I've just found out that a karaoke night I did in January at a really average sports club has landed me a lovely wedding this weekend. Seems the bride had a " friend of a friend" who was unavailable, so asked family for advice. " You need the Lad/Old Git we saw doing karaoke last week at the sports club. Lots of fun, witty repartee, total superstar".
A cold wet night in January doing Karaoke has led to a plum wedding in August at a nice price. Every gig is a shop window.
Blimey Chris, there's thinking outside the box, and then there's sheer genius!
Giving the customers what they want. That's a big step into the unknown for a service industry!
Mod note: For anyone who thinks I'm having a pop at Chris, that aligns closely with my standard operating procedure. Not exactly, but very closely, I take requests, I play requests. It's not really rocket science, is it?
