FAQs
Who is Focus & retreat for?
Focus & Retreat is for any mobile DJ who wants to take a proactive approach to developing their performance and business skills. It is open to both full-time and part-time DJs. It is suitable for single operators as well as those who manage multi-operator DJ businesses.
The event is also designed so that all DJs, regardless of previous experience, will be inspired by the content and leave with plenty of new ideas. If you want to develop as a DJ, grow your DJ business, and are willing to invest time and money in making that happen then Focus & Retreat is definitely for you!
Will there be an exhibition?
This is an intimate event, not a large scale exhibition. There will be a few supporting brands that we will announce over the next few months.
How many delegates will there be?
The idea of our Focus & Retreat is that it is an intimate event. We’d like all delegates to have a chance to network with one another at some point throughout the two days, so delegate numbers are limited to just 53.
These places are available on a first-come, first-served basis. When they’re gone, they’re gone!
Why THe new forest?
We’ve been based at Solihull for a few years for the conference and wanted a change of scenery! The New Forest promises to deliver with it being an area of outstanding natural beauty matched with a venue that is animal friendly, stunning food and an inspirational backdrop to the whole experience.
It’s accessed easily by road with onsite car parking and also close to Southampton Airport for those traveling from further afield.
I don’t buy into all this educational stuff, why should I attend?
There will be lots of information and ideas on offer, which you are then free to decide if you want to take on board. However, more than anything, the Focus & Retreat event is about taking time out of your schedule to focus on your business and personal development as well as sharing ideas, your knowledge and helping everyone else improve themselves and their business model.
It’s a smaller more intimate event than our main conference and will attract those that enjoy internal collaboration.
Who else is going?
Past Conferences have been attended by a variety of DJs, of all ages, covering a range of different levels of experience. This is not about getting the elite of the industry together to boast, it is about DJs who want to learn, network and collaborate together.
This Focus & Retreat is a brand new event and we expect attendees will be previous conference goers as well as attracted DJs that want to attend a more laid back approach to business development.
