Why Should You Hire B-Boy Productions As Your DJ or Event Agency?

Why Choose B-Boy

January and February are typically when most of our DJ and Wedding Singer bookings happen.  Couples use the holidays to get engaged and then begin securing vendors shortly thereafter.  With a plethora of entertainment options available, I get these two questions often from engaged couples:

*Why should I book a B-Boy Productions entertainer (DJ, Band, Wedding Singer, Officiant, etc.)?
*Why do you charge more than the other companies out there?

Those are great questions which require great answers.  For us, these answers are easy.

  1. We are an established DJ and Event Agency.  We’ve done this for 18 years.  You can count on us to be there for you.  Staying in business that long isn’t the norm for most entertainment agencies and only comes with being the ultimate professionals and being dependable when it matters most.  Why chance your event on a company that has a limited track record (or none at all)?
  2. All of our entertainers and DJs have 2+ years of training before working your event.  We treat each event like it’s the Super Bowl and leave nothing to chance.  You deserve the best of the best.  Each entertainer has spent two years under the tutelage of our most senior and requested staff.  That’s over 100 events that they’ve watched or participated in (beyond our ongoing monthly trainings) before coming to your party.
  3. The DJ assigned to your event is your entertainer.  Nothing can be more frustrating that talking with somebody from a company all the way up to your event and then you show up only to see someone else you’ve never met as your entertainer.  From day one, we’ve held strong to this principle of NO “flip flopping”.  We go to great lengths to make sure a good rapport is established with your entertainer prior to the event so they can truly be an extension of you at your event.
  4. We have back-up.  Back-up gear is a given.  But what happens if your live entertainer or DJ gets in a car accident on the way to the event or has a medical emergency?  Thankfully, this has only happened once in our company history. We always keep one of our regular entertainers “off the schedule” as a back-up on each event day.  They are “on call” and can jump at a moment’s notice so you can be assured to have a B-Boy Productions employee who knows our gear, our music library, and has our style to ensure a B-Boy type party!  A single DJ/Entertainer will not be able to provide this crucial insurance to your event.  It may be rare, but when you need it, that’s when you’ll want it, and you know you have it with B-Boy Productions.
  5. We are the preferred vendor at nearly every venue in our local markets.  When venues refer out vendors, they are putting their own reputation on the line.  That’s why they only select the best of the best to be included on their referral vendor lists.  Not only do we have the required liability insurance that these venues require, but we make their venue look good by giving their clients incredible parties while being easy to work with!  Doing this in one local market takes time…we’ve done it in THREE markets (Florida, California and New York)!
  6. Instant customer service!  If I had to pick an area of our business that is our calling card, it would be here.  We reply to e-mails and phone calls almost immediately (even if we are at events) just to make sure you know it has been received. We keep our phones on 24/7 and have our e-mails pushed through to our phones well past office hours.  We hope to exceed expectations way before the event happens and this is just one way we demonstrate that.
  7. We know and HAVE music.  Our DJs and office staff spend hours looking for all the best music and trying new mixes.  With paid subscriptions to various record pools, our library is well over 60,000 songs and constantly growing.  You’ll never hear one our DJs say, “We don’t have that song,”  or “I’ve never heard of that song.”  If it’s available to us, chances are we have it.  This allows us to be extremely ready for any type of party thrown our way or change directions on a dime at an event.  All  of our edits are clean!  No need to worry about the explicit versions being played at your event.
  8. Your party will be rocked!   At the end of the day, this is what will be remembered and what truly matters.  Sure you can find some bargain entertainment options, but why roll the dice on such a crucial part of your event’s success? We will make sure your party is talked about for years to come (in a good way of course!).

We know we may not be a fit for everyone but no matter who you go with for entertainment, don’t base your decision solely on price.   National statistics show that within one week after their wedding reception, 80% of brides wish they would’ve made entertainment their top priority. It is what your guests will remember when they leave your wedding.  Hope this is helpful!
