Read the Reviews for Proceed with Auction’s Events
Jake was so fantastic! From the first call it was obvious that he was enthusiastic about his craft. He is very organized and his attention to detail was amazing. This was our first time hosting this event and Jake helped guide us through so many decisions. I don’t know what we would’ve done without him! His auctioneering was also fantastic. I had so many people come up to me afterwards to talk about how great of an auctioneer he is – funny, lively, and creative! If you need someone for your event, Jake is the guy!

Jake and his team did a great job at Grant Halliburton Foundation’s The Hope Party. He was very well prepared and led our event to record breaking paddle raise fundraising amounts.

Jake and his team were absolutely incredible at our ADL Fur Ball event. The energy they brought to the room was unmatched! They kept the audience engaged, excited, and ready to give. Working with them was seamless from start to finish, and their professionalism truly elevated the entire night. We’re so grateful for their contribution and can’t wait to work with Jake again for future events. Highly recommend!

We retained Jake for our first Henry’s Hope Gala benefiting the Houston Chapter of the Star Legacy Foundation. He was a key contributor to our success—both financially and in connecting effectively with guests. Before the event, Jake spent meaningful time reviewing our goals, run-of-show, paddle-raise strategy, and auction items, offering guidance while honoring our team’s direction. At the Gala, he maximized paddle-raise support, drove live-auction bidding, and smoothly handled an item that fell short of its minimum. We highly recommend Jake Addams.

He and his team kept the crowd alive for an hour and helped us raise more during our live auction than ever before! He was an absolute delight from the moment I reached out, on top of check ins with all of the tips and tricks to help us along the way. I couldn’t recommend Jake and his team more for any fundraising event you might have in your future – they’re the BEST!

We hired Jake to be the auctioneer at our fantasy football draft and he was outstanding. He was on time, prepared, and perfectly fit the bill of what we were hoping for in a certified auctioneer. We will be definitely be asking him back next year!

THE perfect touch to our National Event hosted by Texas for the Saleen Club of America. Jake was EXACTLY what I was looking for, with all the BIG Texas Charm and personality I wanted. Our event was a HUGE success and many thanks to Jake and his team for helping make that happen. I hope I get to have him join us again and if you’re looking for THAT perfect finishing touch, please give him a call.

We were thrilled to have Jake on our team for our school’s annual Spring Party! From the start, he was eager to collaborate, meeting with us multiple times throughout the planning process to fine-tune event details, share expert auction strategies, and ensure our live program would be engaging and successful.
On the day of the event, Jake arrived early and managed his team flawlessly. His auctioneers were professional, skilled, and knew exactly how to maximize bids. Thanks to Jake’s expertise, we estimate that our live auction raised 25-30% more than it would have on our own.
Thank you, Jake—we truly appreciate your hard work and hope to partner with you again next year!
