      <title>How To Deal With Personal Disasters As A DJ</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Our job as a DJ is all about the "fun"...until life lands you a severe hit (that eventually happens to all of us in one way or another) which leads to a reality check in keeping things in perspective. I I had the privilege of sitting down and talking with Chris Atwood, a stroke survivor, a DJ himself with the SCE Event Group and genuinely just a good dude. He talks through his life before the stroke, during and where things stand now. Shoutouts to Mike Walter and Jason Jani who get their flowers from Chris on this episode as well.</p>

      <title>Is Artistry Worth It?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>I had a "triple event" weekend which was both a sobering reminder and an encouragement to pursuing artistry. When I was starting out in this industry, my whole sales process and value proposition was wrapped into what I could do "at" their event. The problem with that is you can't guarantee a lot of those things because so much of it is out of your control. A few years ago I shifted to selling the things I could control. While that may add a few more layers to my process (that I actually do enjoy), there still is the "day of event" pay-off that you hope for as a creative. What happens when the pay-off doesn't occur? I cover that and more in this episode.</p>

      <title>INTERVIEW: DREW PIERCE - What Songs To Play vs The Knot&apos;s DNP List (Part 2)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Earlier this year, the Knot published 26 "Do Not Play Songs" from the perspective of a guest attending a wedding. Some (not all) DJs made comments to the effect of, "These are go to songs for me" or "I'd feel handicapped without them." In an effort to help those DJs, Drew Pierce (fellow DJ, editor and programmer extraordinaire) and I give you replacement song ideas for songs #14-26 on the playlist with part of this interview. If nothing else, keep these song ideas on your radar in case they do appear on a client's do not playlist.</p>

      <title>INTERVIEW: Joe Bunn - How To Save Your 2024 and Build For 2025</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In talking with DJs weekly, I get the sense we're headed for a similar 2023 where a decent amount of DJs aren't having the year in 2024 that they had hoped for as it pertains to both bookings and revenue. In the same breath, they are hopeful based on inquiries for the upcoming year (2025). I've always been a realist rather than a glass half full/glass half empty type person. The reality is that we still have 3/4 of the year to go. If things aren't hitting, don't pack it in. In this interview with my good friend and DJ industry educator, Joe Bunn, we talk through what can be done to not only save 2024 but also plant seeds for 2025.</p>

      <itunes:summary>In talking with DJs weekly, I get the sense we&apos;re headed for a similar 2023 where a decent amount of DJs aren&apos;t having the year in 2024 that they had hoped for as it pertains to both bookings and revenue. In the same breath, they are hopeful based on inquiries for the upcoming year (2025). I&apos;ve always been a realist rather than a glass half full/glass half empty type person. The reality is that we still have 3/4 of the year to go. If things aren&apos;t hitting, don&apos;t pack it in. In this interview with my good friend and DJ industry educator, Joe Bunn, we talk through what can be done to not only save 2024 but also plant seeds for 2025. </itunes:summary>

      <title>Is Scaling The Only Path To Happiness?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>I was targeted with a Facebook or Instagram ad by a business coach in the event industry space who made the claim that scaling your business was the only way to achieve true happiness. Having run various types of DJ businesses - from a  large scale multi-op to a boutique agency to a single-op, I can emphatically tell you it's not the "only" way.  In this episode, I give DJ business owners a couple things to consider in this area.</p>

      <title>2 Ways You Can Win With A Booking Besides Money</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Most people think the only way you can win with a booking is by getting paid. No doubt, that is important. But in this episode, I offer two other "wins" you can gain from a booking that are rarely talked about but will absolutely move the needle forward in your business. I also discuss 2 monetary landmines that you should look to avoid.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I had a completely different direction I was going on the podcast this week and then the Knot's Do No Play List article (from January 2024) made the rounds on social media. As usual with these things, it conjured up a lot of emotion within the DJ community and boy did we see a few folks get triggered. I'm frankly at a loss as to why.

