I would like to express my sincere appreciation to you, for contributing to my Campaign Kickoff Fundraising Event! After hearing you speak, I truly understand why everyone calls you, ”The Sensational Guy.“ The audience and I found you to be extremely inspiring, humorous, and enlightening. Your unique approach seemed to benefit each and every attendee. You made an immediate impact as guests and staff began tweeting and face booking regarding their positive experience, before the event had officially ended. I am eternally grateful for you, Duane Cummings, “The Sensational Guy” and in my opinion, there is no question you can make any event, TRULY SENSATIONAL!
