So I have this new business idea and need some feedback
 

As some of you may know I used to own a mobile DJ business back in the early 90's and gave it up when I started my ad business.Anyhow,I'm thinking since i now have over 7000 songs on my puter and needing a little extra income I may get back into it.

Here's my question though,I have a shitload of 60's-80's music and am thinking about a new DJ business i would call RETRO JOE'S,I would specialize in older birthday parties,high school reunions and the like and would have a slogan something like No Hip,NO Hop,Just Classic Rock-N-Pop


What do you honestly think?

This will be also serve as a repository for some of that classic rock-n-pop like this

All I know is I'm making a limo business

I like the slogan.

Got it as well as My Sharona and another Knack song that some have forgotten

It's an interesting idea. I guess the problem I'd see with it is just that the market for it would be pretty small. There are billion HS dances/parties/etc., but there are only going to be a handful of people who would be looking for a DJ in that target market. As long as you don't have to put in a lot of work for it otherwise, you might as well give it a go. But if you have to buy a bunch of equipment, I'd be wary until you quantify the true market for it.

That said, I'm 27, so I may not be an expert on that market.

I guess the big question is, what would it cost you to find out? How much would it cost you to give it a go?

I doubt the market is there too but if you don't spend money it won't hurt to try.

Can't hurt. Follow your dreams.

Exactly,I want a smaller market,I'd be a specialty DJ,therefore I'd get a little more by the hour but those looking for that era 1 hit wonders and the like would be getting a whole lot more and not some (excuse me if I sound rude) some young dipshit who is constantly telling his older crowd,"sorry I don't have that."

Dinny thinks this is a great idea.

Yep. Like I said, if it doesn't take a lot of work/cash to try it, you might as well.

And I DON'T want to work every weekend,been there done that,but when I have parties here with older crowds I'm always getting,"holy shit I forgot all about that song!"

Add in free drinks to my hourly fee and bam instant party :D

And for those that want to boogie like they did in the 70's I even got some classic 1-2 hit funksters that are never heard from anymore....
