David Sobon Auctions

David Sobon’s auction at the City Year Sacramento gala was an outstanding success. We were able to work with David months in advance. He assisted in the planning, the design of the auction and recommendations on the type of items which would be most successful. He also advised us to have the right people in the room for the event. Everything came together at the auction and through David’s excellent facilitation, our live auction exceeded all expectations and we raised much more than expected esp through the fund a need portion of the event.
David and his team are also active members of the Sacramento community and the audiences know and trust him. He has a passion to continue to support making Sacramento a great city to live and work. I highly recommend David and team if you want a great success!!!

David Sobon was instrumental in the success of Capital Stage’s 2013 fund raising auction. He gave us valuable guidance during the planning process regarding the order of the evening’s events, selection of appropriate auction items, great advice on room layout and sound design, as well as proven advice on methods to maximize bidding. During the evening, his dynamic presence in the room and his friendly, fun-​loving approach helped all attendees enjoy the event. Last but not least, his skills as an auctioneer helped us reach our financial goals! I doubt that you can do much better than David Sobon.

We have worked with David for the past two years on our gala’s live auction and fund-​a-​need. David is the VERY BEST at his craft. He is accessible pre-​event for anything we need and has provided valuable insight into ways to increase revenue at our event. On-​site, he works well with A/​V production staff and our team to ensure a smooth event. He’s punctual, energetic, engaging, and above all, he delivers RESULTS. Since partnering with David, our event’s net revenue has increased 35%. As a nonprofit exec, it’s not always easy to put the responsibility of fundraising into another person’s hands, but with David, he never disappoints and I am so grateful to partner with him.
