Blog - Top tips on spending less time on admin and more time DJing
For many DJs doing the admin is a chore that no-one wants to do, much like the endless laundry pile at home. So why make it hard for yourself?
Let's be honest, who enjoys the admin side of being a DJ?
According to Sage research published in 2017, UK small businesses waste 120 hours on admin each year. Using the (2023/2024) national minimum wage as a basis (£10.42 per hour), that works out at over £1,250 per year.
Can you afford to waste over £1k?
There are clearly benefits to keeping on top of your admin. Clients are more likely to book a supplier who responds to emails in a timely fashion than those they struggle to get hold of. And no one wants a bad reputation for forgetting to turn up to events because they didn't have it in the diary.
There are a range of tools out there to help DJs. While you might think they are too expensive, looking at the cost of wasted time they will no doubt save you money in the long run.
The DJ Admin management system is designed to help improve the admin side of your business to allow you to focus on what really matters.
The focal point of the software is managing bookings, which are linked to payments, staffing and providing the facility for clients to add music requests.
The client area allows clients to see their booking details and add any music requests they may have to help you create the perfect set for their event.
Through the booking process, you can keep track of the quotes you've sent and follow these up if you don't hear anything back. You can specify the templates you want to use for each of these to speed up your response time by only needing to tweak your response rather than drafting from scratch each time.