Not only do I hope to save you time in finding gems but I also give you my take on how/where I use them within my sets</p>

      <title>6 Time Efficiency Tips For DJs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Being a mobile DJ owner is not for the faint of heart.  Since running my own business, I've never found a time where I was like, "I'm bored." It doesn't matter if you're a single-op or a multi-op owner; you will always have a never ending list of things to do.  That being said, we should never be beholden to our job. It should be a means to an end. Over the years, there's 6 things I've incorporated into my workflow to help me stay efficient with my time. Time is the one thing we can NEVER get back. Once it's gone, it's gone. In sharing these tips, my hope is that you can find at least one of them useful and that it can give you a sense of feeling like you are in control of your responsiblities instead of time and tasks controlling you.</p>

      <title>Are You Asking For A Client&apos;s Event Budget?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This episode could be a game changing listen for you. At the very least, it should give you all the confidence you would ever need to go out to the world with your pricing, no matter what it is. In the last month and a half, I've been asking clients this question: What Is Your Overall Event Budget?  Maybe I was naive for the last 20 years, but after reviewing what it is clients are spending on their events and what percentage of the pie we're receiving, it doesn't seem to me to be an even exchange when you look at the overall impact we have on events. I think it's time we change that. Listen and let me know if you agree.</p>

      <title>How To Pay Your DJs: 3 Options</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>One of those "learn on the job" things in the mobile DJ world is how to pay your DJs if you become a mutli-op owner. It usually starts with a copy and paste of someone else's way of doing it and then it morphs into whatever it takes to keep your Djs on the staff. Guilty, party of 1 of those approaches. Over the years, it's become apparent to me that there are 3 options to paying your DJs. I go through the pros and cons of each.  At the end of the day, you have a 100% booking pie to work with. Once I wrapped my head around that, it was easy to figure out what I could offer my DJs.  What are your thoughts? Am I missing a method? Does one I mention resonate for you?</p>

Cliff notes version: I'm stilling clinging to the old adage that goes, "The wheels of justice grind slowly."</p>

      <title>What Happens When The Bottom Falls Out Of Your Pricing Model?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>When the financial belts of our clients tighten or a disaster strikes (hello wildfires, oil spills and COVID), you're able to really test how resilient of a pricing model you have. When it comes down to it and things aren't booking, what do you do? A lot of companies are dropping their prices in order to keep business coming through the door. Sounds like a solid strategy, but is it? Have you ever thought of the consequences of making that type of move? In this episode, I talk through both the short-term and long-term effects of a price reduction strategy as well as how to create a pricing structure that not only allows you to make it to the other side but to do so in an even stronger position than you are today.</p><p>I'm on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkqQiaw8Mg_GvNsDsCTBgaw" target="_blank">YOUTUBE</a>!  Please subscribe and share.

      <title>Should A DJ&apos;s Living Wage Be Given Or Earned?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>It's an interesting time we're in. A lot of DJs (and event professionals at large) are dealing with clients who are asking for discounts, concessions, compromises to process, etc.  This inevitably leads to the "woe is me" argument that has led some to suggest that all mobile DJs should be given a living wage as a baseline. Number one, this doesn't fix the problem and typically encourages bad behavior. Second, you place great risk on clients who hire you based on this flawed wages suggestion. Third, it's not sustainable and ultimately places a black eye on the industry.

      <title>INTERVIEW: Matty P, Coresmart - Fitness For A DJ</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>I've always been relatively healthy. That said, I had my fair share of late night eats and energy drinks to get me through gig seasons. But as I got into my mid-late 30s, I definitely was starting to feel the effects of some of these poor choices. I would randomly get injured, back flair ups, indigestion, etc. It finally hit a head and I had to figure this out. Working out was never my thing. I opted for sports. But in 2020-2021, when the world in NYC (where I lived at the time), was essentially shut down, I needed something I could do in my apartment.  Enter in Matty Pattison, owner/founder of CoreSmart. This has been a total game changer and I'm excited to share this with you. In this current season of the podcast, I've been sharing certain tools and resources of mine in an effort to help others. There's no paid endorsements here...just giving back to the DJ community at large.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A listener requested topic. Gifting is so broad so I decided in this episode to zero in on "vendor" gifting. There are so many reasons why you should consider doing this. How you implement it can be just as varied. When you do this is critical for maximum impact. But everyone also wants to be unique with the what. I spill the tea on what I've done here but with so many resources now available for sourcing gift ideas, your options are truly limitless. Hopefully, by the end of this episode, I inspire you to get in on the gifting game.</p><p>I'm on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkqQiaw8Mg_GvNsDsCTBgaw" target="_blank">YOUTUBE</a>!  Please subscribe and share.

