I’ve hired Samantha for the past five years as our gala auctioneer. Each year we surpassed our fundraising goal, due to her energy, understanding of our mission, and her charisma. Samantha is able to harness the energy and excitement from the room after any program speech and inspire attendees to GIVE! Working with Samantha is easy. Samantha is reliable and self-sufficient and when planning an event, finding people that you can rely on and who are easy to work with is hard to find.
Having Michael Saperstein as the auctioneer for our charity event made a tangible difference in the feel of the room, interest in the item catalog, and most importantly in the amount of money we were able to raise. His ability to gauge the climate of an auction audience maximized the amount of money generated per item, and left our live bid component the talk of the event. Our success level could not have been reached without him!
I have been a professional fundraiser for over 20 years. In such time, I have only met one auctioneer who has the keen ability to gauge his presentation to both the needs of the non-profit and the event audience. Michael Saperstein is that auctioneer. In a measured and intuitive manner that is sure to please and entertain the crowd – Michael deftly pulls them into a convivial bidding frenzy that ultimately yields a successful monetary outcome sure to be an event highlight.
