Are John’s shows 100% clean and appropriate for a corporate audience?
Yes. John’s show is completely clean — no offensive language, nothing that could put your name on the line. He knows you don’t need to swear to get big laughs. His goal is simple: everyone in the audience should leave thanking you for booking him, and you should look like the star of the evening.
How far in advance should we book John?
There’s no wrong time to ask. Some prime dates get booked two or more years out; other events book with just a week or two of notice. Tell us your date and we’ll tell you if John’s available — no obligation.

Does John require a minimum audience size?

Is the show interactive?
Yes — completely. John works the stage and moves right into the audience itself. Everyone feels like part of the show, and everyone is treated with total respect, on stage and off.
Will John meet guests afterward for photos or autographs?

Can we book John for more than one presentation in a day?
Yes. John offers single-presentation, half-day, and full-day rates. Need someone to also host your session or introduce your CEO and award winners? He can do that too.
Where does John travel from?
Michigan, typically flying out of Detroit Metro Airport (DTW) — or from wherever he’s performing just before your event. A flat travel fee is available if you’d rather not book his flight directly.
How many hotel nights does John need?
We recommend flying John in the night before and out the morning after — two nights total. This keeps him well-rested and gives him a buffer if flights are delayed. If the event isn’t at a hotel, book his room at the same hotel as your guests for easy transportation to the venue.
What does John charge?
John’s appearance fee starts at $7,597 plus expenses. Custom quotes are available for international events or unique needs, and half-day and full-day rates apply if you need more than one presentation.