      <title>Are Your Clients &quot;Venue Poor&quot;?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>We've all heard of people who buy houses that are at the top end or above their budget and then they have no money to purchase the necessities to compliment the purchase. They are often referred to as "house poor".  Believe it or not, this happens quite often in the private event world. Clients will secure a venue and not have any money to compliment the space with like-minded creatives.  These types of clients can be referred to as "venue poor". It's such a shame that this happens for a special event that may only occur once in their lifetime.  How do you overcome this issue?

      <title>Sales: Are You Leading Or Following Your Prospects?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, I talk through this idea of either leading or following prospects when it comes to a sales consult or discovery meeting. For so many, the idea of the DJ company driving those interactions may lead to repelling a potential client. Yes, that's true, but I believe that's a good thing...because you leave room for the right clients who are attracted and frankly excited about the journey you're going to take them on. Pricing really becomes secondary.  So what it does it look like to lead?

      <title>The Fifty Thousand Dollar Theft (Update)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Last year I posted an episode (Season 4, Episode 50) about the $50K theft I experienced. I've had some progress on that front and wanted to share an update in hopes of helping other DJs that might find themselves in a similar predicament.

      <title>The DJC Recharge (July 2023): What To Expect and Why You Need To Be There</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>What is the DJ Collective Recharge?  Yes, it's different than our annual November event.

As a now more "seasoned" company owner, I have come to understand the value of real-time mentorship and still have it in place today. This is for every level of DJ owner/operator.

      <itunes:summary>What is the DJ Collective Recharge?  Yes, it&apos;s different than our annual November event. I sincerely wish there would have been something like this when I was starting off so that I didn&apos;t have to ONLY learn from personally making massive mistakes as a DJ owner early on. As a now more &quot;seasoned&quot; company owner, I have come to understand the value of real-time mentorship and still have it in place today. This is for every level of DJ owner/operator. You don&apos;t want to pass this up...trust me on this.  In this episode, I share insight into how this event taking place in Raleigh, NC July 24-25 is laid out and why you need be one of the 50 people in the room.</itunes:summary>

      <title>FAMS and Minis: Networking Redefined</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Just got off a week where I went on an invite only FAM trip to Vail, CO and have another invite only FAM I'm attending next month in Martha's Vineyard. If that wasn't enough, I'm hosting my own 'minis' in June and July. Never heard of these things?

      <title>INTERVIEW: Gerald Isaac - Why Voice Nuances Matter</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>On this season of the podcast, from time to time, I will be sharing with you some of the personal tools that I use which I think can help you as a DJ. In this episode, I sit down with my vocal coach, Gerald Isaac. A vocal coach for a DJ? Yeah, I didn't think I would need one either. Now, almost 2 years in of weekly remote (zoom) 1 hour vocal lessons, I've made a 180 - both in terms of my performance being taken to a higher level and with my thoughts that this can be of help (even to a seasoned veteran DJ like myself). We talk through his vocal coaching approach/philosophy, what a typical lesson is like and he even shares a tip at the end on how to keep your voice fresh and strong when you are on a run of 3-4 events in a week during heavy event season.</p><p>I'm on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkqQiaw8Mg_GvNsDsCTBgaw" target="_blank">YOUTUBE</a>!  Please subscribe and share.

      <itunes:summary>On this season of the podcast, from time to time, I will be sharing with you some of the personal tools that I use which I think can help you as a DJ. In this episode, I sit down with my vocal coach, Gerald Isaac. A vocal coach for a DJ? Yeah, I didn&apos;t think I would need one either. Now, almost 2 years in of weekly remote (zoom) 1 hour vocal lessons, I&apos;ve made a 180 - both in terms of my performance being taken to a higher level and with my thoughts that this can be of help (even to a seasoned veteran DJ like myself). We talk through his vocal coaching approach/philosophy, what a typical lesson is like and he even shares a tip at the end on how to keep your voice fresh and strong when you are on a run of 3-4 events in a week during heavy event season.</itunes:summary>

But even with it out there, not may people are doing it....or at least not doing it well.  In this episode, I talk through not only why it's important, but how to format those stories, and then I give you 4 types of stories you should be telling as well as 4 steps to telling better stories.

