A DJ story that applies to all vendors our industr

A DJ story that applies to all vendors our industry, when it comes to value vs costs ⬇️ (PSA : not our story, but definitely worth the time, bridefriends!)

A customer asked me how much for a wedding DJ package
𝗠𝗲: R 16 500
𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿: Why is it too expensive? all I need is music on the occasion!
𝗠𝗲: How much do you think it would cost you?
𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿: R1500 maximum... It's just easy, right?! all you have to do is play some music.
𝗠𝗲: hmm okay, maybe you can do it yourself.
𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿: but I don't know how...
𝗠𝗲: For R1500 I'll teach you, with that, you can save. You'll get the knowledge that you'll need.
𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿: Okay, I'm fine with that.
𝗠𝗲: But to get started: We need some things first:
Professional 2×CDJ"s or DJ Controller(R30 000)
Mixer (R20 000)
Speakers(10000)
light setup ( R5000)
Headphones ( R4000)
Cordless Mics (R8000)
𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿: Oh my. But I don't have all this DJ equipment! Do I need to buy all of that? I just only need 1 wedding DJ for the evening of my wedding?

- Safety and security

and that's excluding travelling, accommodation, labor🙄...... !

A wedding reading you’ll want to steal for your

A wedding reading you’ll want to steal for your day ⏬️

Wherever we go
Whatever we do
Whenever there’s me
I hope that there’s you.

Now Money is Funny, it can make people odd.
You forget to be happy, and you live for your job
And fashion, is a passion, beset with a flaw
You can dress to excess, but you’ll always need more.
And a muscle toned body, may sound like a dream
But no body is better, than chocolate ice cream.

What I’m trying to say, is that happiness grows
Not through your wages, or body or clothes

But in laughter and love, and in sharing your life
In the arms of another as husband and wife.

So when you find someone who’s weird just like you
Who laughs when you’re stupid and who makes you laugh too.
When you sit on the sofa, not hiding your flaws
As imperfectly perfect, as the hand that holds yours.
When the fortune of kings, or purse of a beggar
Won’t change how it feels, just being together.

When a cuddle and cuppa is all that you need….
Well then…
You’ve found something quite special indeed.

Wherever we go
Whatever we do
Whenever there’s me
I hope that there’s you.
