Has anyone had any success using 800dj.com?

I've had no success as a free member. I received one "booking" but the client cancelled a month later (a long story). I am going to try the upgraded paid membership for a couple of months to see whether contacting the potential clients personally may be more successful.

Donny,
Don't hold your breath. This is not a good website for leads. Most are very much price shopping and 800dj customer service is horrific at best.

I will try to find the thread we discussed them on later.

There is a free place you can list yourself as well. http://www.djworldchat.com has a area where DJ's from around the world can list their companies. Now how it works for getting bookings, I could not tell you. I do however see on my site tracker that I do get as many site visits from that site as I do from say WEDJ.com.

In our area (California)... 1-800 DJ is a joke!

Hi Donny,
I too have never really gotten anything from them. As a paid member or free member. Really disappointing.....

I just pulled my next contract for an event booked via 1-800DJ

March 14, 2004
Kissimee FL
3 hours
$1140.00 to the DJ (me)
1-nights lodging at the Peabody included
meals & beverage - included

I have had several bookings from them.... I've turned down more than I've accepted but it's not bad for free and it does not hurt to be included. I'm sure allot of clients price shop but that's no different what I get locally.

I have no problem with them at all...

Yeah Jim. That had this program that was set-up to be client direct. It never worked.. Biggest waste of money
