People say

After attending one of Mazarine’s sessions, you seriously feel invincible!Mazarine was like a group spirit guide; she provided the foundation of knowledge, and then urged us to ask ourselves questions. Not only was the session engaging, informative, and highly applicable, but she did something that I did not see at any other sessions at the conference – in a room of 200, in less than an hour, she made a community. A community where EVERYONE, young and old, felt comfortable to ask questions, make comments, and engage with others in the room – Andrea Edelman, San Mateo, CA You have officially made my day (heck, week!). And as my subject line says, “I heart you even more now.” YOU were everything I hoped for. You are such a delightful person, full of passion, knowledge, and motivation. Your presentation blew us all away. It was such a pleasure to meet you and I’m totally bragging left and right that I got to take YOU out to dinner the night before. Who says being President of AFP doesn’t have it’s perks? 😉 Thank you again. Many, many times over. – Fayth Ross, Executive Director, Urban Roots, Reno, NV This is by far the best webinar I have ever participated in, hands down.  Mazarine not only presented fantastic material she did it in such an engaging manner.  I am looking forward to sharing all that I learned with my CEO and the marketing team as we start working on our annual report.  The information given was so timely and I can see where it will be useful in making our quarterly newsletter more effective as well.  Thanks for a turning a boring subject and a dreaded task into an exciting much anticipated adventure! – Robert Raney, Vice President for Donor Relations, Child Impact International, Tennessee

Why do I enjoy being a keynote speaker?

Because I’m a fanatic for helping people succeed in building better relationships, so we can reclaim community wealth.

I love to play with writing, and I’m interested in exactly how writing convinces people to change their minds.

I’m a possibility thinker. Every crisis has a solution.

I’m insatiably curious. My inquiring mind wants to know how we are going to survive this time, and how we can support each other in the meantime.

As a keynote speaker on post-capitalist futures, resisting work, gene keys and human design, leadership and wealth reclamation/fundraising, I can bring your audiences something they have NEVER heard before.

ATTENDEE FEEDBACK:

SPONSORSHIP PRESENTATIONS

“While my program is advanced and well equipped in securing and managing corporate sponsors, I thought Mazarine was an exceptional presenter and delivered real value to programs looking to advance or start a sponsor program.” – From Meals on Wheels National Conference 2013 “With the uncertainty around federal funding, it is imperative that we find unique ways to raise funds for our program. I found your trainings at the Meals on Wheels conference to be so helpful and already have a great idea around finding a sponsor for our meal program.” – Brynn Evans, Executive Director Meals On Wheels of Lamoille County

“Within four hours of soaking in all of your wonderful lessons and advice, I was able to empower someone to bring in a hefty item for one of the Silent Auctions, and secure a major score of my own.

Better yet, using what I had learned within the prior twelve hours, I was able to put together a variety of sponsorship packages for a recently-revealed connection in an industry you mentioned AND

“Wow!”, I not only secured a $1500 sponsorship for a specific need, but just found out that we received a 15,000 sponsorship, as well. I’d say that’s a darned good return on one webinar!  Thanks a million!”    – Judi DeSouter, Director of Advancement at Catholic Elementary Development Partners, New York, NY

“We are a grassroots organization doing our fifth fundraising event next year. Mazarine’s Wildly Successful Events Sponsorship Webinar helped us brainstorm who to approach and lots of ways to convince them to sponsor us! Tremendous value. If you’re looking for sponsors, take this course! ” – Denise Hawkinson, Ph.D., Board member, Post-Partum Health Alliance

 

“I was highly impressed with Mazarine’s Wildly Successful Events webinar.

Great for anyone, novice to expert.” – Karrie Groves Riemer, Operation Sack Lunch, Seattle, WA

“Wildly Successful Events provided me with valuable information and some creative new ideas that I will put into practice immediately! So much to think about! – Sue Ann Lynes, Executive Assistant/Corporate Membership, Soil and Water Conservation Society, Iowa

“I learned so much from Mazarine’s Wildly Successful Events seminar! I have already put some of her tips into place with great success! It’s definitely a valuable presentation.” – Colleen Payne, Executive Director, Spina Bifida Association of Kentucky

“Mazarine gave me TONS of ideas of where to look for sponsorships, we are gonna make SO MUCH MONEY!”– Mary Morton, Communications and Program Director, Nourish America, Ojai, California

“Your Tons of Money In the Mail webinar gave me many fresh ideas that I would like to incorporate into my upcoming mailings. I plan to review my notes and the supplemental materials provided in order to create an “action plan” for the lessons learned. Thank you!” – Amanda Parker, Grants and Development Manager, OPERA America

“I’ve been trying for years to figure out how to write about our non-profit in a way that moves folks to action. After just one session of your Make Tons of Money in the Mail seminar that I finally got how to do that! Because of the shift in copy inspired by Tons of Money in the Mail, Nourish America is being featured in a special report on Hunger that will be in the Chicago Sun Times along with heavy weights – Feeding America and Meals on Wheels! The editor specifically told me that she was particularly excited about how visceral my copy was and that she’d never seen hunger described like that before!” -Mary Morgan, Nourish America, Ojai, California

“Tons of Money in the Mail gave me TONS of ideas for making our year-end direct mailing more effective. The opportunity for questions and answers was also extremely valuable! Thanks!” -T.J. Holsen, Development Director, Parents as Teachers of Lake County, Inc. Indiana