      <itunes:subtitle>In a day and age where it&apos;s easy to just copy and paste (hello ChatGPT) website verbiage, social media captions or even marketing strategies, how do you stand out?  Newsflash: It&apos;s not to yell louder or spend more on advertising. It&apos;s about going deeper. One of the ways to do this is through story-telling.  This isn&apos;t new...&quot;story&quot; is a marketing buzz word. But even with it out there, not may people are doing it....or at least not doing it well.  In this episode, I talk through not only why it&apos;s important, but how to format those stories, and then I give you 4 types of stories you should be telling as well as 4 steps to telling better stories.

      <title>INTERVIEW: A Check-In with Michael Mahler from VIBO</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>On this season of the podcast, from time to time, I will be sharing with you some of the tools that I use which I think can help you as a DJ. In this episode, I sit down with VIBO's founder, Michael Mahler. Vibo is an event planning and music request app that I've been using ever since it launched in the US back in 2017. For those not familiar with the app, Michael talks through some of the highlights of the product. We discuss some of the things on the horizon for the app's future and then he also drops a golden nugget in sharing one of the things he wishes he could go back and tell his younger entrepreneurial self. Lastly, he shares where you can find him and demo the product for yourself in 2023.</p><p>Check out my podcast <a href="https://www.thetraveldjblend.com" target="_blank">website</a> and my <a href="https://www.patreon.com/djbrianbofficial" target="_blank">premium podcast content community page</a>.</p><p>DJs: Are you not using VIBO, the music request and planning app?

      <title>Your Bookings: Feast or Famine?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>I've had a ton of conversations with DJ company owners recently and unlike previous years where we all were tracking in somewhat the same direction, this year (2023) I'm hearing a lot of companies that are in "feast" mode while a considerable amount of others are in "famine" mode. Why is this?  And if your inquiries are minimal, how can you change that?

      <title>Travel Hack: How To Score A Poor Man&apos;s First Class Ticket</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>I talk a lot about loyalty to an airline or two (or three). But if travel DJ life is more of a "one off" than the norm, loyalty to a specific airline might not always be possible. I also talk a lot about the need to be well rested and at your most optimal peak-performance self at travel gigs. Without a first class ticket, this might be tough when you're sitting in the back or in the middle seat (or worse, both) with limited or zero recline options (yes, I realize these are first world problems). Or maybe you're flying to an industry event or conference this year and want an elevated flying experience. This is where this hack can come in handy. In this short (under 6 minutes) episode, I give you a hack to having a first class type of experience without paying for it. </p><p>Check out my podcast <a href="https://www.thetraveldjblend.com" target="_blank">website</a> and my <a href="https://www.patreon.com/djbrianbofficial" target="_blank">premium podcast content community page</a>.</p><p>DJs: Are you not using VIBO, the music request and planning app?

      <itunes:summary>I talk a lot about loyalty to an airline or two (or three). But if travel DJ life is more of a &quot;one off&quot; than the norm, loyalty to a specific airline might not always be possible. I also talk a lot about the need to be well rested and at your most optimal peak-performance self at travel gigs. Without a first class ticket, this might be tough when you&apos;re sitting in the back or in the middle seat (or worse, both) with limited or zero recline options (yes, I realize these are first world problems). Or maybe you&apos;re flying to an industry event or conference this year and want an elevated flying experience. This is where this hack can come in handy. In this short (under 6 minutes) episode, I give you a hack to having a first class type of experience without paying for it. </itunes:summary>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I've been pretty vocal about the need for me to get a 75% deposit from clients upon booking. This isn't about a money grab - in fact, far from it.

