What Makes You Stand Apart From Other DJs?

What makes you stand apart from your competitors?

It’s no secret that this industry is very saturated!  The difference with A Ran is that we personalize the experience for our clients. Our testimonials are more than one generic comment. They’ll speak to how invested and prepared we are as well as how we make events memorable. Read our reviews and view our awards to see how we differ from other companies.  Here’s one example:

“The DJ was actually one of the vendors we were most nervous about because, from what we could tell, they all seemed the same (and mediocre). When we received the recommendation to try A Ran, we met with them and were immediately impressed. Beyond just knowing their stuff, they seemed to have a passion for music, a love of their job, and seemed really keen on personalizing the experience…

After the first meeting, we continued to be impressed with the company…

Because the music was so important to us, we still were not 100% sure how it would go on the big day. Well, it couldn’t have gone better!”- Erik & Martie

• Musical Background: This industry chose us. It began about 18 years ago when Ran MC-ed charitable events with organizations such as the American Cancer Society and the United Way. Because of Ran’s past experience with hosting a music video television show and being a musician for multiple national performing groups over the years, they began to ask that he also provided music for the events. It then grew to equipping them with lighting. Eventually guests and fellow volunteers were asking Ran to DJ for weddings, conventions, and other important events.

• Musicians and Sound Technicians: Here at A Ran Music Service, we are musicians and sound technicians as well as DJs, so sound quality is of the utmost importance to us. Ran, Niki, and Faylon all perform together in a band called, ‘Blitz’.  The 80’s definition of “Blitz” is a post-punk, new wave fad. We perform all of the greatest, most memorable new-wave and post-punk hits of the 1980’s. Think 80’s MTV. (facebook.com/blitz80s). Being in a band means that we utilize and purchase equipment on a consistent basis.  Operating the DJ business plus performing with the band means that we are constantly researching and studying information on top-notch sound equipment and implementing our findings in our company.  It means that we have an ample amount of back-up equipment readily available.  It also means that we own, not rent, our equipment. The equipment is well- maintained and in pristine condition.

 

• Family Owned: We are very proud to say that we are family-owned and operated! Ran, the Head DJ and Founder of our company, is the father.  Faylon, our Assistant DJ, Light, Sound, & Equipment Manager, is Ran’s son.  Niki, the Event Coordinator, is Ran’s daughter.  Here are a few benefits of hiring our family-owned and operated businesses:
  1. Natural Chemistry & Teamwork
  2. Greater Response Time & Better Communication
  3. Increased Accuracy and Commitment
  4. Strong Values
  5. Specialists in Our Positions
  6. Immersed in and Prepared for Our Duties
