Have you ever worked with a mentor? Have you ever been a mentor?

Working with a mentor is key to becoming a successful DJ. Learning the ropes from someone who’s worked in the industry, made mistakes, and can pass on the best tips to you will make your road a whole lot easier.

The person doing the mentoring gets a lot out of the experience, too. Remember what it was like to start out in the business? Why not help out someone else? You probably managed to learn from a lot of people, even if you weren’t actually mentored by one person in particular. Pass on the good will!
