Charging for Extras: When to Say No to “Free” Service Requests as a Wedding DJ
This episode of the Tuesday Night Music Show dives into a common dilemma faced by professional DJs: accommodating last-minute or non-contracted requests from other vendors. DJ Brian S. Redd shares a real-life scenario involving a violinist at a 60-person wedding ceremony who expected to plug into the DJ's system for free. We discuss the professional risks of offering uncharged services, the potential for being blamed for poor sound quality, and the importance of firm pricing policies. Tune in for insights on how to handle requests for additional sound equipment, the $150 charge strategy, and why protecting your business interests is crucial, even when trying to be the “good guy” or helping out a client.
