3.0 out of 5 stars OK, but needs more information!, April 28, 2000
I've read all the DJ books out there, and this one seems to miss many important technical points. It doesn't cover much on beat matching and scratching, and the song lists are dated. It is easy to read and does have some good information on real business setups, but you can get that almost anywhere!

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS THE BEST BOOK OUT THERE!, January 30, 2000
By Keith Robinson (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
Stacy did an excellent job writing The Mobile DJ Handbook. It is by far the most comprehensive and easy-to-read book about DJing on the market. I was inspired and learned a truckload of great ideas that are sure money-makers. This book will help both beginners and pros to be successful. I believe it should be required reading for every mobile disc jockey who aspires to be a professional and/or run a profitable business. In it you will find valuable information on developing, expanding and marketing your company; buying music and equipment; setting your price; running events and a whole lot more. I highly recommend you buy it!

3.0 out of 5 stars An excellent guide for the aspiring DJ, September 1, 1998
By A Customer
The Mobile DJ Handbook was written as an excellent guide for the aspiring DJ to begin his or her new business, however it is also a great refresher for the experienced mobile DJ as well. The book contains great ideas on how to expand and develop your business through learning to market and sell your company.

The Handbook covers all of the bases when it comes to your business. You can find sample brochures, letters, contracts, and information sheets. For the beginner, there is information on buying equipment, running your shows, setting your price, and essentially, how to be a professional. The mobile dj field is a fun and exciting business to be involved in and this book will help you be successful in it.

Probably one of the best things about the Mobile DJ Handbook is the fact that it is written in down to earth language. By taking advice and ideas from many of the industry leaders, Stacy has made the path much easier for the first time company owner.
