FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Each event is priced individually...there isn't a set rate. It really depends on how many services your event requires....how much music, for how long, with or without lighting, live sound mixing, etc. That's why, as mentioned previously, you need to have an idea of what you want if you want an accurate price for your event.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When you hire The Sound Guy to provide DJ and MC services at your party or reception, I will sign a contract with you, & accept a small deposit to reserve your date. I then communicate with you as much as needed in advance of your event to make sure that my services perfectly reflect your vision for the event. This includes email, talking on the phone, meeting in person to view the venue & hearing your ideas. I'm happy to offer help in planning your reception timeline, suggesting ideas for games & special dances, and providing you with options for music selection. If needed, I will also serve as your Master of Ceremonies and work alongside the wedding coordinator & photographer to make sure things run smoothly (or I become the de facto coordinator if you don't have one.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I spent 12 years in broadcasting, a variety of formats. When you’re listening to music, it's all about the mix, how the songs flow together- which is what you learn do professionally in radio.
