Creating Mobile DJ Business Cards That Work

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 21:20:32 +0000

If you want to make money as a mobile DJ, sooner or later you will need to create business cards. That's a fact of life and you cannot avoid it. But there is one thing you want to avoid at all costs - creating bland cards that get zero attention, zero clients, and zero profits. This article will show you exactly what you need to create a successful business card for your mobile DJ venture.

Keep it simple or you will most likely end up with a failure of a biz card. The only exception to the rule is if your design is very tailored to your image and business. For instance, if you can print your contact info on a "biz card CD," that could be effective. Those are the CD's that are shaped like business cards. But in most cases, you will only succeed in wasting your money on a fancy looking piece of trash.

Using Myspace To Promote Your DJ Business

A social marketing site like Myspace has members who share various networks and communities to stay in touch with each other. Finding a community that has people specifically interested in music or even DJing can be quite easy. You can effectively become a member of such a community for free and effectively participate in the discussions with the other members. Directly marketing your business on social media sites is never a good idea, though. Hence it is best if you become an active member and every once in a while refer to your business or the latest events you are hosting to get the other members interested in you.

Using MySpace is, I think a very good idea. As a DJ, you will be able to invite people to be friends/fans of what you do. This will get like minded people to start talking about YOU. You will then find that you will gather quite a following.

This also a great and easy way of letting all your fans know what you are doing, forming friendships with then and gaining trust and letting them know when and where you will be playing next.

How To Run A DJ Business

Almost anybody can start a DJ business for under £1000 and a little bit of time. Here’s what you need to know:

Let’s start with equipment. This is what people tend to believe is most important in the DJ business. Not true. DJ’s have a wide variety of equipment options, and you will rarely see 2 guys/gals running the same setup. Basically, you will need speakers, a power source, and a sound source. Lights are optional, so we won’t even cover that here.
