200,005 Reasons to Write for Late Night TV

Hi samuel jerome!

I get emails and comments all the time from people asking if they should pursue writing for Late Night TV.

I always answer with a resounding "Yes!" and I have solid reasoning to back it up. In fact I have 200,005 reasons you should pursue writing for Late Night TV.

But before we go there, let's back up for a moment and look at the traditional method people use to prepare for a career.

Most people go to college for 4-5 years, get the skill set they need to work in the career of their choice.

If it’s  a specialty like Doctor or lawyer, they put in an extra few years of law school or med school followed by internship and/or residency.

Now I whole heartedly believe that education is by far the best investment one can make in one's future.

Every single time I invested in learning a new skill set, my resulting revenue skyrocketed.

My sons are in college, just finishing up. One university costs $30,000 annually. The other one $12,000 annually.

That's quite an investment!

According to Forbes, when they graduate they are looking at a starting salary of $42,000 a year.

And that's IF they land a job in their specialty.

It doesn’t take an MIT graduate to realize it’s gonna take a while to make a profit on that investment.

To make matters worse, you're already 4-5 years in on your investment.

Which leads me to my 200,005 reasons to consider writing for Late Night TV:

REASON 1 thru 200,000
According to the Writer's Guild of America, the starting salary for a writer in Late Night is $4,000 per week. Most of these shows are yearly with around 10-12 weeks off. That's over $200,000 a year!

That's base starting pay!

If you write a 2-minute sketch and that gets on the air, you earn another 3,875.00. And if you write a song parody, you get ASCAP fees.

Not bad, but that’s not all...

REASON #200,001
Writing for Late Night TV is still one of the only jobs in the industry where you can get hired without experience and without a resume! You just have to show that you can write funny. That’s how I got my job writing for the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and how a lot of guys I know got their jobs.

REASON #200,002
The cost of the investment in the education to get the skills for Late Night TV writing is microscopic compared to traditional career preparation. I learned the skill set by studying with some of the top writers in the business. They showed me the process to write jokes and I turned it into several processes that ensured that I could sit down and produce 80-120 jokes from scratch every single day. Even on the days where I wasn't "feelin' it."

REASON #200,003
Access to this education used to only be available in L.A. or New York. Until now.
I've put together an online video course that will get you cranking out Late Night jokes like a machine. It's a systematic process that takes the guessing out of joke writing and helps you surpass the competition. So now, wherever you are, you can develop the skillset to write for Late Night TV you have no excuse not to dive in, get the skills and start submitting for a Late Night Writing job.

REASON #200,004
One thing they don't teach you in college is the secret behind getting the job in your career, but I will walk you through the simple secret of how to submit and how to find the right person to submit to and how to find out specifically what a particular show looks for in a submission packet.

REASON #200,005
For a limited time I'm launching this course and making it available to you at a 66 percent off the regular price. And when I say a limited time, I mean like 5 days limited! The Late Night TV Comedy Writing and Submission Course Online will never be available at this price again.

So there are your 200,005 reasons you should pursue a job in writing for Late Night TV.

Go get the course. Go get the job!

Rock n Roll!

P.S. When I decided to apply the same time to studying my Late Night Writing as I was putting into school, it was only 18 months later when I landed a job writing comedy in Late Night TV at the The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Think about it; only 18 months!

While I know my college wasn't a waste of time, I wish I would've focused on what I love a lot earlier. How about you?
