Matt, there's a guy in St. Louis (Big Earl, I think) who was doing quite well with Nursing Homes, similar to what I was doing with preschools.
Please don't mock it.
Just ask Papa Deuce about his burdgeoning new business venture.
And while there may be an increase in the higher end weddings, not everyone can DJ at those weddings. If there's no really high end place in your market, or the high end weddings are those in which you don't feel comfortable and therefore don't persue, the laws of supply and demand for what's left will apply.
Hey, nothing would please me more than to see the market pay more for DJs, don't get me wrong, it's just that not everyone is a potential customer for this market. Not everyone is a DJ for this market. To those that are DJs for this market, God love ya. I was charging a handsome 4-figure amount before I had to retire.
Think outside the box. You can only lower your rates so far before it is no longer feasible to remain in business. You would then join the what, 80% of American businesses that end up failing? Or you can try to create new opportunities where none may have existed before.
