FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Standard rates are typically $400 an hour for local gigs (Spokane/Coeur d'Alene) for the 1st 4 hours for any wedding and debatably for gigs out of town. If it’s a corporate event, private party, etc then the rates are based on where the event is and how many guests and duration of event. Everything is debatably and most of the pricing is determined by length of engagement, distance traveled, how much prep work has to go into the event & how much gear is required or do it. If we have to travel a long distance and if there is over-night accommodations, say for things like destination weddings. Discounts for all branches of the Military, M.T.F.U. members.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to let them know what all we do to make there event a success. I like to keep all correspondence through Thumbtack and than a meet & greet somewhere of their convenience to sign contracts and go over details of there event. Maybe a venue check if it is at a place that I’ve have never done or haven’t been to in a real long time. I really try to give people as much as I can to make their event look amazing, sound amazing and be as memorable as possible without the customer having to do anything other then enjoying themselves!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My education has all been based on my life experiences in the business of music in one way, shape or form or another. After more than decades of being a musician who can actually play an instrument, other then just 2 turntables, DJing, hosting, emceeing and promoting thousands of events and over 700 weddings myself. I feel I continue to educate myself with each new event, each customer has different tastes and needs and there is always new music everyday to listen to.
