The DJC Recharge (July 2023): What To Expect and Why...

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/04/20

What is the DJ Collective Recharge? Yes, it's different than our annual November event. I sincerely wish there would have been something like this when I was starting off so that I didn't have to ONLY learn from personally making massive mistakes as a DJ owner early on. As a now more "seasoned" company owner, I have come to understand the value of real-time mentorship and still have it in place today. This is for every level of DJ owner/operator. You don't want to pass this up...trust me on this

INTERVIEW: Drew Pierce - Lessons From A Travel DJ

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/04/12

Those that do the "private event" traveling DJ thing for more than a one-off gig or two are rare. Drew Pierce has been in it for a while but since 2020 has really gone "all in". In this interview, I get a chance to talk with him about a lot of different things surrounding this topic - his new booking policy, gear must haves, music he's learned along the way to play in regional locations, travel hacks, and a few hilarious travel gig stories as well.

FAMS and Minis: Networking Redefined

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/04/10

Just got off a week where I went on an invite only FAM trip to Vail, CO and have another invite only FAM I'm attending next month in Martha's Vineyard. If that wasn't enough, I'm hosting my own 'minis' in June and July. Never heard of these things? What I've found over the past year or so is a desire for networking to be more intentional and less surface driven. In this episode, I define these networking event types making the argument that these might just be the future and encourage you to think

Ever been hit up by a travel DJ for gear and don't know what to charge or how to quote?

Package vs Option vs 1 Solution Selling

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/03/28

In the DJ vertical (and the creative space at large), "package" selling is the most predominant type. But do we understand the advantages and disadvantages to this versus "Option" selling and "1 Solution" selling? In this episode, I break down the various types of selling options and give my own endorsement to the one that I feel places the highest expression of creative value. I've never been able to articulate this as clearly as I do in this episode.I'm on YOUTUBE! Please subscribe and share

DJs: Getting Booking Agencies To Understand Your...

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/03/21

Here's a listener requested topic. You're NOT an owner...but a pseudo single-op who gets booked out by booking agents and DMCs. You've done the work to improve who you are and operate differently than when you were first added to the roster. How do you go about having that conversation about the "new you" and your "new rate" with new prospective agents/DMCs as well as the older ones who are booking you now and are used to the "old you" and "old rate"?I'm on YOUTUBE!

On this season of the podcast, from time to time, I will be sharing with you some of the personal tools that I use which I think can help you as a DJ. In this episode, I sit down with my vocal coach, Gerald Isaac. A vocal coach for a DJ? Yeah, I didn't think I would need one either. Now, almost 2 years in of weekly remote (zoom) 1 hour vocal lessons, I've made a 180 - both in terms of my performance being taken to a higher level and with my thoughts that this can be of help (even to a seasoned

Instrumental Music For Corporate And Wedding Events

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/03/06

If ever I had a strength in DJ'ing, it's this...knowing what music to play during the "in between" moments. In my past life, I had to curate songs that went with specific story or subject lines so I became really good at not only knowing WHERE to insert music but WHAT to insert. Whenever people shadow me at events, this is something that gets mentioned often. In this episode (a listener requested topic), I share moments to look for in corporate and wedding events, play you a few sample tracks and

Working With Billionaires

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/02/27

In the last couple years, I've been blessed to punch up in working with high net worth clientele. At the ultra luxury level, there's quite a difference in what those types of clients value and the behavior that needs to go along with it. While I have been able to naturally adjust, I wish I had some of the nuggets I share in this episode without having to have adapted on the fly.

Are You Sharing Stories?

2023/02/23

In a day and age where it's easy to just copy and paste (hello ChatGPT) website verbiage, social media captions or even marketing strategies, how do you stand out? Newsflash: It's not to yell louder or spend more on advertising. It's about going deeper. One of the ways to do this is through story-telling. This isn't new..."story" is a marketing buzz word. But even with it out there, not may people are doing it....or at least not doing it well. In this episode, I talk through not only why it's

Your Bookings: Feast or Famine?

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/02/09

I've had a ton of conversations with DJ company owners recently and unlike previous years where we all were tracking in somewhat the same direction, this year (2023) I'm hearing a lot of companies that are in "feast" mode while a considerable amount of others are in "famine" mode. Why is this? And if your inquiries are minimal, how can you change that? In this episode, I give you 3 reasons that I believe are causing the famine and I also share how you can get to the other side. This is a line in

Travel Hack: How To Score A Poor Man's First Class...

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/02/08

I talk a lot about loyalty to an airline or two (or three). But if travel DJ life is more of a "one off" than the norm, loyalty to a specific airline might not always be possible. I also talk a lot about the need to be well rested and at your most optimal peak-performance self at travel gigs. Without a first class ticket, this might be tough when you're sitting in the back or in the middle seat (or worse, both) with limited or zero recline options (yes, I realize these are first world problems).

Is An EPK Necessary For A Private Event DJ?

How and Why I Get A 75% Deposit Upon Booking

The Travel DJ Blend with DJ Brian B ·

2023/02/03

I've been pretty vocal about the need for me to get a 75% deposit from clients upon booking. This isn't about a money grab - in fact, far from it. In this episode, I break it down to help a DJ who tried to make the shift to this 75% with a client and it caused some pushback from said client. The DJ was looking for advice to counter this and book them. Context is everything.
