Just like any other profession or career, being a professional wedding DJ has its own unique challenges. Every year, the professionals face increased competition and are forced to reduce their price points so they can maintain a full calendar. But price reduction isn’t a viable option for majority of DJs, so, to stand out they need to hone their craft. Here are the three skills that are above all among Australia’s most prosperous DJs.
Adaptability;
Great wedding DJs understand how to read audiences, but the best among them adapt to challenges laid before them too. These could comprise turning down unsuitable song requests, encouraging truly reluctant guests to dance and handling communication gaps when a big part of attending guests speak a different language or have specific cultural customs. The most successful wedding DJs Melbourne can handle all of these and more.
Personality;
High energy levels, fun disposition, a great sense of humour, positive attitude and easy ways with banters are all characteristics of truly successful DJs. But it might be vital to the couple that their personalities, and those of their guests, complement that of the DJ well, since every couple is different. That is why a successful DJ needs to focus on the happy couple during their first meeting. Being a respectful and careful listener is one personality trait anybody can appreciate.
Reliability;
In all industries including DJs, those that can be counted on are always successful. It’s of utmost importance to arrive and set up promptly for all wedding receptions, as it is for every parameter contained in the contract from the fee agreed on, to any special equipment, song requests or activity provided by the couple. You can measure reliability using past agencies and clients who have hired or worked with a particular wedding DJ Melbourne.
