We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Rj “MacMuzic” McLean. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Rj “MacMuzic” below.
Rj “MacMuzic”, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. What’s something you believe that most people in your industry (or in general) disagree with?
I think I would keep it the same. I’ve gone through many lows. Without those lows the highs aren’t there or aren’t as high. I believe to make it to the top of the mountain those peeks and valleys only make you or your business stronger. I thank God for lows. Covid. Definitely put a damper on my dj services but it also took my photography to another level. It also gave me time to get my videography started.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
I’m RJ McLean. During school people called me Mac (short for McLean) so that’s where the Mac in MacMuzic comes from . Music is what I love. I graduated with a degree in music. My mom is a singer and my dad was in the presidents band. So I have a little of everything music in me. I own and operate MacMuzic Productions. We started with just dj services. We then added lighting and photo-booth. From there we added photography. Just recently we have added videography as a service as well.
We are a little different then most in the dj portion bc we can dj for all genres , backgrounds age groups etc. Our business is also different now bc we can provide 1 stop shop opportunities. Dj services , photography, videography, lighting and photo-booth.
I am most proud of the growth. From one service to 5 or more. From providing services to one Ave group or one race to all age groups and all races.

Any fun sales or marketing stories?
I think one of my favorite marketing stories is something that happens multiple times a year. For someone who is getting married , to come to Florida to have a destination wedding and choose me instead of all the other choices is always a compliment to me. All they have is to go on my Instagram or website and look and decide I’m the choice. It’s a compliment to my page and my history of doing different wedding s for different age groups and backgrounds. Booking destination weddings and/or Photoshoots is always humbling experience.
How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?
Working the 9-5 while trying to build my business after a while took a toll on me. I won’t say impossible but to be able to market my business the way I wanted ,practice my dj skills, my photography skills etc. There just wasn’t enough time in a day. Instead I quit the 9-5 and did minimal side jobs like ,Uber ,instacart etc where I could make my own schedule. At that point I saw a big jump in bookings and followers etc. more time to provide quality material
