There
are a number of things to bear in mind when you choose a Disc jockey
service.
SIZE
OF THE SERVICE:
Many Disc Jockey services are geared to run multiple units and to
provide entertainment at numerous functions at a time. Some even
offer the services of more than one DJ at an event as an incentive
to use them. Others operate only one unit and focus on one event
at a time. The advantage Abundant Sounds offers is in the service.
Unlike many of the large providers you will be interacting with
the person who is performing the event, and who owns the business.
My goal is to provide you with the service and professional touch
you need to make your event a memorable one. If personal touch is
important then the large impersonal services may not be the way
to go.
EXPERIENCE:
Does the Disc Jockey performing the event have the experience necessary?
Many people make the mistake of thinking that a Disc Jockey acts
as a technician and just plays the music. Nothing could be further
removed from the truth. Knowledge about music, and an ability to
interact with the crowd, along with a detailed understanding of
the art of being an MC is a good start. However, the truly professional
Disc Jockey, also keeps the event on schedule and takes care of
behind the scenes events with the photographer and banquet people.
In addition to this, an experienced Disc Jockey needs to have detailed
knowledge of the equipment being used, and how to do emergency repairs
if that ever becomes necessary. Because Abundant Sounds is owner
operated, and comes with an extensive experience record, the customer
need never worry about who they will get as a Disc Jockey or whether
the Disc Jockey has the experience necessary to do the event.
GETTING
THE RIGHT DJ:
Some services will do the event but will not commit to which the
Disc Jockey will be there. Others will sub contract a Disc Jockey
to do your wedding or event. There are even occasions when the couple
has never met the Disc jockey until the day of the event. At Abundant
Sounds you don’t have to worry about who your Disc Jockey
will be or whether they will available to speak to you. Every wedding
or function includes a meeting with the Disc Jockey to go over the
plans and details. Phone calls are returned promptly and you will
not have to deal with any office staff.
EMERGENCY
BACKUP:
Does the Disc Jockey service have quality equipment and a backup
system if there is an equipment malfunction? A service may send
a Disc Jockey to the event without any backup equipment in the event
of an emergency. Others do but have Disc Jockeys that do not have
the technical know how to fix the problem if it is complex. A service
may use inferior sound equipment that will not deliver a good crisp
clean sound. The best way to avoid an equipment failure is to be
prepared for one. Abundant Sounds uses top quality equipment, and
carries spare equipment to every event. The Disc Jockey has extensive
knowledge of all the aspects of the equipment and sound equalization.
VALUE
FOR THE MONEY:
Because you are paying the most for the service does not mean you
will get the best there is for your money. Many factors go into
determining the price for an event. Services that provide corporate
offices and unnecessary benefits are likely to have to charge more
to cover their expenses. Those services where there are multiple
layers of people between you and the Disc Jockey are also generating
higher expenses. Cheap equipment or inexperienced staff are ways
some people can cut expenses. At Abundant Sounds there are no unnecessary
overheads or layers of people that drive the cost of the event up.
This is done without compromising the quality service and professional
performance you can expect. The savings are passed on to you. Why
pay more those things that can be avoided. Better to have the money
to spend on other important items that you need to make your event
a memorable success.
