Testimonials

Chad, you rocked the house!  I am in awe of you and what you did for NSA!  “I drank the juice”, I had already donated and threw down more because of you!

“You are the best Auctioneer I have seen!  The phenomenal success of 40 Years of Living Legends is a reflection on your Auctioneer skills and the time you spent preparing and coaching The Redwoods’ staff and volunteers. I have attended other auctions, but you were exceptionally good at pacing the fundraising with the audience’s willingness to participate.

As you know, this is the first time The Redwoods has used an Auctioneer. It was a pleasure to watch how you successfully transported the guests from the video and table conversation to a lively auction and Fund A Need. The evening would not have been as successful without your hard work and dedication.

I have heard nothing but praise about the evening and your flawless execution of the auction. Many of the Rock the Ages performers said you took time to talk to them about the auction which they really appreciated.

Congratulations on a memorable event. Our revenue from the evening exceeded our expectations and I’m enormously grateful for your contribution to that event’s success!”

“Chad Carvey – the best Principal you wished you had!  Chad is a delight.  A consummate professional and a fabulous fundraiser and auctioneer, it is hard not to wish he was your principal when you were in school.  As an event producer who works mostly with nonprofit organizations, I rely on a cadre of amazing individuals and vendors by my side to make every production a success.  With Chad as a partner, the auction and fundraising components are seamlessly integrated into the guest experience.  The very first event I did with Chad, he helped us to increase the in-room fundraising more than 300%!  WOW!  I can’t say enough good about him – I love watching him in action, enjoy every interaction with Chad and Carolyn and look forward to many years working together!”

“We can’t thank Chad enough for his terrific auctioneering talents that contributed to doubling our auction revenues over the prior year! He was a lot fun to work with, and has a unique talent for fast talking and keen observation skills in assessing the audience. He was able to gauge interest for an item by judging the expression on people’s faces that encouraged exciting bidding wars for popular items! Chad’s positive energy and infectious enthusiasm to help support our fundraising efforts made him an ideal choice as our auctioneer!”