      <itunes:summary>I&apos;ve been pretty vocal about the need for me to get a 75% deposit from clients upon booking. This isn&apos;t about a money grab - in fact, far from it. In this episode, I break it down to help a DJ who tried to make the shift to this 75% with a client and it caused some pushback from said client. The DJ was looking for advice to counter this and book them. Context is everything.  Listen to this episode for clarity here.</itunes:summary>

      <itunes:summary>With my music episodes, I try to present to you evergreen tracks that will be with you for a while. So although these are October 2022 picks, all of these I still use at the end of November (time of recording). I subscribe to a ton of record pools beyond digging through blogs, Patreon, streaming services, Shazam, and the like. I thought I would share my top 10 most interesting musical track finds with you. Bonus: I&apos;ll give you the source on where to find the tracks I talk about. Not only do I hope to save you time in finding gems but I also give you my take on how/where I use them within my sets.</itunes:summary>

      <title>What&apos;s The Right Amount of Involvement of The DJ With The Timeline?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This is a listener requested topic - whether it's a planner or a DJ or a venue representative, each (in a lot of cases) feels like they should control the timeline.  How do you handle a situation where there is dissension amongst the client and vendor team on this issue?

      <title>Will Inflation Impact Your DJ Bookings?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Most people don't want to poke the bear or deal with the elephant in the room. It's uncomfortable, possibly painful, and it's not the most fun thing to talk about. However, like a train coming down the tracks, it's not going to reverse course. It's coming (for some, it's already here) so best to have a game plan in place. What am I talking about? Inflation! Whether you want to believe it or not, it will impact your DJ bookings in some way.

He realized early on that the best leaders tend to work on themselves first.  Once that is in order, it flows down to the rest of the organization.  He's doing some incredible things with his team in this leadership development endeavor that I think could transform our entire industry if we all got on board.</p><p>As mentioned in this episode, check out Broc Barton Lifestyle Leadership <a href="https://www.brocbarton.com" target="_blank">here</a>. </p><p>Check out my new podcast <a href="https://www.thetraveldjblend.com" target="_blank">website</a> and my <a href="https://www.patreon.com/djbrianbofficial" target="_blank">premium podcast content community page</a>.</p><p>DJs: Interested in Heavy Hits Music Pool?

      <itunes:summary>Often we think of leadership as only being needed for companies with a lot of employees and generally, you&apos;re thrust into the role as the company grows without any training whatsoever. That can lead to some costly mistakes if you aren&apos;t careful. In this episode, I sit down with Broc Barton owner of Elevate Entertainment. He realized early on that the best leaders tend to work on themselves first.  Once that is in order, it flows down to the rest of the organization.  He&apos;s doing some incredible things with his team in this leadership development endeavor that I think could transform our entire industry if we all got on board.</itunes:summary>

      <title>The DJ Collective Origin Story</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Even though we've mentioned some of it in our DJ Collective recap videos, I haven't ever shared The DJ Collective Origin Story except from the DJC stage (and even then, you'd only know if you were at a DJC). There's been a lot of chatter about DJ learning opportunities as we're in the midst of “DJ Industry Show Season”. If you're looking for something that is truly <strong>a career game changer </strong>(some attendees have even used the phrase “<i>life changing</i>”), then this episode is for you. We've never cared about growing this into something massive (though if it happens, we're ok with it); we care more about having the right people attend.  So while we don't heavily advertise the event, there is a reason why this experience has either sold out or oversold every year and it goes back to the foundation. In this episode, I talk through what it is, why it started, how it launched and really the ethos behind the experience. It has never wavered...though it has evolved over the years. You will have a little more understanding of what makes this "experience" so different from other learning opportunities in the DJ industry and I'd even go as far as to say the event industry at large. Take a listen as I cover DJC 1.0.</p><p>For more information on The DJ Collective, click <a href="https://www.thedjcollectiveofficial.com">here</a>.</p><p>Check out my new podcast <a href="https://www.thetraveldjblend.com" target="_blank">website</a> and my <a href="https://www.patreon.com/djbrianbofficial" target="_blank">premium podcast content community page</a>.</p><p>DJs: Interested in Heavy Hits Music Pool?

