Pricing Inquiry Scripts
Pricing Inquiry Response Scripts for DJs
In the DJ world, the first person to answer the phone usually gets the booking. These scripts help you handle 'how much' questions professionally while you are busy mixing, setting up, or on the road between gigs.
The Standard 'How Much?' Inquiry
Use this for general party inquiries like birthdays or graduation celebrations.
I would love to help with your event! For private parties, my rates typically range from $300 to $800 depending on the length of the set and the sound system required. This includes my full music library and professional audio gear. To give you an exact price, I just need to know the date and the venue. Does that range fit within what you were planning?
Tips for this scenario
- -Always give a range first to qualify the lead before spending time on a detailed quote.
- -Mention that setup and teardown time is included so they know they are getting full performance hours.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
!Giving a flat price without knowing the venue size or guest count.
!Not asking for the event date immediately to check availability.
!Sounding unprofessional or having loud music in the background when answering a new inquiry.
!Failing to mention that you carry liability insurance (which many venues require).
!Letting a call go to a generic voicemail that doesn't mention your DJ business name.
