Payment terms
In order to book DJ80 disco you will be required to pay the full cost in advance. After a short phonecall to confirm your exact requirements, and whether DJ80 can meet them, you will be emailed a booking form.

This may differ from other providers, but more and more services within the entertainment sector are taking this approach.
Why?
After the last few years with covid lockdowns, and especially the Christmas period with Omicron, busy dates were booked well in advance to secure them for parties. Because DJ80 is not a multi-op business, this meant all other booking enquiries for those dates were declined. Unfortunately, despite there being no official lockdown, many of those bookings were cancelled at the very last minute. This had a catastrophic impact to entertainment businesses all over the UK.

Peace of Mind.
There is also an upside to you (the client) in this process. During covid there were many businesses that didn't survive. Typically these businesses took deposits around the £50 -£100 range. These amounts were never refunded and because they were lower, clients felt more inclined to write them off.
Additionally, the mobile DJ industry will always have people who want to try the job out and offer temptingly low prices. Week in and week out you will see social media posts about someone being let down by such a person, often because the time has come for them to perform and they've realised they're ill equipped to do the job.

Facts about DJ80 Pricing
The price for booking DJ80 might not be as cheap as other suppliers and there are several reasons for this.
Firstly, DJ80 is a well established and professional small business which has grown healthily over the course of more than 10 years. This time has helped DJ80 develop an understanding of what clients, and usually their guests, expect from an evening. This is experience you can't buy or shortcut.
Secondly, as a professional business, DJ80 only uses brand new safe professional grade DJ equipment, bought from UK DJ stores. There's a cost to ensuring you are not given a second hand, or unsafe or unfit for purpose, DJ setup on your special occasion.
Thirdly, as with any business that differentiates itself from a hobbyist, there are also unseen overheads. Liability insurance, electrical testing, DBS checks, websites, marketing, administration, music purchasing, uniform and many other day to day costs.
And lastly, there's business profit. On top of covering all the costs, a business can only be successful if it makes a profit. Whereas you might get quoted a smaller fee for a 'mate' cash in hand 'DJ', they most certainly won't have everything mentioned above. By booking DJ80 you're supporting a small business and the entertainment industry itself.
