August 29, 2022☆☆☆BEST IN LA!!!☆☆☆
Without Michael’s energy and experience as a professional live auctioneer, the turn out of our event wouldn’t have been the same. He took his time to understand the purpose of our event and he was adapt able and very easy to work with. Most importantly he genuinely cared about our project as if it was his own and that goes a long way. I am very glad we chose Michael to be our auctioneer for I believe he is the best in LA, and we will strongly recommend his expertise and skill set to hype up the crowd for any auctions. Thank you again for an amazing job and we look forward to working with you again soon!

Michael did a terrific job as an auctioneer! He was super personable, funny, and warm. The audience loved him. Also, Michael was very easy to work with and accommodated our requests without hesitation. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great auctioneer.

June 23, 2019Exciting and Engaging
Wow! All I can say is wow.
I have been on the chair committee for our event for the last seven years. In the past, we have used our celebrity host(s) to facilitate the auction portion of the evening. They were great, of course, but it always somehow felt like the guests thought of the auction as an interruption to the festivities.
I saw what Michael could do when I was a guest at another charity's event. I was blow away by how he got the audience to get so excited and engaged in the bidding. He was so quick witted and really made sure everything went smoothly. No one seemed bored or like they were waiting for it to be over… it felt like entertainment.
Needless to say, I convinced my board that we needed him at our even. And I was right; we earned well over what we were expecting to this year. As long as I am on the committee, Michael will be our go-to auctioneer.

Michael is a one-of-a-kind auctioneer who knows how to keep the party going and the spirits alive amongst a group. He was the auctioneer at my private benefit earlier this year and all the reviews were about how friendly and outgoing the auctioneer was! I would re-hire in a heartbeat!
