I wanted to say thank you for sharing your "DJ Marketing Bible" with us! There's a lot of valuable information here and I have been using the strategies discussed in the ebook to develop a better approach when promoting myself as an artist.

its a funny thing. I have been torting to djs for the past few years that approach me about getting onto the radio station or to get gigs, and the one thing that always come up eventually is "how are you marketing yourself..." i ask them.

Someone here on DJTT forums said the same thing a number of these djs said.
djs shouldnt have to market themselves beyond what people hear in their mixes.

And here it is. A bible that basically lets those djs know..... they were wrong.

Djs get into this passion because they love music first.
then they stay in it because they love the atmosphere and the people they meet.
later its usually that feeling of realization "they are in the public eye" and making new friends.
All the while, never forgetting they are still doing something they love.

But.... you will always end up getting to a point where you HAVE TO KNOW how to market yourself as a dj.
get all the bookings and gigs you want but if you are going to keep playing to an empty room
and not making ANY money for your time and hard practiced craft for say, 8 years (as the most recent conversation led me to understand)
Then you have to take a step back and listen to the person who said "Yes i see you have been doing this for 8 years, but no one knows you, your making no money at it, its hard as heck for you to get a gig, theres nothing specifically noticable about your performance, so have you been doing it CORRECTLY for 8 years or just, doing it?"


There is a difference between a dj that can fill a dj booth
and a dj that can make a presence.

Thanks for the book but you didnt have to PM about it. I almost marked it at spam lol