      <title>Airline Ticket Hacks During The Gas Hike of 2022</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>As a full-time destination event DJ, I'm booking all my travel right now for events up through May. As I did a search last week for some flights, I was shocked to find ticket prices were in some cases THREE TIMES more than the typical price. So how do you handle this? Especially when you're quoting prices 6-12 months out, how do you protect yourself without knowing something like a gas surge is on the horizon? In this episode, I give you 2 strategies to consider which will limit your risk of profitability and I also share a ton of little purchasing hacks along the way.  Even if you're just the occasional flier for business or leisure, there's some tips for everyone in this episode.  </p><p>Check out my new podcast <a href="https://www.thetraveldjblend.com" target="_blank">website</a> and my <a href="https://www.patreon.com/djbrianbofficial" target="_blank">premium podcast content community page</a>.</p><p>DJs: Interested in Heavy Hits Music Pool?

      <title>How To Structure Sales Commissions For A DJ (or Any) Business</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>I've always been a fan of rewarding yourself (if you sell yourself) or your salespeople for a sale. There are exceptions but by and large sales is not easy - time and money spent to market for the client you want, the sales consult, the proposal, the signing of the contract and the payment.  That's a lot of steps. So when you get that sale, you should enjoy the spoils, whether it's you as the owner/salesperson or your sales team. In this episode, I walk through how to set up a sales commission structure. I've been a part of some awesome companies/organizations that have this stuff on lock and think I can give you some out of the box ideas here, whether you are a single-op or a multi-op.  <br /><br />Check out my new <a href="https://www.thetraveldjblend.com" target="_blank">website</a> and my <a href="https://www.patreon.com/djbrianbofficial" target="_blank">patreon</a>.</p><p>DJs: Interested in Heavy Hits Music Pool?

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Rant...Errr...DJ Dad Talk Time. From the inception of this podcast, the goals have been to #1 - have conversations that others in our industry aren't having; ones that go deeper than surface level and #2 - push our industry forward.  So when I see something that runs contrary to that, I feel it's my duty to share my take on the subject in a way that may run counter to what the rest of our industry is doing. I don't do it to change you mind necessarily but to help us not become blind sheep following those who have the loudest megaphones. Lately, I've been seeing a ton of people using declarative statements on social calling out haters. What's the purpose? Do those who are truly successful and have actual haters do that? I'm not seeing it from where I sit. In this episode, I make the arguments for letting the haters talk and not giving them a seat in my headspace. </p><p>DJs: Interested in Heavy Hits Music Pool?

      <itunes:summary>Rant...Errr...DJ Dad Talk Time. From the inception of this podcast, the goals have been to #1 - have conversations that others in our industry aren&apos;t having; ones that go deeper than surface level and #2 - push our industry forward.  So when I see something that runs contrary to that, I feel it&apos;s my duty to share my take on the subject in a way that may run counter to what the rest of our industry is doing. I don&apos;t do it to change you mind necessarily but to help us not become blind sheep following those who have the loudest megaphones. Lately, I&apos;ve been seeing a ton of people using declarative statements on social calling out haters. What&apos;s the purpose? Do those who are truly successful and have actual haters do that? I&apos;m not seeing it from where I sit. In this episode, I make the arguments for letting the haters talk and not giving them a seat in my headspace.

      <itunes:summary>It takes a minute for me to get there but the crux of this episode is about transparency (especially with our social media). Do our clients really need to see everything?

      <itunes:subtitle>As you move into higher end events, you will inevitably be working with a planner. So it makes sense to ask, what are planners looking for in DJ Set-ups? This may influence what you invest money into. I don&apos;t think it&apos;s as complicated as it may seem. Communication is key.

      <title>February 2021 Music Picks with Brian B, Digital Dave, Jason Jani  &amp; Stylus Chris</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This is a once a month re-occurring series which Brian B, Digital Dave and Jason Jani all co-host with a different special guest each month.  For February 2021, we have Stylus Chris joining us. He's an incredible track selector, resident DJ for MLB's Washington Nationals, works clubs and travels around the country as a destination private event DJ out of Washington DC. We don't just play tracks...we talk more about the discovery process and how/where to use them. Looking for some of these tracks we talk about? I put a lot of them from these monthly episodes on 1 Spotify Music playlist and sometimes they make my seasonal playlist (links below).</p>

      <title>January 2021 Marketing Tips With Joe Bunn</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This is a new once a month re-occurring series where Joe Bunn and myself talk marketing tips that are pertinent to the particular month in which we record (in this case, January 2021). These are tips aimed at the mobile DJ owner - whether you are a single op, established multi-op owner or veteran DJ company. With booking season in high gear right now and with COVID still a major obstacle for a lot of DJs in various parts of the country, we talk through what we each feel DJ company owners in the categories above should be focused on right now.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>This is a once a month re-occurring series where Joe Bunn and myself talk through songs we're using at events.

