Hiring the Right DJ/MC and Entertainment
Hiring the right entertainment is probably the most important decision for the successful outcome of your event! So how do you find the right entertainment? Some people view DJ's as a commodity and choose the cheapest one they can find, not knowing there are differences to look for. I've heard numerous horror stories of DJ companies that lure in customers with low prices, only to provide an inexperienced disc jockey with poor people skills, an inferior music library, poor equipment, and they either arrive late or don't show at all! This page will help you find the right entertainer! It could make the difference between a memorable event and an unforgettable nightmare!
Do You Provide A Written Agreement?
It is very important to confirm your booking in writing. Terms should be clearly defined to avoid future problems.
Are you Insured?
Be confident that the DJ you hire will show up for your affair. Insurance will give security & protection to your guests, as well as the DJ, and his expensive gear. Plus, most venues require all event specialists to carry insurance.
Who will be showing up?
Both the owners of Spin 360 Entertainment work with children on a daily basis and both have Ohio/Kentucky background and FBI checks.
Do You Have Backup Equipment and Entertainers?
Even professional audio equipment can fail on occasion; don't let this put an early end to your affair. Make sure there is backup equipment and be sure there are back-up entertainers should an emergency or case of illness occur.
Is Your Equipment of Professional Quality?
There is a difference between home audio and professional road-worthy equipment. The equipment a DJ uses should be built to go on the road each and every day!
Will You Listen To My Music Suggestions?
Many DJ's are of the opinion that they know what music is best for their audience and won't take requests. The DJ should listen to requests and play them whenever appropriate.
Will You Dress Appropriately at My Affair?
It is important that your entertainer look the part by dressing formal or semi-formal, according to your preference. Themed events and picnics require different attire.
Will You Play The Music At An Appropriate Level?
The biggest concern voiced by prospective clients is the volume level of the music. A professional DJ knows how to keep the volume at a level appropriate for the guests, especially during cocktails and the dinner hour.
Do You Do More Than Just Play Music at the Affair?
Most affairs involve more than playing music. It is important to have a team of entertainers who are capable of playing the music, handling all of the announcements and helps to coordinate the affair.
Will You Listen to My Concerns and Input?
A professional entertainer is aware that they can't possibly know every aspect of music and entertainment. Your input and suggestions should be welcome; and they are most certainly welcome with Spin 360 Entertainment.
Conclusion
It is important to find an entertainment company that says yes to the above questions. Experience & quality are the most important factors in hiring your entertainment. You will never be sorry when you invest in quality.
