HIRING OF A DJ
THE HIRING OF A DJ IS AS IMPORTANT AS MANY OTHER DECISIONS YOU WILL
MAKE IN YOUR LIFE. IT RANKS UP THERE WITH TURNING 16, POPPING THE
QUESTION, GETTING MARRIED AND EVEN HIRING A LAWYER. AS SILLY AS SOME
OF THIS MAY SOUND TO YOU JUST THINK OF HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO HAVE
THE PERFECT ATMOSPHERE FOR YOUR AFFAIR.
THE TABLES ARE SET, THE GUESTS ARE INVITED, THE FOOD IS PREPARED BUT
YOU HAVE HIRED A LESS THAN QUALIFIED DJ. THE ONLY WAY TO KNOW THAT
YOU ARE ACTUALLY GETTING “WHAT YOU PAID FOR” IS TO KNOW THE DJ’S
BACKGROUND, YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, COMMITMENT TO QUALITY,
PROFESSIONALISM AND BEING ABLE TO HEAR THEM BEFORE YOU HIRE THEM.
OF COURSE, THIS IS JUST A SHORT LIST OF WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN YOUR
SEARCH BUT IT’S A START.
UNLIKE MANY OTHER DJ’S AND DJ COMPANIES, I BELIEVE THAT WHEN YOU
HIRE A DJ FOR YOUR SPECIAL EVENT/DAY, YOU ARE THE BOSS. AS A YOUNG
CHILD I WAS INSPIRED BY A GREAT RADIO ANNOUNCER, DON WILSON, WHO
TOLD ME “TO BE THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS, ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT YOU
ARE HERE TO PLAY MUSIC THAT THE PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR NOT WHAT YOU
WANT TO HEAR.” HE ALSO TOLD ME TO KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE WILL ALWAYS
BE SOME ONE OUT THERE THAT IS BETTER THAN ME AND TO STRIVE TO MAKE
MYSELF BETTER THAN THEM. THIS WILL ALWAYS KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES TO
KEEP YOU COMMITTED TO THE PEOPLE AND THE MUSIC. I HAVE ALWAYS LIVED
BY THOSE RULES AND HAVE BEEN RATED NUMBER 1 IN MY FIELD FOR MANY
YEARS WHILE IN RADIO.
WHEN I AM HIRED FOR YOUR SPECIAL DAY OR EVENT I PUT MY OVER 27 YEARS
OF EXPERIENCE TO WORK. I DO NOT HIDE MY PROFESSIONALISM OR
EXPERIENCE WITH PARTY FAVORS, MARQUEE SIGNS OR EVEN PARTY PLANNING.
I AM A DJ/RADIO ANNOUNCER/MC NOT A PARTY STORE, A SIGN SHOP OR A
PARTY PLANNER. JUST THE SAME IF YOU WERE TO HIRE A BAND, THEY WOULD
NOT BE SUPPLYING THE PARTY FAVORS AND SUCH. I CAN, HOWEVER, HELP
WITH GUIDELINES FOR WEDDING RECEPTIONS, BIRTHDAYS, PARTIES AND
EVENTS.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN YOU HIRE A DJ THAT
YOU DO GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. BUT UNDERSTAND THIS: PRICE ALWAYS
DOESN'T QUALITY. THERE ARE COMPANIES THAT WILL CHARGE YOU AN ARM
AND A LEG AND PROVIDE YOU WITH PARTY FAVORS, PARTY PLANNER AND
EVERYTHING BUT IS THE DJ REALLY QUALIFIED? THEIR COMPANY MAY HAVE
BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR 20 YEARS BUT HOW LONG HAS THEIR DJ BEEN IN THE
FIELD? TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ME, LOOK UNDER MY BIO PAGE.
