This book is an invaluable resource, a roadmap which systematically guides professional and volunteer alike toward adventures that will realize their bold dreams. A great tool that creates all–important confidence and optimism." (Gary Wolff, CFRE, consultant to philanthrophy, Santa Fe, New Mexico)

This practical, easy–to–use guide contains everything you need to know to create and manage enjoyable, profitable special events." (John M.

Understanding all the elements required to produce a successful event is as important for the client as it is for the professional. In my twenty years of producing events, I have not found a book until now that outlines all the practical steps required for a successful event. It′s all clearly spelled out here."
