Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Recently (a few hours ago), a client who had called in to inquire about our services asked if I would mind answering a few questions from a questionnaire she had found online regarding DJ services. Apparently she had stumbled upon this list in her online quest to find a disc jockey for her upcoming event. I was actually pretty impressed with the list and subsequently asked her to email me a copy so that I might have it for my own records… and that’s when I decided to blog it.
Q: How long have you been in business?
A: Cutting Edge Entertainment has been in business for sixteen years.
Q: Are we allowed to submit a music list of some type?
A: We encourage it.
Q: What is the attire suitable for your wedding DJs?
A: Tuxedo, unless otherwise specified.
Q: How vast is your music collection?
A: Interesting question. Our music library was vast and our music knowledge was quite broad before the Internet. With the Internet it it limitless.
Q: How many functions have you performed at?
A: Personally, I used to do anywhere from eighty to a hundred events a year (from 1988 to 2001) but now only work select events where I am requested. My staff works quite a bit more each doing seventy five or more events per year.
Q: Do you require a deposit? How much?
A: Yes we require a deposit to hold a date. How much depends on the entertainment package, but is typically 1/3 of the total price.
Q: Do you accept major credit cards for payment?
A: Yes. We accept MasterCard, Visa and American Express.
Q: Is there someone to replace you in case of sickness?
A: Absolutely.
Q: Does the entertainer require a meal?
A: We do not require our clients to feed us… but we are grateful when we are fed.
Q: Do you offer a free consult prior to the function?
A: We encourage it. We like to meet with our clients at our office prior to the event to go over the agenda and all of the event details. Some DJs seem to think a phone call the week of the event is sufficient… not us.
Q: Do you have a video?
A: Yes. We welcome clients to come meet with us prior to booking. Let us show you video footage and tell you all about our services.
