DJs Should Switch Their Instagram Profile to a Business Profile

Clutch DJ Tips

In 2016, Instagram rolled out a set of Business Tools to help companies of all sizes better understand their followers and grow their businesses.

One of the tools introduced was business profiles. Unlike personal profiles, business profiles enable companies to get insights about their followers and posts, and promote posts (run ads). Business profiles also include contact info, making it easier for customers to connect with companies.

However, many DJs have still not switched their personal profile to a business profile. Thankfully, DJ Eyecon has put together a video that explains the benefits of doing so.

Based in South Carolina, Eyecon is an official Rane DJ and former Red Bull 3Style competitor. He currently holds residencies at Malibus Surf Bar and Oz Myrtle Beach.

Watch his video above.

Jonathan Shecter aka “Shecky Green,” the co-founder of The Source magazine and current Editor-In-Chief for Cuepoint at Medium, was recently a guest on the Reflections of a DJ (R.O.A.D.) podcast.

A former director of programming for the Wynn, Shecky played a key role in negotiating DJ AM’s groundbreaking deal with Las Vegas’ PURE Nightclub in 2006.

During the convo, the show’s co-host Crooked asked Shecky about how he helped broker the deal. Shecky discusses how the negotiations went down and how it raised the bar for DJs going forward. He also talks about how the death of AM marked the beginning of the EDM era.

Reflections of a DJ is hosted by Las Vegas DJs Crooked, D-Miles, Neva, and Jaime Da Great.

Watch the clip and listen to the full interview below. New episodes go up on Wednesdays on iTunes and SoundCloud.

The Chainsmokers have been on fire since their 2014 breakout hit, “#Selfie.” Along with releasing follow-up hits like “Don’t Let Me Down,” “Closer,” and “Something Just Like This,” the duo has been touring the world and holding down a residency at Las Vegas’ XS Nightclub. With all their globetrotting, it’s safe to say the ‘smokers know a thing or two about traveling.

Check out their must-have travel items below.

Teenage Engineering OP-1 Portable Synthesizer

“It’s the amazing sampling gadget we have been using in a lot of our songs. It’s super small and convenient to travel with.”

Mophie Battery Packs

“Do we even really need to explain? You got the new iPhone update your sh#t is dying instantly.”

Neck Pillows

“This is sort of self-explanatory, but man we got like 10,000 of these. The trick is to go for the memory foam.”

Power Converters

“Nothing is worse than getting to another country and not having the right power adapter.”
