Hi there, I ran my own DJ/ Sound company for 30 years. Depends on what function and the quality of guests ( VIP/ the normal local party people) Normally just to be at the place, behind the desks and have DJ skills ( read your crowd , communicate with guests, have microphone skills, and very important know the PA/DJ system settings) you can charge the client for your labour about R220-00 per hour for a normal 6 to 7 hour shift ( mobile DJ for Weddings/ birthdays etc) With your own equipment, you can charge additional fee of R850-00. So as a high standard DJ with pro level equipment and lighting ( intelligent effects from Martin Professionals/ Robe etc) you can have between R5000 and R8000 per night. With day functions you can devide it ( reason people normally don’t dance during day) If you do an outdoor Psy//Trance gig, you can make R20,000-00 for the day. Ask if you guys have any questions. ? Cheers
