Switch gears and try this: stop relying solely on referrals or lead sites and build a predictable lead generation system that you own and that works even when you’re busy. Here’s a cool tip from “Building a StoryBrand” by Donald Miller: put yourself in your client’s shoes. Use ad language that directly addresses their fears and dreams. This ensures you’re not just another DJ—they’ll see you as the only option worth booking. Instead of casting a wide net and hoping for the best, focus your efforts on a specific niche, like engaged couples in their planning phase. By offering valuable insights, such as a comprehensive wedding planning guide, you capture their interest long enough to demonstrate your worth. You attract them well before the venue does, rather than relying solely on those coveted featured vendor lists. Ready to stop chasing leads and start attracting them? Say goodbye to outdated lead generation strategies and start bringing in consistent, qualified leads for your DJ business directly from Ben Herman of ProfitableDJ.
