I have to highlight Sara Brzozowski's exceptional work as our live auctioneer for Savor the Spring these past two years and continuing forward. As an auctioneer, Sara brings a remarkable blend of public speaking prowess, showmanship, and control that truly elevates the event. She has a keen ability to assess the audience, gauging their level of interest and adjusting her approach to maximize bidding activity. Her communication skills are top-notch, as she seamlessly conveys bidding protocols while engaging both buyers and sellers with energy and humor. Sara's interpersonal skills and empathy are evident, particularly in how she interacts with participants, making the auction experience enjoyable and memorable. Additionally, her organizational skills ensure that every detail—from maintaining accurate records to managing the flow of the auction—runs smoothly. Sara’s presence as an auctioneer is not just about calling out bids; it's about creating an exciting and successful atmosphere, and we are incredibly fortunate to have her leading our live auctions.
She certainly Runs the Room!
Helen Scott Ching, Gala Chairwoman and Parent
Have you ever attended a charity event and noticed how some auctioneers have the rare ability to bring the room to life? They command the gavel with authority and infuse the event with a charisma that inspires the audience to open their hearts—and wallets—to your cause. That’s exactly what Sara Brzozowski does as our live auctioneer at St. Joseph's Academy’s annual charity gala.
Sara captivates the audience with her warm, engaging personality, injecting humor and energy into every auction moment. Her connection with bidders transforms the atmosphere, making the auction a highlight of the evening and a truly enjoyable experience for everyone involved. Sara’s presence is more than just effective; it’s entertaining.
​
Sara brought in $82,200 this past year alone at our paddle raise and silent auction; exceeding expectations and garnering delight and enthusiasm from our guests. She skillfully generated competitive bidding, often eliciting higher-than-expected value for auction items, thanks to the excitement she created in the room. BidProsperly turns auctions into memorable and successful events for our cause. Their auctioneers are invaluable, and we are fortunate to have them as part of our team year after year.

We couldn’t be more grateful for the way BidProsperly runs the room.

As a long-time nonprofit Executive Director, I am pleased to recommend the unique professional services of BidProsperly. Having worked with this team for several years, I have watched our auction profits dramatically increase due to BidProsperly’s attention to the bottom line as well as providing high touch service in communications, operations and focus on both donor and auction winner satisfaction.

I am confident any nonprofit organization would benefit from aligning with BidProsperly and recommend their services to anyone looking to take their auction fundraising to the next level.
