DJ's event planning process
The Consultation
The consultation, commonly referred to as the "Visioning session," aims to bring order to the current situation and transform it into a meticulously crafted and strategic event plan. Throughout the visioning session, we will thoroughly examine the questionnaire that has been transmitted to you during the booking of the consultation. You will be requested to complete the associated form in advance of the consultation call, as it will serve as the central focus and the framework for our discussion. Following the formulation of a preliminary project plan, I will proceed to draft a proposal that encapsulates your concepts, the event, and your requirements. This proposal will encompass the range of services I can offer to fulfill your event-related needs.
DJ's EP takes great pride in the resources offered to cater to my clients' requirements. We invite you to peruse our testimonial page to gain insight into the experiences of others who have engaged in DJ's EP Visioning sessions.
