Introduction

Wedding DJ is the art and science of creating an atmosphere that will make your event a success. The key to great music and good times is having people who are excited about what you have to offer. In order for this to happen, it’s important that you know how to create a positive environment in which those around you can enjoy themselves as much as they do with their friends or family at home.

In this article, I’m going to share 5 essential qualities of a wedding DJ that you must possess if you want to be successful. These qualities are not only important for any other job in life but also when it comes to being a DJ!

1) Communication Skills:

As DJs, we need to communicate effectively with our audience so they can hear all the wonderful things we’ve done on stage. We need to be able to explain the show from beginning to end without getting bored. This means we need to be able to listen intently and understand what people are saying. It also means that we should always try our best not just to speak, but actually think through what we’re saying before speaking.

2) Performing Skills:

Vancouver DJ needs to be comfortable performing every type of music imaginable; whether it’s pop, rock, country, jazz, or anything else in between. On the business side of things, we need to perform in front of crowds and always try our best to make them happy. It also means that our clothing and personal appearance should be something people admire, not make fun of.

3) Creativity Skills:

A great wedding DJ uses their creative side to come up with really cool mash-ups and cross-tracks. This is what gets people really excited about what’s going on and makes them want to dance all night long! These same skills can be applied to the business side of things by coming up with some really cool ideas to market yourself and your company, as well as creating some great tunes! Just make sure you follow through with your ideas.

4) Dancing Skills:

Now I know what you’re thinking. How could someone who makes a living sitting down actually have any dancing skill? The answer to that question is quite simple: people watch. Whenever you have a moment, watch the people around you and try to dance how they do. You might feel really silly at first, but it’s a really good way to see how you’re doing and adjust accordingly. Not only should you be able to keep a beat, but you should also be able to read the crowd and see what they want to dance to.

5) Community Skills:

For many DJs, being a part of the community is just as important as any of the other parts of the job. It’s important to give back to the community in one way or another. Whether it’s mentoring a new DJ, putting on a free concert every once in a while, or even creating a charity CD to help out hospitals and shelters. Having a good relationship with the community you work in will keep your business thriving for years to come.

As you can see, being a wedding DJ requires more than just having the right music and some technical know-how. It takes enthusiasm, flexibility, dedication and a genuine love for entertaining people. If you have these qualities and are dedicated to the craft of DJing, then I believe anything is possible!

The #1 problem clients face...

As I’m sure you’re aware, we live in a world where people fear commitment. People leave all of their options open, because they’re afraid they might end up loosing out on a future opportunity that might be superior to what is right in front of them.

Yet this way of thinking is wrong… But why?

Because by failure to commit to something, the best options available become unavailable. What we thought was a sure thing, ends up becoming a missed opportunity. Through our deliberate action of inaction, we’re soon presented with second-tier options. Options that you wish you could’ve avoided in the first place. But you’ve already committed to the idea of hiring a DJ, so you end up going through with it anyway, and you choose whoever is available because you don’t want to completely miss out. But you know in your heart it didn’t feel like the right choice. And when the money is spent, and the performance is over, you’re disappointed. And you tell yourself: never again. Yet just like a teenager who claims to never drink again after binge drinking the night before, we end up in a cycle of never committing, and always being stuck with bad alternatives. Deep down inside, we’re unhappy. And we’re left with regret.

Amazing opportunities don't last long.

DJing.ca only performs at 125 corporate events per year,  and performs in front of companies such as McLaren, FlyOver Canada, and ActiveState. As we get more referrals each year, the number of calls & emails continues to grow. 

And with good reason.

Having a 100% satisfaction rate, we keep getting referrals. That’s what happens when you are Vancouver’s best DJs.

I know a lot of other people claim that, but here’s the facts:

We spent an entire year, or 4,000+ hours (yes, we’re work-a-holics) searching through 350 DJs, only to find the top 15 that met our expectations based on personality, experience, and professionalism. If any DJ doesn’t receive a 5/5 star rating from clients (just like yourself), they do not meet the requirements of our contract and can no longer work with us.

And here’s the kicker…

To date we haven’t had to remove anyone.

If you want your event to be truly amazing, don’t hesitate. Fill out the form, we’re here to help. Let’s work together to make your vision come to life.