Looking for some of these tracks we talk about? I put them on my Spotify Music playlist and sometimes they make my seasonal playlist (links below).</p>

      <itunes:summary>This is a once a month re-occurring series where Joe Bunn and myself talk through songs we&apos;re using at events. In this episode, we talk through what I&apos;m feeling in December 2020. However, we don&apos;t just talk tracks...we talk more about the discovery process and how/where to use them. Looking for some of these tracks we talk about? I put them on my Spotify Music playlist and sometimes they make my seasonal playlist (links below).

      <title>The Second Act Vol 6: COVID Perspectives From The DJ Industry Media</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The “Second Act” series is based on the fact that, in my mind, everything we did “pre-covid” was the First Act.  The Second Act is what we’re in right now as states start to re-open and we get back to events. What I’ve come to realize as we’ve been going through this pandemic is that there are a lot of great stories out there – things of hope, things that are super raw for folks, and even stories of great loss. I wanted to get these stories out there because I think we can learn a little something from others that are going through it, just like we are.  In this episode (volume 6), I interview some from the DJ Industry Media - Eddie Short with Pro Mobile in the UK, John Young with Disc Jockey News and DJNTV and Jim Tremayne with DJ Times in 3 separate mini interviews. Similar to the DJ Manufacturers/Service Providers, these outlets are so important to our industry because they get the scoop for all sectors of our business yet they have no outlet for sharing it in this type of context.  I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I did interviewing them.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Episode 100 is here! I decided to take a break from all things serious and add a bit of levity on here -  in a year (2020) that could definitely use some.

My thanks to Bob Conti, Andrea Eppolito, Emily Clark, Lindsey and Cherish Conklin, Graeme Cowgill, Hugh Howser, Amy Shey Jacobs and Mike Walter.</p>

      <title>November 2020 Music Picks with Brian B &amp; Joe Bunn</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This is a once a month re-occurring series where Joe Bunn and myself talk through songs we're using at events. In this episode, we talk through what I'm feeling in November 2020. However, we don't just talk tracks...we talk more about the discovery process and how/where to use them. Looking for some of these tracks we talk about? I put them on my Spotify Music playlist and sometimes they make my seasonal playlist (links below).</p>

      <itunes:summary>This is a once a month re-occurring series where Joe Bunn and myself talk through songs we&apos;re using at events. In this episode, we talk through what I&apos;m feeling in November 2020. However, we don&apos;t just talk tracks...we talk more about the discovery process and how/where to use them. Looking for some of these tracks we talk about? I put them on my Spotify Music playlist and sometimes they make my seasonal playlist (links below).

      <title>Product Review: Automate Your DJEP</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, I give you a product review of something I've been using for the last few months: Automate Your DJEP. If you are a user of DJ Event Planner, a CRM for DJs, this is a must have! I'm always hesitant to add more services or systems to the back-end of my business (what's the old saying, &quot;If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It.&quot;) but you have to continue to push forward and be on the lookout for new tools to stay relevant and make the most of your time and money.  Automate Your DJEP has done that for me.  This is not a paid endorsement; just me sharing a product that has done wonders for me and my business.

