How To Start Your Own Event as a DJ | Stop Waiting for Bookings and Build Your Brand I Episode 17

Paul Hutchinson Season 1 Episode 17

If you’re a DJ who’s tired of waiting around for promoters to give you a chance, this episode is going to help you take control.

I’m breaking down how to start your own event without losing your mind or your money. We cover the steps you need before you book a venue, how to avoid the classic mistakes that leave DJs stressed, and the simple structure that makes your night actually work.

I also share lessons from my own journey running events over the years. These steps opened more doors for me than any single club booking ever did.

In this episode we cover:
 • Why DJs should run their own events
 • How to pick the right venue
 • What to avoid so you don’t get skint or overwhelmed
 • How to build a night people care about
 • How to promote your event
 • Tickets vs free entry
 • How to run the night properly
 • What to do after the event to grow faster
