Did u think about why they would give you such a book? Not to sound rude, or make it sound like i know it all, but the reason is answered simply. Its right in front of your face and you don't even realize it. Figured it out yet?!?! NO of course not. The reason I feel it is becuase you are TRIPLE the price of the original DJ.Hmmm...Make sense now?!?!? Think about the economy guys and gals and price accordingly. If you can't deal with taking the cuts then find another job and don't complain about it because you can't raise your prices when everyone else is or else you get no business...We have been through this before and this is common sense for anyone who owns a business. C'mon loosen up and figure it out. Drop your prices, get more business...
Heres something else....I have notice most DJ's are just out there for the money. All they care about is money, money, money. Wake up people. If you're a DJ you can't just be out there for the money. If you want more business you gotta be more sympathetic and drop your prices. Would you rather have more business and more money. Or less business and less money. This seems reverse doesn't it? Well duh, of course. Realize the fact that if you do one party for lets say 500 and normalyl you would charge 650 at a good economic time period, and you did two parties at the rate of five hundred then you have now just satisfied double the number of people, doubled your potential clientel and gotten your name out there twice as much. However you took the three hundred dollar cut in pay. But really...would you rather see double the people go home happy and say, Damn, that guy was aweomse! or just that one party going home and saying that?!?!? Seems to me that I would rather have double the number of people. Again, think about the economy and adjust your prices accordingly, if you can't afford it do it any wayz and find another side job. You have to face the fact that you will not always be able to be the dj who makes the most every time. It's hard to take the cut but if you look at the way we're doing business, we have booked double the amount of parties since we have kept our prices low. Think about it and adjust for the last time. Thnx.
Jim, I don't mean to make this sound 'rude' or aimed at you like you're some stupid, ignorant, rude DJ but more as something to take into consideration. I am sure you were great, but at TRIPLE the price. C'mon man. Figure it out....Its not all about the darn money, its about keeping people happy, like you have stated in other forums. Stand by wut you say, not saying that they didn't have a good time, but from the way you put it and the gift you got, it seems like they definately were not happy about your pricing.
