What Do DJs Think of the Be a Wedding DJ Book?
“What I knew about DJing in general was extremely limited, and I had no idea how to DJ a wedding. I found the book, Be a Wedding DJ, and I have to say it is a very good primer on the entire process. I had purchased another “how to DJ” book, but it was very dated, and I found it not very useful. Be a Wedding DJ not only was up to date but had lots of great information on equipment, the wedding process, support equipment that would be useful, business processes, and more. It is the complete guide on performing for weddings! 5 stars!” – Norman Fox
“I will say it’s fantastic! I’ve been DJing for 25 years and doing weddings for 20, and your breakdown for everything is the best I’ve read.” – Mike Gradian

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How much for this Be a Wedding DJ book?
Just $19.99. And you’ll likely save LOTS of money (way more than $19.99) on equipment, promotion, your website, taxes, and more, thanks to the tips in this book. I’ve blown lots of money (ugh!) on things that in the end didn’t bring my wedding DJ business more clients and income, so I’ve shared those in the eBook, so you hopefully don’t make those mistakes too.
Q. Is this a physical book?
No, Be a Wedding DJ is in an eBook format, making it easy for you to read it on any device (tablet, phone, computer, etc.). You can easily bring this along with you to gigs as a resource whenever you may need it. Plus, there are several helpful links throughout the book that, well, wouldn’t work if this was in physical form.
Q. Is the Be a Wedding DJ book just a collection of everything that’s already on the website?
No! Not at all. The vast majority of this eBook is not available on the website. A few sections are similar to articles on the website, because, well yeah, it’s the same equipment we recommend on the website as in the book, and for other reasons like that. But most of the eBook has not been published anywhere else.
Q. Is my credit card secure on the purchase page?
Absolutely. We sell the eBook through Gumroad, one of the most popular sites for creators to sell their products. Here’s their information on secure payments.
Q. Does this guarantee my DJ business’s success?
Well, of course not. Starting a successful wedding DJ business is still challenging. For any number of factors, your business might not succeed. But I do think this guide can give you a tremendous amount of help that could get your wedding DJ business up and running and going strong. But of course there’s no guarantee of success, financially or otherwise.
