Who We Are A little about us
Recognizing that there was an untapped market for comedic entertainment in Mississippi is what prompted Elton Pope to form Carpe Diem Management Group, LLC, back on April 7, 2011.
We began by hosting shows for small audiences in venues such as casinos in Vicksburg, Mississippi. Slowly, we began to build up an audience on social media because it was free marketing and advertising and it was also when we linked up with budding artists who were posting viral videos showcasing their talents for making people laugh by shining a light on the everyday lives of people we can all identify with – family members, neighbors, friends and just your everyday trifling person on social media. We scouted talent based on the number of likes and shares they were receiving. Eventually, their names began to buzz in the ears of our community of followers and they became a person of interest that we needed to check out. We would eventually meet and arrange some small shows for them to perform and begin honing their skills and getting a taste of real laughter, real successes and failures and even sometimes, real money.
