Providing a recent valid CRB or Disclosure Scotland certificate does not affect ranking, but if you have one we can put CRB Approved against your listing.
We do not need to see an actual certificate - instead you can provide a couple of key details including the certificate number and signatory. None of these details will be published or forwarded to clients.
This does not guarantee that a client will accept the certificate under their own interpretation of the portability rules..
Tell us which recognised professional trade memberships you hold and we will show them on your listing.

In this section you can fine tune the settings associated with your directory listings to ensure that you are being seen by the right customers.
All clients requesting quotes are asked to select a budget range (Budget / Average Priced / Premium DJ) based on this advice. They may also elect to receive a range of quotes. If you continually receive quote requests out of your normal price range then this is the best way to narrow them down.

Receive quotes for Lowest Cost, Least Experienced DJs

Receive quotes for Average Price, Typical Experience DJs

Receive quotes for Premium Cost, Very Experienced DJs
Update Pricing BandsThis feature allows you to automatically send a PDF document to enquirers as soon as a new quote request arrives. This blog post explores some of the reasons why you might wish to do this. To use this feature, you must first upload document(s) you wish to use. Once approved they will appear here - you may then assign (enable or disable) them as required.
You will still be sent the lead details in the usual way. Clients who request a RANGE of quotes will be sent the AVERAGE PRICE PDF (if one exists).

Update These Settings
You are currently listed with needadisco.com as a FULL MEMBER. Your Coverage Area entitlement is currently 31 postal areas of which 3 are being used.
Your account is operating normally and your subscription expires on 01/11/2012. We will send you renewal reminders during the month prior to expiry via the Log.
You may, if you wish, purchase additional subscription time now and this will be added to the end of your current subscription. This allows you to take advantage of the current rate.
All payments are handled online by PayPal. You can pay with a credit or debit card, bank balance or PayPal credit. You do not need to have a PayPal account to make payments - simply choose the credit/debit card option when you go through to the PayPal website.
Basic 12 month subscription, one-off payment
£39.00
Once you have a basic subscription in place, you can add additional business identities for just £20 / €30 per annum. These additional identities take all of the same characteristics of your "master" account and are typically used:
Each additional identity can be completely customised in the same way as your primary listing, so you may target different budget ranges, geographies, age groups, venue types and so on.
First purchase an additional identity, below. We will then duplicate your existing record and send you details on how to amend the new identity.
Additional Business Identity for existing subscribers - 12 months
£20
Your basic subscription allows you 31 postal areas in your Geography area. You may increase this in batches of 12 postal areas (or Irish Counties) at £20 / €30 per batch of 12 per annum. Your allowance will be increased accordingly and you may then add new areas in the usual way. There are 135 areas in total across the UK plus 26 Irish Counties.
If your basic subscription is outside the first month of operation, then the additional coverage area payments will act as "balancing" payments the first time they are added. For example, if your current basic subscription allows for 12 areas and has 9 months remaining, then you add 12 additional areas, we will amend your account to show 10 months remaining at 24 areas. In subsequent years the renewals will be concurrent.
Additional 12 coverage areas - existing subscription

By default, the Member Dashboard is publicly visible and quote requests have individual PIN numbers to ensure that only validated users can access them.
By moving to Secure Mode you will need to provide a password when accessing Member Dashboard but leads no longer require individual PINs. Successful use of the service is dependent upon session cookies, so your browser must have cookies enabled for needadisco.com otherwise it will not work correctly.
This feature is currently in BETA test mode

Publicly Visible (default)
The coverage area which you specify determines which leads we send to you.
We will only send you leads for parties taking place in venues within the green coloured areas. You will NOT receive quote requests for events taking place in the white coloured areas.
On needadisco.com, an area is the same as a Postcode Area, for example RG = Reading and nearby towns. You can specify your coverage area one level lower than this - the Postal Outcode. So it is possible to cover RG1 and RG2 but not RG3 or RG4 by being specific when selecting the areas.
Your current entitlement is 31 Areas or parts thereof. If you wish to increase this, check out the upgrade options available on the Money Matters tab (above).
The areas coloured green on the map represent the whole or partial areas that you have selected.
