Talk about last minute events......

[Papa Deuce]

Just got off the phone 15 minutes ago with a day care operator.... Asks me if I can do a show tomorrow at 10 AM..... So I have my kids at home tomorrow, and now we will all be doing a bubble party.

Not sure why the last minute booking, as this is a repeat customer... and not really my place to ask, I guess. Only thing is, I have no contract signed, but he has always been fine with money before, so I expect no issues on that end.

Awesome!

Are your bubble parties still keeping you pretty busy/

Well I got an email yesterday. Referral from my Korean Wedding Shop the groom clicked on my site and sent over info for a wedding taking place this Sunday. Im providing sound for the ceremony, 6-7 and a string quartet will play for cocktails and dinner. I will DJ from 9 ish until midnite if they decide to dance. If they do it will be one of the rare ones. Typically a few games, Cake Cutting, First Dance and they go home. I hope to get them dancing but it isnt really a custom of theirs.

I quoted someone a price about 1 month ago for a date in November. They said they wanted to hire us but the date changed to 1-01-11 I told her that we would love to be there DJ's but on certain days of the year we charge a premium price. Days such as new years eve, new years, The forth of July etc etc. I raised the price by 150 dollars. We also have a new years eve party the day before that will kick our ass so I really don't care if we get it or not.

It just kind of amazed me she would call for a quote and then put it on a day like that. Needless to say she said she would have to think about it. But she did show me her hand. Saying that the price was similar to other DJ's except we give up to 6 hours and others give 4 hours. It bothers me a little bit given that she is a referral from a past bride. Who gave us huge props.
