So I'm going to speak from my personal experiences, as well as what I've learned from other fellow industry professionals. I'd love to hear your comments and feedback, as well. Let's discuss these,... [read more]

Social Distancing Tips for DJs[/caption]
Social distancing. It's a new term that is basically all you may be hearing about, lately. Regardless of how you feel about the current Covid-19 pandemic, you are likely impacted by all of this.

Dealing With Criticism
March 6, 2020 by Michael Cordeiro
No one wants it. Nobody likes it. We all dread it but everyone needs it now and then. Criticism. Is it a litany of stinging words that knock you right off your pedestal of awesomeness or just a dose of reality? That depends mainly on you and your tolerance for hard truth.

February 8, 2020 by Michael Cordeiro
It's always nice to get a referal friends or previous clients. I always feel good to see my company name tossed into the ring for an upcoming event. Like most towns we have a few local Facebook group pages where people can ask for recommendations for services. I'm always amazed at how quickly these posts go from a courteous "We'd love to help with your event" to a used car salesman pitch of, "Pick me pick me -we're better and cheaper than everybody else".
Recently someone was looking to hire a DJ for a graduation party. People started to drop names and emphatically proclaim the greatness of their referral. I was unpleasantly surprised to learn just how many DJ's in my area are "The best around" or have the biggest library and best sound system( granted some of the referals are friends of mine and very good...
