I would just like to say thank you for putting on an amazing show with limited time and information given. Everyone had a wonderful time and enjoyed themselves.
John is an absolute pleasure to work with. It is obvious he puts in a lot of effort pre-event. His research into our industry and the particular regions our awards were held in was outstanding and added to his performance on the night. His energy and enthusiasm engaged the audience right from the start. We have had such positive feedback. He is a true professional and we would most certainly work with him again on future events!
Really appreciate the way you compered and kept the night moving along.
Thanks so much for your hard work and commitment to our event. You were a great MC! We will definitely be in touch for future events.
John's preparation and his natural humour kept everyone enjoying the night. He finished with a song that left everyone on a high. I would highly recommend John for your next event to add some fun and professionalism.
