Attention: Clients and Banquet Facilities Sales Manager,

“Hello, I am Randy Ketchum, owner/operator/disc jockey of Ketchum Music Disc Jockey Service.  This letter is written to inform your organization, establishment and sales marketing department of information pertaining to our business and it’s practices.  The information contained herein is requested to be placed on file with your business for future reference, in consideration of conducting business with you, your clients, and your establishment.”

            Our business was established in 1992 and we have served numerous banquet facilities, churches, hotels, halls and restaurants in  the greater central Michigan and outlying areas.  We have and are still currently operating only a single disc jockey system, with no intentions of expanding to a multi-system operation.  We have never missed an event nor double booked any potential customer.  All of our clients have a written contract with us and we maintain a close business relationship with them prior to and during their event.  Also, every attempt is made to inspect/survey each facility in advance and establish communications with the management and/or staff, in agreement of how the establishment/disc jockey maintain a proper business relationship during each event.

            This we DO:  Attempt to know the facility, understand and obey the policies, procedures or rules governing the facility and it’s event(s), if given the appropriate information.  Dress as requested.  Conduct attitude, manners and personality in accordance as requested at each event by client or establishment.  Be aware and observant of any unusual behavior or surroundings, and have any necessary actions taken, by the event or facility personnel.  Converse with the facility management/staff as often as necessary to insure optimum event results.  Give of myself one-hundred plus percent etc., to make sure the event is a success.

            This we Do NOT:  Arrive late.  Perform magic acts, skits, comedy routines, tell jokes, humiliate or intimidate anyone, or use obnoxious props.  Because of health hazards and recent events that have plagued some establishments throughout the nation, our notice to any establishment we operate in, is that we have never and continue not to use any fireworks, pyrotechnics, sparklers, smokers, foggers, matches, lighters, and any flammable, chemical or combustible material.  Also we refrain from using any type of liquids, such as bubbles, due to the liability of persons slipping, falling, inhaling and soiling their clothing or themselves.  Likewise, we do not, nor encourage the use of  confetti/streamer devices due to liability and extreme clean-up.  We are not vulgar, do not smoke, do not eat, drink alcohol, and take intermission type breaks during any event.

            Although we advertise in several local publications, marketing our business to your establishment and your customers has now become our primary focus.  We have become a full time business.  As to possibly help us fill our calendar weekends and business days, I have included personal business information that you may keep on file, and brochures to pass out, in which you may encourage your customers to use.  If you feel the brochures are an inconvenience, please let me know.  If you need additional brochures at any time, also please let me know.

            “I would like to thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to read this letter and information.  I may have performed here in the past, or will perform in your facility in the future, but for now I would like to secure  a close business relationship with your organization and facility.”

Sincerely,

Randy Ketchum