      <title>The Second Act Vol 4: Lessons From A Mid-Sized Entertainment Company Pt. 2</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The “Second Act” series is based on the fact that, in my mind, everything we did “pre-covid” was the First Act.  The Second Act is what we’re in right now as states start to re-open and we get back to events. What I’ve come to realize as we’ve been going through this pandemic is that there are a lot of great stories out there – things of hope, things that are super raw for folks, and even stories of great loss. I wanted to get these stories out there because I think we can learn a little something from others that are going through it, just like we are.  In this episode, I interview Ross B with Rock With U Entertainment. This dude is a ball of positivity and he gives some awesome nuggets about how's he built his business to gross $5 million a year and what he's done to assure his company makes it through this pandemic.</p>

Looking for some of these tracks we talk about? I put them on my Spotify Music playlist and sometimes they make my seasonal playlist (links below).</p>

      <title>The Second Act Vol 3: Lessons From A Mid-Sized Entertainment Company Pt. 1</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The “Second Act” series is based on the fact that, in my mind, everything we did “pre-covid” was the First Act.  The Second Act is what we’re in right now as states start to re-open and we get back to events. What I’ve come to realize as we’ve been going through this pandemic is that there are a lot of great stories out there – things of hope, things that are super raw for folks, and even stories of great loss. I wanted to get these stories out there because I think we can learn a little something from others that are going through it, just like we are.  In this episode, I interview Jason Klock with Klock Entertainment. Some may assume it is easier to deal with tough business decisions the bigger you are - quite to the contrary. Jason talks through some of his strategies in getting through this crazy pandemic.</p>

I wanted to get these stories out there because I think we can learn a little something from others that are going through it, just like we are.  In this episode, I interview Cooper Brown with One Above Entertainment. He decided to go full-time with his DJ business in 2020 just before the pandemic turned this year upside down. How has and is he navigating this? Listen to his story in this episode.

      <itunes:subtitle>The “Second Act” series is based on the fact that, in my mind, everything we did “pre-covid” was the First Act.  The Second Act is what we’re in right now as states start to re-open and we get back to events.

      <title>The Second Act Vol 1: COVID Thoughts From Some BBC Collective Members</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The “Second Act” series is based on the fact that, in my mind, everything we did “pre-covid” was the First Act.  The Second Act is what we’re in right now as states start to re-open and we get back to events. What I’ve come to realize as we’ve been going through this pandemic is that there are a lot of great stories out there – things of hope, things that are super raw for folks, and even stories of great loss. I wanted to get these stories out there because I think we can learn a little something from others that are going through it, just like we are.  In this episode, I wanted to start with a few people who are a part  of  “The BBC Collective” – a crowd-sourced learning environment of creative businesses with the mantra of becoming better creative businesses.  We have 3 mini interviews with Sean Low, who runs the group, Maria Maxit who owns/operates Maxit Flower Design out of Houston, and Andrea Eppolito, a wedding planner extraordinaire out of Las Vegas.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>This is a once a month re-occurring series where Joe Bunn and myself talk through songs we're using at events. In this episode, we talk through what I'm feeling in July 2020. However, we don't just talk tracks...we talk more about the discovery process and how/where to use them. Looking for some of these tracks we talk about? I put them on my Spotify Music playlist and sometimes they make my seasonal playlist (links below).</p>

      <title>INTERVIEW: Lucy Black Entertainment - The Power Of Collaboration</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>It's always bewildered me why collaboration is frowned upon...especially in the entertainment space.  In this episode, I talk with Rebecca Steele and Lauren Brettell, co-owners of Lucy Black Entertainment out of Washington DC.  They've really pushed the bar in the luxury market with this collaboration over competition mantra. We also cover running an entertainment business as women,  partnerships, as well as a few lightning round questions at the end to get to know them better.  Have a topic you want covered?

      <itunes:summary>It&apos;s always bewildered me why collaboration is frowned upon...especially in the entertainment space.  In this episode, I talk with Rebecca Steele and Lauren Brettell, co-owners of Lucy Black Entertainment out of Washington DC.  They&apos;ve really pushed the bar in the luxury market with this collaboration over competition mantra. We also cover running an entertainment business as women,  partnerships, as well as a few lightning round questions at the end to get to know them better.  Have a topic you want covered?

      <title>INTERVIEW: Jason Jani - How Does A Leader Handle Adversity?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A lot of folks see those who have success and they think it's all gravy for them. However, successful people are human too.

We talk through a little of his story and how he's dealt with adversity.  This is raw, candid and not something that is IG safe.  Have a topic you want covered? Drop me a DM at @thetraveldjblend.
