00:00.091 --> 00:03.272
[SPEAKER_00]: Make sure you have your systems in place, make them reputable.
00:03.633 --> 00:11.316
[SPEAKER_00]: So contract in place, pricing sheets, booking process, because again, you can have someone, you can call you randomly.
00:11.656 --> 00:14.897
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you don't have your prices intact, man, you can lowball yourself.
00:15.237 --> 00:20.520
[SPEAKER_00]: You're like, name a number that, yo, you really don't even charge system out, or maybe it's way too high.
00:20.580 --> 00:22.700
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, maybe you got nervous and said something.
00:23.041 --> 00:24.301
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's not even what you charge.
00:24.501 --> 00:28.243
[SPEAKER_00]: That you deviated exactly from what your company charges, or you went too low.
00:28.883 --> 00:36.949
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, have a booking process, also follow what clients, Bill Klein templates, stay organized and approach it for that.
00:37.069 --> 00:41.572
[SPEAKER_00]: If someone messes you today to book, try to lock them in within ten minutes.
00:41.953 --> 00:48.878
[SPEAKER_00]: If not, fifteen, twenty, but stay consistent with that potential lead or potential client.
00:49.178 --> 00:50.519
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, let's, you know,
00:50.929 --> 00:53.271
[SPEAKER_00]: DJs, this is all possible.
00:53.612 --> 00:55.093
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just going to take work.
00:55.474 --> 00:58.056
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you really want something, you're going to put the work in.
00:58.377 --> 00:59.558
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, let's get to the hard truth.
01:00.018 --> 01:00.599
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, Jane.
01:00.939 --> 01:05.323
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it definitely can be a full time job for some people.
01:05.684 --> 01:11.550
[SPEAKER_00]: It may not be a full time job because maybe they're not willing to build something bigger than just the music.
01:11.870 --> 01:13.532
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't make some people don't have it in them.
01:13.872 --> 01:14.212
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:14.453 --> 01:19.797
[SPEAKER_00]: But remember, music brings people together, make sure your systems are going to bring people back.
01:20.137 --> 01:23.000
[SPEAKER_00]: And then your Brandon is going to make you premium.
01:23.340 --> 01:23.940
[SPEAKER_00]: Big time.
01:24.001 --> 01:25.282
[SPEAKER_00]: People are going to want to work with you.
01:25.482 --> 01:25.862
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:26.242 --> 01:27.503
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's going to keep you gay again.
01:27.624 --> 01:29.625
[SPEAKER_00]: Not just the weekend's weekdays.
01:29.966 --> 01:32.428
[SPEAKER_00]: And also keep the cash flow coming.
01:32.788 --> 01:33.148
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:33.448 --> 01:36.331
[SPEAKER_00]: So DJs make sure you start building something that works for you.
01:36.731 --> 01:38.052
[SPEAKER_00]: And that doesn't drain you.
01:38.353 --> 01:38.713
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:38.873 --> 01:40.815
[SPEAKER_00]: Because remember, your journey is a DJ.
01:41.402 --> 01:43.023
[SPEAKER_00]: Doesn't have to be just a hobby.
01:43.203 --> 01:43.543
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:43.903 --> 01:47.044
[SPEAKER_00]: This can be a full time job.
01:47.204 --> 01:47.584
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:47.884 --> 01:50.285
[SPEAKER_00]: And even if it is a hobby, there's no shame in that.
01:50.505 --> 01:55.967
[SPEAKER_00]: But at the end of the day, you gotta put the work in if you want to career of being a DJ.
01:56.407 --> 01:58.648
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not just not that easy.
01:58.968 --> 02:02.229
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just not going to fall in your lap at the end of the day.
02:02.309 --> 02:02.649
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
02:03.009 --> 02:10.732

02:11.200 --> 02:14.261
[SPEAKER_00]: If any of this hits home, DJs feel free.

02:15.401 --> 02:19.662

[SPEAKER_00]: So we can level up DJs.
02:29.064 --> 02:35.505
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the beginner DJs part time DJs level them up behind beyond the booth and get on full time.
02:36.053 --> 02:40.856
