Voicemail Greetings
Professional Voicemail Greetings for DJs
When you are behind the decks or loading in heavy subwoofers, you physically cannot answer the phone. These scripts ensure you don't lose a $2,000 wedding reception booking just because you were busy beat-matching or sound-checking. Professionalism starts before you ever play the first track.
Standard Business Hours
Use this during your normal office hours when you are busy with admin work or prep.
Thanks for calling [Your Business Name]! We are currently in the studio prepping setlists and checking gear for this weekend's events. We'd love to help make your birthday party or corporate event a hit. Please leave your name, the date of your event, and your phone number. We will get back to you within two hours to discuss your music needs. If you want to check our availability immediately, head to our website's booking form.
Tips for this scenario
- -Mentioning 'prepping setlists' shows the caller you are active and professional.
- -Always ask for the event date first so you can check your calendar before calling back.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
!Recording your greeting in a loud room with music playing—it sounds unprofessional and hard to hear.
!Not asking for the event date, which forces you to play 'phone tag' just to see if you're even available.
!Having a full mailbox so new clients who want to spend $1,500 on a DJ can't even leave a message.
!Failing to mention your website where they could find pricing or a gallery of your past events.
!Using the default 'the person at extension 5 is not available' greeting which lacks personality.
