So who exactly did you hire to DJ your important event? The truth is you have no idea. I’m about to give you an example of an internet ad for a DJ Company looking for DJs on the internet because they overbooked yet again during a busy season and they’ve run out of DJs. Or get this, the “good” DJs took the “good” gigs, and yours doesn’t qualify, nor does it pay as much for you to get a “good DJ”. So you get the beginner instead. Anyway, the ad says:“Top notch DJ Company is looking to fill positions. You must have a lot of energy and must be good with people. You will host and DJ events all over Colorado…blah, blah, blah.”Do you you know who they’re looking for? Well, they are hoping for someone, anyone who will accept $8.00 an hour to DJ your important event, your Prom, your Wedding, your kid's 8th Birthday so they, the DJ Company, can make more money. You ask why should it matter how much the DJ is making? Well, glad you asked. The average school Prom DJ, for example, will cost you anywhere from $600.00 to $2,500 depending on what kind of light and sound system the DJ company is providing. That is nearly all profit for the DJ Company, well, except the $24 bucks he has to pay a DJ he got for you by putting a blind ad on a random website. Do you think that DJ making $8.00 an hour will go out of their way to make sure you have a good time when they are making peanuts compared to what the DJ Company is getting? What does that new DJ have to gain, another gig for $24 bucks in a week? Also, I wonder, did the DJ company do a background check on this DJ they hired for you, not only as a precaution, but as a service to you? Can you see personal references on the DJ they are providing for you? Does theDJ Companyeven know the person they’ve hired for you? By the end of the night, you may know the DJ more than the company who hired them. By that time it may be too late. It’s scary. You have everything to lose, including your money. When you are ready to hire a name you know, a name you can trust, and a professional who has an outstanding reputation in the community, please contact me. If you have a moment, please read the testimonials on my website and see why I am the DJ for you. Thank you so much for reading my blogs. Sincerely, Rob Ryan.
