allowing them to feel very much part of every detail no matter how big or small is key.
#3 Always strive to meet or exceed client expectations. Setting high goals for even the shortest of parties can only help you give the best possible performance. #4 Always let the client know that you care about the success of the event and how honored you are to be part of the celebration. The 5th thing can’t be taught. You must be sincere in all that you do from beginning to end. If you are not, this too will come through in your performance. I walk it like I talk it--there is no other way to be.
How do I separate myself from other DJ’s?: All things equal, DJ’ing is 20% music 70% personality and 10% microphone or stage presence. I know without a doubt that I separate myself from other DJ’s in the way that I sound. I have been told on many occasions that I have this great radio voice. This doesn’t mean that I don’t still have to work hard to create the perfect party, but this fact gives me a natural advantage over some entertainers. Some would argue that this little detail doesn’t matter but there are occasions that you want the best sounding MC to run your event. I only hope that when it’s time to choose an entertainment company, you choose Signature DJs, and when selecting a specific DJ, you consider the Vince Perkins experience. You won’t be disappointed.
he rewards: The biggest compliment, accolade, praise, etc. that can ever be bestowed on a DJ is a follow-up letter (unsolicited) from a client. I’ve had many experiences in 12 years but recently there was one that reminded me that bringing joy to someone’s life is priceless. When meeting with the client at their home going over our worksheets, I remember asking the bride-to-be how she would like to be introduced. Right on queue she began to cry. I realized at that moment that she was so excited about marrying this young man that just the thought of being introduced as his wife brought her to tears of joy. I knew that my involvement in their wedding had to be flawless. A week later I received an email from the bride specifically taking me through events at the wedding that meant so much to her. Even as she composed the email she couldn’t help but “tear up” again, she wrote. What a Signature DJ moment. That’s what this is all about. I hope to be part of your next event.
