“Just a quick note to say thank you for yesterday. The event was a great success and I will let you know how much was raised once the accounts have been finalised. We have received many compliments on the day and your involvement and I believe you will receive a number of future bookings from several people who attended.”
“I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you so much for the amazing job you did on Saturday for us. The jokes were top notch (and thankfully 100% appropriate!) and many of our guests commented on what a great job you did. Seeing you work the room for the auction made me realise how much I’d under estimated how hard it was to do and I was so relieved we had taken FR events advice to hire you.”
‘We just wanted to say a huge thank you for Saturday night. For us it was a great way to celebrate Scannappeal’s 30th Anniversary and your help and support in running the auction made such a difference with the money raised. We are looking at having raised over £26,000 from the evening with a high proportion coming from the main auction. Robert Lindsay also wanted us to pass on to you how impressed he was, he attends a lot of similar events and said you were one of the best he’d ever seen! We of course completely agree! Thank you again so much for your on-going support we really appreciate it”
“WOW!!! Thank you so much for all your hard work on Saturday night. You were AMAZING!!! OUTSTANDING!!! We are so pleased with the outcome and we raised over £10000. We could not have done it without your help!”
“Just wanted to say a massive thanks for your efforts last week a fantastic evening and great result for the charities.It was also a night I will never forget and could not have had a better tribute to end my charity work for Southern water. You were hilarious and Aaron, your auctioneering has already reached legend status here. You raised a staggering amount and kept the audience thoroughly entertained.”
“I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you so much for auctioneering the Sports Quiz last week. Thanks to your efforts, we raised a staggering amount on the night (£49,750!), and we are all incredibly grateful to you. We really hope you will be next year for a third time.”
“Aaron you really were absolutely brilliant last night. Absolutely perfect sense of humour for the audience and it was a pleasure to have you. Really great feedback, I can’t thank you enough!!When asked to rate the quality of the speakers 95% rated you as very good
‘Aaron would be welcomed back’
‘Aaron was far superior to Ed Byrne’
‘The auctioneer was great fun’
So many thanks and I’m sure we will see you again soon.”
“On behalf of The Rotary Club of Wokingham thank you so much for the effort you put into yesterday evening’s auction. I am certain, without your unique blend of humour and cajoling, the audience would not be so willing to put their hands in their pockets. It was a master class in how to retain people’s attention made even more challenging by the intermittent failure of the PA system! How is your throat today? On a personal note I thoroughly enjoyed your company, both on the course and during dinner, even though your tore my reputation to shreds!!!! – though all for a good cause. Once we have a date for next year we will be in touch.”
