What to know BEFORE
you hire a DJ/MC
The first question that most DJ's get when they are called is, "How much do you charge?" while price is a main factor in most peoples choice for a DJ other factors should be considered. Please read below to get an idea of what other factors may matter to you.
-Company should be a full-time business as opposed to a weekend hobby.
-Company should own all of its equipment and hire and train its own DJs. A Lot of companies send
out DJ's that have very little experience and may ruin your event.
You are hiring a professional personality not just renting a sound system.
-DJ's should play the music
YOU want to hear, be flexible and take requests.
-Company should be available via a Toll Free # at reasonable business hours.
-Company should have top of the line professional sound & light gear. Pioneer,
JBL, Cerwin Vega, Martin and Mackie, these are the brands we use, as opposed
to entry level hobbyist gear such as Gemini, Numark, Peavey, and MTX).
-Company should be fully insured.
-Company should have all backup gear on site. (We bring extra amplifiers, CD
players, microphones, mixers, & cables.)
-DJ's should be neat, clean, and appropriately dressed as you see fit. (Our
Wedding & Corporate DJ's wear black tuxedoes.)
-DJ's should arrive at least one hour prior to your event. (We typically arrive
1.5 - 2 hours before the scheduled start time.)
