FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Yes. $100 an hour of service. No charge for set up and take down time. My service packages include: Ceremony & Reception ~ $800 (up to 8 hours of service) Reception or Special Event ~ $500 (up to 5 hours of service)
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Making initial contact in a friendly way, answering questions, and getting clear on availability and price. Once the new customer feels comfortable that I am a good fit for their event, I send a packet that includes a little more information about me, important questions to consider in advance of the event, and a reservation deposit form. Once the $100 deposit is received, I confirm that date with the customer. Once they have completed the packet I like to sit down or talk on the phone in advance of the event to be sure we are on the same page with music and important details. Day of, I arrive early to set up and check in with my contact and/or the event organizer. I bring my "A-game" to the event, help everyone have a great time, and receive payment. I follow up with a thank you and invitation to review my services:)
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Speech Communication, worked at several radio stations for more than seven years, and was trained by a very successful DJ in my hometown of Portland, Oregon.
