    Default Need a Disco

    I mentioned at the start of the year that one of this years aims was to turn around and convert an 'enquiry' from needadisco. I've decided this is absolutely impossible. The latest gem I've been invited to bid for states a 16-21st party in the price range it states

    'Customer requires a quality DJ' - ok I think I'm in here

    next line

    Most Important Aspect: Lowest Price

    what is the point

    There's no facebook account associated with the email address, what kind of a 16-21 year old doen't have a facebook account!

    I'm not even going to waste 5 minutes of me life replying, I've wasted that 5 minutes ranting here and feel better for it

    Simon, I've been signed up for a year to the day on needadisco. Currently trying to work out if it is worth the money and to be fair if Martin wasn't running it there wouldn't be any question about it.

    I have yet to receive a single reply yet alone a booking!. On balance the AMPDJ leads are just as bad so debating about using the money from a few of these sites and going for one quality site such as hitched etc....

    I have converted a few of those Neil. The failure rate is admittedly very high, but since I have my PLI with them, it's a bonus.

    Same as RE: not a single reply - and the Martin connection is the only reason for me too. I've converted a few with AMPDJ (these have filled a blank date close to home) - But definitely on the same wavelength as you in considering a different site.

    To be fair guys, Neil in particular, you've not really made best use of the site from a lead generation point of view.

    For instance, the best quality leads tend to come via the needaweddingdisco route - and here Neil isn't even represented due to lack of DJmark. Simon is running at a Silver level therefore not particularly well ranked and probably missing out on a lot of leads where the client has requested the top 3 or top 5 DJs (quite common).

    Also, needadisco isn't just about lead generation.

    Happy to answer more specific questions and offer advice by email or PM.




    Edit: When did "Lowest Priced, Quality DJ" stop being a valid requirement?

    Ok, having just checked, 3 this year alone, and each of then over £450, which in this area is at the top end from what im lead to believe by more experienced folks round here.

    One last year which was £375.

    needless to say, I will be signing up again....and it is worth noting that these 3 came in after i reworded my reply
