Are Mobile DJ's good business men and women?

[dj bill]

This is something that I have been asking myself and other mobile DJs that I network with...

Are mobile DJ's as a whole good business people?

This stems from thinking about all the different hats that a sole operator DJ service needs to wear...DJ, Salesman, Marketing, Accountant, Promoter, etc)

Is it a good business model to assume that one person can do it all? Would it not be smarter to partner with people or to outsource specific things or do mobile DJs feel like that it is theres and all theres and I cannot outsource it since others will not do it or see it the way I do. (I am speaking from my own experience here!)

I know where my strengths and weaknesses are...I also know that for years I have thought I am an excellent business man but as I look back at my DJ shows I seem to wonder if I really even treat my mobile DJ business AS a business.

I am not looking for answers....just wondering what other people think. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and views.

Peace,

DJ Bill
