<p><strong>Recognizing and Honoring The Best DJ Business in the Upper-Midwest.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Did You Really Earn Your “Best of Title” or “Award”?</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Hint: Most “Best of Title” or “Awards” are scams used to embellish the value of inferior products or services. Also included in these scams can be popularity polls sponsored by local media where unknown entities solicit friends to vote early and often to receive awards they’ve not earned through years of experience.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">DJ&#8217;s that promote their &#8220;Best of Awards&#8221; as the main reason to hire their DJ service are indirectly telling you how poor their performance really is.  It&#8217;s far easier to show off a &#8220;paid for award&#8221; than to invest time into continuing education to improve your craft and performance.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Truly competent and accomplished DJ performers will lead with their experience and offer examples of how it can benefit you!</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The <a href="http://rapidcityjournal.com/news/local/article_7cafc601-d543-5111-aa3b-2847d1eca365.html">Rapid City Journal, Rapid City, SD</a> summed up dubious awards the best.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>&#8220;These kinds of awards lend doubt to the legitimate ones,&#8221; she said.<br />
&#8220;I just feel bad that there are people out there who do this, that, then cause that distrust.&#8221;</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">According to the Better Business Bureau &#8220;Vanity Awards&#8221; is one area among others to exercise caution.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Specifically mentioned Scam Awards are:</p>

<p>A major obstacle and misconception facing most Wedding &amp; Event planners is understanding how unique each DJ is&#8230;and how to compare DJ skills, experience and talent into a fair price.</p>
<p>Planning a wedding on a budget can lead unwary wedding planners into assuming that all DJs are basically equal.  This is the first mistake people need to avoid when they begin their DJ search.  </p>
<p>The second mistake is focusing solely on price&#8230;which seals the fate of events everyday.</p>
<p><strong>Example: </strong>Comparing a First Grader, Senior in High School and someone earning their College Masters Degree to each other as equally qualified &#8220;students&#8221; would be a rather obvious lapse in common sense. Their knowledge, experience, abilities and responsibilities vary greatly and relate directly to value.</p>
<p>Apply the same comparison to DJs and it becomes easier to understand how different DJ&#8217;s really are. This is why taking an active role in determining how competent the DJ&#8217;s you&#8217;re considering, as opposed to how cheaply they can be attained, is so important and ultimately plays a vital role in the overall success of your event.</p>
<p>Meeting potential DJs in person BEFORE you sign a contract can help you avoid choosing an inexperienced under-priced DJ that could potentially ruin your special day.</p>
