll get MORE MONEY for each booking. The higher the demand for you increases, the more you’ll be able to charge per booking. It’s like a snowball going down a snowy mountain…it just gets bigger, bigger, and BIGGER!
You’ll be able to develop an enormous fanbase. This is “money” for a comedy career…people who will keep going to your gigs, brag about you, invite their friends, and keep buying your comedy CDs and DVDs.
You’ll get invited to the BIG shows. Remember when I said I was an opener for Kyle Cease (10 Things I Hate About You, #1 Comedy Central Special of 2009)… doing gigs in front of 1000 people? I got that opportunity by standing out from the crowd thanks to what I’m going to share with you in Faster & Funnier!

So How Much Is It Worth To You To Annihilate YEARS Of Trial And Error, Bombed Gigs And Extreme Embarrassment And Humiliation?

I know what you want: you want to be a successful and FUNNY stand up comedian in the shortest amount of time. And no other course teaches you what it takes to get today’s audience to laugh all the way to the bank!

When you take action today and order Faster & Funnier you’re going to be STUNNED. You’ll get FULL training on every aspect of your comedy writing.

I explain not just “how” to do it, but how and why every element of your writing works and how they work together to create massive success!

I’m going to hand you the power to control every aspect of your stand-up comedy career using this fast, simple, & tested system.

In fact, Faster & Funnier will…

Save You YEARS Of Trial And Error: It takes YEARS to acquire this information alone. How much time would you have wasted driving to and from shows, rewriting your material over and over and over as you slowly gain an understanding of what works and what doesn’t? Why spend more time as an amateur than you have to?
Save You A TON Of Money: How much gas money would you spend just DRIVING to these shows?! Over the course of a single year gas money alone could be hundreds of dollars! Wouldn’t you rather use that money driving to PAID GIGS?
Save You Endless Frustration: How many jokes would you have to bomb on stage to gain this knowledge? How many opportunities will you miss out on because you were stuck in an endless cycle of rewriting your material?
Save You TONS Of Energy: Revising your material is exhausting if you don’t know what you’re looking for, endlessly writing and rewriting only to find your no closer to a decent laugh. How much more fun would it be if you had a deep understanding of exactly what the audience was looking for?

I know for a fact that I would have paid THOUSANDS of dollars to discover this stuff 8 years ago when I was trying to break into stand-up comedy.

Not just money, but also TIME it would have saved me…along with the humiliation I wouldn’t have to endure at all those “dud” gigs where I couldn’t get a laugh to save my life.

Well, I’m not going to charge you $1000…not even $300 which is the going rate for most comedy courses out there.

In fact…

The Price Is Irrelevant Since Faster & Funnier Will Save You From Repeatedly BOMBING On Stage And Slowly Learning From Every Single Mistake!

Think about it: you can either learn this stuff the PAINFUL way like I did early in my career. Or you can save yourself YEARS of “figuring it out” yourself by taking advantage of this opportunity to have everything laid out for you on a silver platter…

…how to be more creative, get paid gigs, write jokes that are a step above the rest, and have more FUN.

Yes, I know the price is ridiculously low, especially when stand-up comedy teachers are charging $200-$300/hr for private tutoring, and you couldn’t possibly learn even 5% as much information in a single hour.

Thanks to the Internet we can provide quality personal coaching on our comedy courses for a tiny fraction of the price you’d pay anywhere else.

WE KNOW YOU HAVE QUESTIONS

AND WE'VE GOT ANSWERS!

Why is Faster & Funnier different?

Faster & Funnier is the most in-depth stand-up comedy writing program out there. We don’t just teach you a step-by-step process for writing each type of joke… we also break down exactly how jokes create humor, give a variety of comedy examples that show you how each joke type is used in real life, and include walkthroughs (so you can see Jared go from start to finish with random word prompts). We also provide a “progression system” that begins with easy joke-writing exercises. As you get used to each exercise, the training wheels slowly come off until you’re writing killer jokes all by yourself! The course is designed to make writing fun for new comedians, but still give you room to grow and find your own comedic voice.

Is Faster & Funnier For Me?

ANSWER: Whether you’re an aspiring comedian or you have years of experience under your belt or anything in between I can tell you this is for you. Jared has condensed over a decade of stand-up comedy experience into a single course that will works for all types of comedians and experience levels. We’ve had so many beginners go through FNF and absolutely love it, but we’ve also had professional comedians like Chuck Roy (Late Show, Will & Grace, 3rd Rock From The Sun, Ralphie May Filthy Animal Tour, Louie Anderson Presents, Josh Blue: Sticky Change) and Luke Lacoy (The Clean Comedy Podcast) who use these principles in their own comedy. No matter what level you’re at, you’ll be able to apply FNF in your career no doubt.

I've taken a course like FNF before... why will this one work for me?

Most courses are either A) Step-by-step based B) Theory-based or C) Example based. The FNF curriculum dives into all 3 areas to give you a well-rounded experience. Not to mention, Jared is one of the world’s leading experts on the psychology of humor. FNF condenses everything he’s learned from writing & performing comedy himself as well as interviewing other experts into an amazing, easy-t0-follow comedy writing program. In short, it’s different because it’s SUCH high value and it really, really works.

Am I ready for this?

Honestly, with anything new in life, you’re never going to feel completely “ready.” There’s always something else you can learn. There’s always a reason to tell yourself you’re not ready. Talk to any comedian working today (at any level) and they’ll tell you they weren’t ready either. They were just willing to learn as they went. Plus, if you jump in and it’s not for you, just let us know within 60 days and we will give you full refund. The risk is on us and we’re totally cool with that. FNF is a world-class comedy education and if you’re willing to put in the work and follow the plan we’ve laid out, you got this!

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes! If you don’t love our product (for any reason) then simply request a refund within 60 days and you’ll get a full refund.

What types of comedians does this work for?

All types. Whether you’re a one-liner or storyteller, Faster & Funnier will teach you how to write material effortlessly. It works for observational comedians, political humor, improvisational comedy, sketch comedy and (of course) all types of stand-up comedy.

I've never been on stage before... will this still work for me?

Yes of course! This course is designed to make it easy to write and perform your first set. You’ll learn everything you need to start living your dream! There’s a section of this course that’s all about overcoming procrastination, destroying stage fright, and making the process of getting on stage your first time an enjoyable experience.

I still don't have my "Comedic Voice" figured out. Will this program still work for me?

Don’t worry! FNF goes in depth and gives you exact steps on how to find your comedic voice. Comedic voice isn’t something you figure out from the sidelines… it’s something that requires experience. Developing your comedic voice is already baked into the FNF course.

I struggle to find time to write. Will this program work for me?

Most of the time, comedians struggle to write simply because they’ve learned a really boring, paint-by-numbers writing system that sucks all the fun out of the comedy writing process. While we can’t magically create more time for you, we can show you how to transform your writing time into something both enjoyable and productive. There are several lessons that deal specifically with overcoming writer’s block and getting the most out of every single writing session.

If I have a question, can I get help?

Yes! We offer free help on any questions about our courses. We also offer email and live coaching if you want specific help on your material.
