First Gig of the Year
6 01 2008I just finished unloading the truck and trailer from the first gig of the year. Yesterday, I headed down once again to Cherokee, IA to DJ a 60th birthday party. The family was absolutely wonderful and I am glad I was given the opportunity to entertain them. The event was at the Cherokee Country Club and besides a little ice in the parking lot, everything went just fine.
The crowd was very diverse, and spanned four generations, so I played a variety of music all night. For the main part it was mostly 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s, but there were some newer tracks thrown in there as well. The trip itself was the most demanding part. It took about 2.5 hours each way. Luckily, the weather was pretty fair, so it wasn’t too bad. You never know what you are going to run into in South Dakota and Northern Iowa in January!
The drive back gave me some time to think about my goals for 2008. I’m going to strive to provide the same quality care and service to all of my clients throughout the year. I also try to improve my business every year, whether it be a new piece of equipment or a new skill. I’m also going to try to update my website, www.bpmdjproductions.com, and keep it current wih new photos and videos. I’ll do my best to update this Blog as often as possible, because a few people besides my mom actually read it (that’s how I got this past Cherokee gig.) I have a number in mind for the number of bookings I would like to have in 2008, and thanks to a productive 2007, I am already over half-way there. January is starting off with a bang, and I’ve had a lot of information requests come over this month from my website.
Things are looking pretty good for BPM DJ Productions in the new year. Thank you to everyone who has helped me reach this level of success and enjoyment!
