Andy Saks, Licensed Charity Auctioneer Auctioneer from Boston, MA

Welcome! Thank you for considering me as your live auctioneer for your benefit fundraiser. Helping charities raise money is an honor. When you trust me with that honor, I will: 1) ADAPT to your planning style, giving you as much feedback, advice, and resources as you want, in your preferred format, on your schedule; 2) PREPARE thoroughly for your event, doing my own research, making suggestions, and sweating every detail. I'll even write a word-for-word auctioneer script you can edit and approve, and design a polished, animated slideshow to match it, with your font, colors, and photos; 3) ENERGIZE your live auction and paddle raise with a friendly, professional delivery packed with energy and humor (but never inappropriate). I've used this approach countless times over 15+ years, helping nonprofits all over the northeast, like the YMCA, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital, plus military and veterans' groups, high schools and colleges, film festivals, food pantries, arts centers, historic landmarks, youth sports, suicide prevention, and many others. I know it's scary to hire a stranger for this pivotal, high-profile role. Give me a shout and let's see if I'm a good fit for you.
