Description

For an in-depth resource, attendees rave about the “Conversation Series,” which I started hosting in March 2020.  It’s called, “The Next 6 Months: Setting a Gala Strategy in Light of COVID-19,”

Watch actual videos of virtual galas with commentary by me.  Conversation 1, 2, and 3 are all available as recordings.  Upon registering for the recordings, you’ll be invited to future Conversations, too.  Consider pouring your favorite beverage and setting aside ~4 hours to take advantage of this education.

  1. Kathy Kelcher – October 11, 2020

    I thought the webinar was really good. I had been looking for ideas of how to thank our major sponsors without having a Gala next year. I had one question regarding the pricing of the box. The box and contends totaled $100.00 and it was sold for $125.00 which made a profit of $25.00 per box. What was the break down of how many boxes the major sponsors would receive? Our major sponsors range from $500- $10,000. How many boxes would they receive depending how much they donate? Thank you again for all your “conversations” that you have donated your time to present.

      Kathy, I’m pretty sure JL addressed your question in the webinar. I seem to recall no sponsor received more than 4 boxes.

  2. Carolyn Rickey – October 8, 2020

    Thank you for posting this WOW box conversation on line. Learnt a lot. Loved that she was giving back to the smaller businesses. Glad she made money. Carolyn

  3. Donna LaMond – October 8, 2020

    This webinar was incredibly real and helpful. I have been doing research on hybrid and virtual events for six months. This one in particular has helped me tremendously to fine tune and see how to actually implement an idea. The Q & A was also helpful. I look forward to future webinars.

What auction planners say

Sherry, oh, Sherry! You were an invaluable asset to this year’s gala. With your assistance we were able to add so many new elements that truly made a difference in taking our event to another level. This year was the most successful yet! Everyone loved you and the amazing energy that you brought to the event. We look forward to having you again in 2018!

Krystal Fenwick

Thank you so much for the outstanding job you did for us on April 1! I have received so much positive feedback from so many who attended. You even earned Sister Suzan’s (our Vice-Principal) seal of approval! Safe travels to all your many events and thank you for making our biggest fundraiser of the year our best ever!

Diane Albano, Director of Development
St. Joseph Academy Catholic High School (St. Augustine, FL)

Sherry is flexible and easy to work with. She gives honest feedback and advice throughout the planning and implementation process. Without a doubt, Sherry and Red Apple Auctions has helped take our annual fundraising event to the next level.

Beckie Middendorf, Development Director and Janet Gulla, Development Coordinator
St. Henry District High School (Erlanger, KY)

Sherry is “on board” from day one of auction planning, works closely with our steering committee and is only just a phone call away. The night of the auction, we toss her the keys and let her drive the event! We are never disappointed!

Charly Ryan, Director of Institutional Advancement
The Academy of the Holy Cross (Kensington, MD)

I was very fortunate to have Red Apple on board for my first auction. Working with Sherry was invaluable. She provided guidance at every phase of planning, from procurement on forward – and she challenged us to make our event more ambitious and more successful at every stage. Thank you, Sherry!

Pete Goldlust, Director of Development
Oak Hill School (Eugene, OR)

If your auction needs to upgrade, call any auctioneer you find on Google. But if you want your auction to be impressive, meaningful, and profitable, you need to call Sherry.

The auction was entertaining .. proactive … the crowd was involved and felt a part of it,” he said, emphasizing, “The entertainment value was huge.

We plan on booking Red Apple Auctions much earlier for our next event so we can take advantage of more of the pre-event offerings.
