You are an AWESOME auctioneer....
You have NO idea of how many people came up to me (I know Julie as well) and said, “That auctioneer was incredible...she engaged the crowd, got the bidders to bid without being rude/pushing … I loved observing her, I just watched her … she did a great job.”
It was very FUN to watch you in action!!! Thank you so much for offering us your time and talents.
