Charioke is such a unique entertainment/fundraising option that most of your guests will have never seen it before. Your host will take time at the beginning of the show to explain everything. We also include a flyer for each table that explains how it works.
Charioke works best for events where there are at least small groups of people that know each other. A large gala where there are tables of people who know each other, a charity organization, sports banquets, fund raising events, even company parties. Imagine employees nominating their supervisors to sing! The more passionate your guests are about your cause, the more they are willing to bid to sing or not sing!
That's the beauty of it, Charioke is a net-zero cost to your organization! Plus the savings of not paying a band/DJ adds even more to the bottom line. We do charge a fee for our services but we will take that out of the funds raised during the show. We can even put out a "tip-jar" and any tips will first go towards our cost until those are paid.
We want you to earn as much money as possible, so our fees are very affordable and we will do everything we can to raise WAY more than you will pay us!

This is a difficult question to answer as it will depend on many factors. First off we set a minimum bid. This is usually $5-$10 but if you have a more affluent group or want to raise more money this can be increased. Next the size of the crowd and the length of the event will be a big factor. We can do about 15-20 songs per hour. Lastly the make up of the group makes a difference. If you have a large group that all know each other and really get into making each other sing crazy songs and everyone is passionate about the cause, bids can skyrocket and the sky is the limit!
At this time, we have only one host, the owner Nate Olson. Nate is a "retired" wedding DJ and a lifelong Karaoke enthusiast. Several years ago Nate came up with the idea for Charioke to help his favorite charity raise money during their events. It worked so well that he decided to offer the service to other organizations. Nate will provide all of the equipment, request slips, flyers, and assistance planning the event. He will also provide a fun and exciting experience for your guests and use his skill on the microphone to boost up all the bids to earn as much money as possible for your cause!
YES, we have over 52,000 songs that are constantly being updated. While we don't have every song your guests might request, we will have the vast majority.
Additionally, all our songs are fully licensed for commercial and public performances. This is SUPER important, especially if you are hosting your event at at bar, restaurant or banquet facility. Many karaoke DJ's use unlicensed/pirated music which is illegal and could result in huge fines for your venue.
Sure, if you want. We will always ask for a donation of at least the bid minimum if someone wants to pick their own song. The only downside to allowing this is that their is no auction component with that so there is no opportunity to potential increase the amount donated from that song. But it's totally up to you as the organizer. Of course if you don't allow this people can just ask a friend to nominate them for the minimum and then not bid against them.
