listing all of your music. Some DJs have one book
that is sorted alphabetically by artist, and another one
listed by song title. I prefer to keep them listed by
artist, but this is a matter of personal preference.
Some DJs put a sheet at the front of the book listing
the rules. It may list things like how to properly
handle the microphone, proper Karaoke etiquette, etc.
I don't do this personally, as people generally won't
read it anyway – but feel free to do so if you wish.
You might also include information on how to hire
you – use this extra page as an advertising tool rather
than just a list of rules.
A good, sturdy binder should be used. I keep a zipper-
pouch insert at the front of the book, for pens, request
slips, and business cards. The request slips can be
printed at home and cut down to size, including your
name and/or logo for a professional look.
You can usually find inexpensive pens in a bulk pack
at a store such as Sam's Club or CostCo. The cheaper
the better, because your pens
will
walk off quite
frequently.
Another good investment is to use plastic sheet
protectors. This step will help avoid your book being
ruined in the event of a drink spill. This can be tedious
