I always had a passion for music and entertainment.
During the time I spent as a photographer I have never met, seen, or heard a
Disc-Jockey that provided their clients with any quality customer service. Being a
quality minded and customer service oriented individual, I decided to open a business,
called Mike the Music Man DJ Service in 1989.
During this time, we offered Photography and DJ
Services as a package deal to our clients. This concept was very successful and both
businesses began to soar. However, as the businesses grew, I realized that if you
grow too quickly without good employees behind you, the quality of service you provide
your clients may be sacrificed. I found out that my love for music and performing
entertainment services far surpassed my love for photography.
In 1990, I decided to phase out Loving Memories
Photography business and decided to put 150% of my efforts towards Mike the Music Man.
I concentrated on being the best quality DJ service not only in the area but to
make a mark in the DJ industry as a whole. We know our competition and we are
sensitive to the needs of our clients. This is what makes us the best in the area as
well as in several states.
You set yourself aside from your competition by
providing more than they do for the price. Then, you add the best quality you can to
that product or service, coupled together with the best customer service, and your end
result is a very successful business.
Mike the Music Man continued to grow and in 1994, I
incorporated the business to what is known today as All Occasion Music, Inc.
I am very grateful to my clients. Even though we are all subjected to life's
obstacles, the success of All Occasion Music, Inc. has been the direct result of our
clients' satisfaction; without our happy clients there is no All Occasion Music, Inc.
Today, we are a multi-system company with several
DJ's and DJ Assistants on our staff. We belong to several professional
DJ organizations. To be a part of these organizations, we have to
maintain a high standard as a DJ service. This is where the division between a good
quality DJ service and one that is not, occurs.
Eighty-five percent of all our clients come from word of
mouth referrals. The other fifteen is from bridal shows, World Wide Web
advertisements, the logos that are displayed on our fleet of vehicles, or on our garments
that we wear very proudly. That has to send a message to anyone considering All
Occasion Music, Inc. as his or her DJ service. We are the DJ of choice for many
hotels, including Marriott's, Westfields, Holiday Inns, Sheratons, Ritz Carltons, as well
as, the most elegant dinner cruise ship on the Potomac River, the Odyssey III. Some
of our corporate clients have included Jones Communication, Virginia Power, United Parcel
Service, Government Mico Resource (GMR) Incorporated, Software Productivity Consortium,
Stafford & Prince William & Fairfax County Schools, Avanco International, The Well
Spouse Foundation, Compucare, Hattech Incorporated, and The British Club.
