We Want to Hear From You!

At Marx Entertainment we always want to learn about the experience our customer has had with our company. It’s important to learn from our customers - the good, the bad and the ugly – even though the bad and the ugly are terms we quite frankly are not accustomed to. J Regardless, it’s very important for us to learn, grow and continue to get better overall.

So here is the question for you… HOW CAN WE DO BETTER?

A lot of companies are worried about finding new customers, they forget about what it takes to keep their current ones. Not for us, we want to be the first thought in our customer’s mind when they need services for weddings, DJ’s, parties, game rentals, photo booths, etc. – Or when someone asks, hey do you know of a good DJ? We want their first response to be, YES – Marx Entertainment.

Our number one concern is our customer and our number one goal is to provide the best entertainment service possible. For that reason, we never assume and we always deliver on the expectations set forth. That requires a trained, courteous and professional staff -and we’re proud and grateful to possess such a wonderful team.

Please take a moment and share what you think worked for your event or what could have worked better. Everything you share will truly help us improve and again, that is our main priority.

C’mon let loose - let us know your thoughts, comments and suggestions. You can post below, post on our Facebook page or send us an email.

We appreciate your time and your feedback!

THANK YOU!

Keeping up with Marx...

What makes a great Event Manager?

The LinkedIn Event Community found these five attributes to be at the top of the list, and we agree!

Do you know how to plan a successful event?

After 3 decades of being in the industry and watching some of the best intentions fail, we think you should keep these 7-steps in mind when planning your event.

Do you know how to plan a successful event?

After 3 decades of being in the industry and watching some of the best intentions fail, we think you should keep these 7-steps in mind when planning your event.

1. Plan your event at least 12-months in advance of your target date.

2. Ask yourself these questions - What is your purpose? What kind of atmosphere is desired?

3. Create a budget (and more importantly, stick to it when you strategize, hire and book).

4. Establish a date and the number of guests you would like to attend.

5. Pick the right venue and take time doing so. Explore, visit many and then decide.

6. Figure out the type of food you want to serve. We suggest you start with local caterers and discuss your options with them. This is one pallet-pleasing experience you’ll surely enjoy.

7. Hire an experienced and dedicated company for all of your entertainment and audio visual needs. An entertainment company that truly “gets it!” We hear Marx Entertainment is pretty damn good! J

Why choose Marx Entertainment for your event?

Because we not only believe in this information, we live this information. It’s how we operate; it’s how we roll.

One of the greatest and most rewarding aspects to the company is the multiple charity events we are involved in. We recently provided the production and entertainment for a charity event for the Ronald McDonald House. Marx DJ's, who are also members of the Gala Committee for the charity, participated and hosted a Murder Mystery Dinner. Not only did we dress the part, we played the part...what a blast!

Beyond charities we also specialize in weddings, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, school and corporate events. We have the capabilities and experience to offer professional photographers and videographers. Marx also offers plenty of cool visual effects to enhance any party. One of our most popular extras is the photo booth rental, a unique way to add excitement to any occasion.

Social events are another great passion of Marx Entertainment. May 6, 2011 we are celebrating Cinco de Mayo with an event called "Four on the Floor" at the Delaney House in Holyoke, MA. This special night offers couples the opportunity to refresh their dance steps, eat, drink and have a memorable time. Reserve your spot today and come party with us!
