DJ Marketing! Want Shows and Influence? Try this.. 

Another DJ and I approached a bar owner offering to put on a weekly Wednesday night. We kept the door takings and he was more than pleased with his hugely increased mid-week drinks revenue. That night ran for 5 years and led to many other engagements. It’s always worth putting ideas forward.

Hey would love to see a vid about orgainising events how to convince pubs and other locations to accept my events? Are percentage of sales deals on the table for these kind of things to the place doesnt see a huge risk if it fails wouldnt want to seem like an ameteur trying to plan an event.

I was thinking about organzing my own events. Would be grateful to hear how we could do plan for the events, how to talk to venues, promoters, and DJs...etc Thank you!

This is just the kick in the ass i needed to start looking for ways to organize events. It just makes sense, and most in line with how i studied marketing, and how it should be applied to DJing. Marketing by definition starts with the process of creating value for your stakeholders (people and clubs, promoters, venue owners), and the most naturat way to do that in this business is by organizing events. This is sober and the truth that most DJs wont tell you! Thanks for the insight always appreciated your videos. I wish you all the success!

Only found you a week or 2 ago. Have binge watched a load of your vids. What a great guy you come across as - type you could sit and chill with for hours and crack about anything and everything. Keep going 👍

Each video you do, here and in your course, is a real eye-opener. Thanks Andrew !

I'd love to see a video on organizing events!

Me and couple of my friends are in the same college and me as a dj wanted to do something for Halloween. 2 other of friends of mine decided to launch a platform that will allow upcoming dj’s to find gig’s through. Our first event is in Halloween and we have 4 dj’s lined up -including me-. We talked with my friends father to use his bar. Anyways, this video motivated me even more and thanks to you it will be my first official event that I will be doing!

Thanks Andrew, as humble & inspirational as ever. I'm sure this attitude can be used on other aspects of our lives as well. Thanks again.

Only criticism is that living in the middle of a 1st world metropolitan city (London) , it’s not economically or practically feasible to just ‘put on an event’ unless you already have a large network of friends or you can afford to pay upfront and bio another act with pull.

Thanks Andrew!) Love your message and ways you share your wisdom) I concider you to be one of my mentors. Got to point where I'm actually arganized a party, happen kind of by itself - remember watching your vids about own parties 2 years ago and was just terrified))) Anyway, thanks a lot! Much love)))

Hey Andrew - would definitely enjoy a video on running promo ads (especially for events) on socials!

So sad I'm seeing this after 2 years you've posted it. I'm frm Nigeria. Would like to get my name out there too cos Im ready now. But going to local bars around me tp help them will also cost me some money too. Most bars n clubs here don't have good speakers. Will see what to do if I could confuse anyone of the owners around

I THINK YOU TOUCHED 2 KEY POINTS: 1) THE MOST POWERFUL SOURCE OF "REAL" VISIBILITY CAMES FROM MAKING OPPORTUNITIES FOR OTHERS 2) THE WAY TO FIND THE DIRECTION OF YOUR ACTIONS IS TO SYNC YOURSELF TO THE FREQUENCIES OF YOUR DREAM

I’m a Dj and just launch my own club night weekly and I can use some help with creating bette content and any helpful tips

😊 Thanks, would love to play a set with you, im in Adelaide SA

I would love to see more videos about organizing events! Thanks for the awesome content!! :D

make a name first or people will follow you only to get free pass, or cover free parties..

So I've been djing since 2008, but about a month ago, I decided to step back from DJing social events because I wanted to practice and perfect my style. I've been on the fence about taking your course, but I've finally decided that it's probably the best next step for me before I return to the scene as a dj. Thanks for your videos man, they've definitely helped me prepare for some of my most important bookings in my career. See you in class soon ✌❤

You have amazing energy man! Haha ❤

people who love are also mostly successful

Can I have more info on how to plan an event?

This is genius

Great video, me and a mate actually ran our first event a month ago in London and it was a really valuable learning experience. We also have a monthly radio show where we invite other DJ’s for interview and let them showcase their own style, we found it’s a rly good way of making connections with local artists at a similar or higher level. Would rly appreciate another video on how to build a following for a night/club event and any lessons you’ve learnt from your years of experience in running events

I need your help

Thank you

Hello need your help

🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦

I just rebranded myself and i"m starting from scratch on another project. This is exactly what I needed.

Yes do a video about start to Finnish putting on an event

Thank you so much for your positive energy and your honesty about the approach, creativity, and a sense of service that comes along with being a DJ, Im a new DJ trying to figure out, like how you just said, "How Do I get my name out there?". I think you've just shown me its about getting out their and not about getting your name out there. Thanks again ! I HOPE TO COME ACROSS MORE OF YOUR CONTENT ALONG MY JOURNEY! I also really appreciated how you summed up DJing to be a way for you to play music FOR people and to share YOUR PARTICULAR sound! Great analysis.

Andrew, how did you do it on your first events, were you headlining yourself? How would you go about setting up a DJ line up if you're yourself doing an event or party? Thanks man I'm a student of the course and always following the vids 🤘🏼

Wonderful, valuable insights. Thank you.

I also would be greatful for a demographcs targeted ad tutorial for starting my own event. love ur videos, always gets me pumped to dj!

Good tips. I also think that we need to synchronize on the frequencies of our objectives

My fist underground experience was in a warehouse with three sections and 6 djs, I gave one a ride home and he had people waiting at his house he invited for a private afterparty that he spun till daylight, while collecting people from the big party. My area is a hard rock scene with heavy metal underground house clubs scattered around neighborhoods.

❤🎉❤🎉

this is exactly the path with im going!! so would be really intressted, hearing u talking more about the event thing. for me its all about the passion and u can just feel its, i love this energy!!! soo id love too hear u talking more over this!!

Great video Andrew, love your vibe and that you kinda teach the love for the culture really appreciated that and looking forward to throwing my first events soon:))

Great advice. Just wish I had friends who liked house music lol

Awesome Man! Out of Words I M! Thank You!

You Rock!! Thank you for the video

Love it thanks for the advice. Since this pandemic has taken its toll on the venues I had to start livestreaming on twitch then afterwards I raided other DJ's channels after my stream and supported them and I've started getting some support from others so I definitely can't wait to see what the future holds.

I love the idea of running my own event

Wonderful Tip mate !!!!!

This advice is good. Thanks a lot 🙌

Hey Andrew, Andrew here :) I am also a student of the Club Ready DJ School and i really like your videos. I already did my own parties in Salzburg, Austria and i am really enjoying it. It is a lot fo fun every time and it grows slow but steady :) You mentioned that you would make a video about making parties and i would REALLY like it!!! :P it would be amazing, because you got so much experience and i like the way you are! many good vibes back to you from Austria!!

hey im looking to move to the Gold Coast from NZ to chase my dreams of being a dj and I don't know anyone there do you have any advice for me Cheers Enzo

Yes agreed I would like to see a video on event planning as well. Also, I would like to see a video or just some advice on bouncing back from a gig that was not so strong.

I think it would be great if you did event guides. Remembering all the failures I had before getting it right makes me hope others don't need to go through that, lol

Thanks men

great video again andrew. you'd be more than welcome at one our events. we'll bill you as headline dj lol.

Genius!

Thanks you so much for your honesty and being down to earth it means a lot to have someone speak from there heart.
