Howdy,
When you move......how do you establish yourself in the new town/state...and so on.....
Send out fliers.....
Do some "free" shows.....
Get listed in the Phone book as soon as possible......
Start in Bars or go with Private Parties only........
I just moved and I have gone to local establishments and passed out cards and references. No calls yet.....I'm ready to go out and do some "free stuff" just to get people to see me and what my DJ/KJ business can do.
I think there are alot of low quality shows in the area (South Central Valley, CA.). There are also good shows. I have been to many of the first kind. No telling what price they get a night. I had been a KJ/DJ for 8 years in another state. I am not going to go into a place unless the pay is good. I will not do a 4 hour show for $50.00 (One guy gets paid this:f )......Nope....just can't do it. Am I wrong for thinking this way?? Should I rethink it??
Your Thoughts On This?????
