Is Expansion The Metric For Success?

Is Expansion The Metric For Success?

Recently, there was a discussion in the private event DJ world about how the McDonald's model should be considered as something for DJ companies to emulate - selling services for cheap (and potentially even a subpar product) to produce big net revenue numbers.

I believe there is. We discuss all of this and more on this episode.
