My name is Chase aka DJ Turn Up, and here’s a brief look at our company’s history.

I started DJing when I was 14 years old by playing music at my neighborhood pool. Eventually someone from the neighborhood hired me to DJ a local elementary school dance, and after that I was hooked. At the time my favorite part of DJing was feeling the energy of the crowd when I dropped a good song. I loved what I was doing, but I wanted to DJ larger and more complicated events. So I got a job working at Wendy’s, and would spend my paychecks on equipment and advertising. I soon went from DJing one event a month, to one a weekend. And then realized that I would need more DJs to keep up with the events that we were booking, so I trained a few of my friends.

From there I was able to quit my job and work for myself full time. Over the past decade I grew my team from just a few friends in South Florida, to over 100 DJs in a few states. Following this success we then decided to start a Photo Booth company, and called it Premium Booths. Around this time I also started working as an event coordinator. My experience as an event coordinator eventually rubbed off on my team, and as a result we now train all of our DJs in event management. We find that DJing an event is so much easier when you understand how the whole timeline works (and honestly sometimes eliminates the need to hire a day of coordinator). We also decided that we would train all of our DJs to understand music from the 40s, to today’s top 40. This is helpful because now our DJs know how to keep a dance floor filled with even the most diverse of crowds.

About two years ago I DJ’d a Wedding for someone that owned a local Wedding venue, and they were so impressed with our attention to detail and event knowledge, that they asked us to run their whole event department. Soon following that I found myself training DJs from all over the country in music theory, event coordinating, and even how to start an event business.

The reason I’m mentioning this is because if you decide to hire us, you’re not just hiring a company that is good at DJing, you’re hiring the company that sets the standard. I would love to chat with you more about what we have to offer, and how we can make your big day special. Call or text me anytime at 772.214.2511.

Thank you!
