March 1, 2010 - BADJA Monthy Meeting 6:30-8:30pm
MEETING @ DAMON'S GRILL - HUNT VALLEY

TOPIC: Google Search Engine Optimization (SEO) by Chris Teer
To kick off this month’s programs, we’re bringing in Randy & Janice to make a "Lasting Impression" with business cards that represent not only what you do, but who you are.  They are graphic, fun, and permanent, and show your personality.  They have also expanded their product base to include all types of signage, banners, vehicle magnets, t-shirts, etc., etc. 
They will also be offering special deals at this presentation so be sure to come check it out (deposits will be required).
Search Engine Optimization

Also this month…
Ever wonder why you’re not getting the business you’re expecting from your web presence?  Wondering why when you look yourself up on a web search engine, you’re not listed as high as you’d like in the rankings?
I’ve asked Chris Teer, a webmaster/developer at a Fortune 500 company, to come in and teach us DJs some “real world” knowledge and experience about Search Engine Optimization;  giving a “high-level” explanation on how search engines work and some tricks you can do to help boost your web presence.  He will not only explain the technology, but he will give examples and advice on what we can do with our websites to make them more visible online!

MEETING @ DAMON'S GRILL - HUNT VALLEY

TOPIC: DJ INTELLIGENCE
Feelin’ a little “old school” and overwhelmed when it comes to organizing all of your job leads and booked gigs? If you answered “yes” to this question, then you HAVE to come out to our next meeting on February 1st and listen to Larry Adler and Rich Malinksi present “DJ Intelligence”!

Featured in Mobile Beat, DJ Times, ClubWorld, and other various magazines and DJ expos, DJ Intelligence allows you to throw away those stacks and stacks of papers and contracts, and now lets you all manage it from your website. And instead of constantly sending out MANY emails to every single client, they can now fill out everything and submit it all to you online, all from your site!

Upload your entire music library catalog for clients to view and to request songs.
Allow the ability for clients to check your availability and submit a complete online event booking.

Provide a password-protect client area for a booked client to communicate with you and everything that’s related to that client. Contracts, song requests, itineraries, etc. are now all organized into one convenient space.
Upload your entertainment packages and additional offerings, and now provide the capability to give your potential client an automated quote generator.
…And oh yeah, DJ Intelligence has also gladly supplied us with a few complimentary subscriptions to DJ Intelligence! You don’t want to miss this one!
