Alright guys, Jonathan Ellaskins, The DJ Tutor. Now, as you do or don't know, I have been doing videos on YouTube for absolutely yonks. I also have the Facebook page which is dedicated to the private one-to-one DJ lessons via Skype or we can go through private Facebook message. But what I've done now is after a while I looked at all of the comments through YouTube and realised, as you can imagine, I can't answer every single comment. So what I've decided to do, it's actually open now, I have opened a closed Facebook page dedicated for the new DJ or the DJ who wants a little bit more information. What can you expect to get? Well, I will be uploading video content to that Facebook page and only to that Facebook page.

1:23 Let's say I can't answer a question

Now, I will of course still be uploading to YouTube and other areas around the web. But what I will be doing is any video I upload to this closed group will only go to that closed group. It's not going to be copied anywhere else. Secondly, if you ask me a question in a comment underneath that video, it will be answered personally by myself. Also, I'll be doing some live streaming, probably three or four times a week. And it's not going to be just daytime, say UK GMT 2 o'clock. I may be doing at 7 o'clock in the morning GMT or 10 o'clock at night GMT, which means wherever you are around the world, you should be able to watch at least one or two of the streams per week, if not per month, hopefully per week.

And again, those streams will be recorded and they will be on the Facebook page for you to watch again and again. Now, let's say I can't answer a question. Well, I will do my own. I will do my utmost to make sure I find someone who can. So what we're getting is we're getting a little bit of community, of a community of new DJs who can, you know, a bit of banter, ask questions and I will be uploading content. But here's the beauty as well. Let's imagine you ask me a question on a video that I've already uploaded. I will then decide maybe it's a good idea to make a video to answer you. So not only will you have your answer, but it will be in video content. Now, the analogy there is what would you prefer to read the book or watch the film?

3:03 Forward seeing, private

This is why video content works, because you don't have to sit there and read information and take it in. The information is given to you via a video that you can stop, start, rewind, stop, start as much as you want. OK, so this closed group is for a limited amount of people as well. So don't expect, please, to be on there in six months and have 500 people. It's not going to happen. It's going to be for a handful of people. That's it. So if you want to take part in March of this year, 2018, when it will start, you need to pay the fee in February of 2018. And then if you want to continue the next month, of course, you pay the fee in March for the following month. All right. So if you want any more information, what I'll do in the description below this video, I'll put all the information and how you can take part.

And I look forward to that. And I look forward to seeing you there. All right. And don't forget, the beauty about this is it's personal between me and you, not like YouTube or anywhere else where you post a comment and I will do my best to answer it. But there's so many, it's practically impossible to do that. All right. I look forward to seeing you and also in the live streams as well. I am also still doing the private videos. Sorry, private video, the private lessons through Facebook. But private message and also Skype. So if you are still interested in having a one-to-one lesson by myself, Jonathan, then get in touch as well via the email address down there. Practice and enjoy. That was a bit of a mouthful, wasn't it?

Let's get DJing. Yeah.
