We in Galtee Rovers ran the Chaser on Nov 19 ,2022 . The night itself was a culmination of 2 months work and it is structured in such a way that once the Event comes you have your money made. Our event was a huge success, we had hoped to raise 20 to 25k after all expenses paid and it looks like we probably have closer to 38/39k cleared from the Event. We wanted to plan a big event that would raise funds and be a big social night for the community once the Covid rules were relaxed-George told us how the event would work and true to his name it did and it was even better The actual Chaser event on the night was fantastic , we had 350 people in attendance and it has been one of the best social nights ever held by the club. George was always available to us, giving guidance and encouragement at the right times and the event itself is very professional and most enjoyable. Don't get me wrong, its hard work but if you stick to the plan as laid out by Pallas Marketing it's a really worthwhile event both Financially and as a Social gathering for your club

The best piece of advice we got when planning our Fundraiser The Big Drop was to avail of the services of George and Pallas Marketing. Over a 12 week sales period George coached our sellers expertly and was available to guide us and answer any queries that arose day or night. Out target was to raise €100,000 and we exceeded this figure comfortably. Pallas Marketing provided a very professional service to us, without Pallas we feel we would have struggled to hit 50% of our target. Hopefully we shall avail of Pallas services again in the future and would definitely recommend them to any organisation planning to fundraise.

Hi George, Just a quick catch up to once again thank you and your company for the enormous support you provided for us during our recent Disney '22 fundraiser. We are currently very close to commencing our works and I doubt very much that we would have raised the funds that we did without your persistence and guidance. We look forward to welcoming you to Christy Leahy Park for our official opening of our new Astro Pitch. Colm Mc Loughlin, Secretary, St.Brendans Park FC., Tralee

Bruff GAA engaged Pallas Marketing to manage our major fundraiser, The Chaser. From the outset Pallas Marketing's professionalism, attention to detail, advice and detailed strategy, on how to achieve our fundraiser target, was of major assistance in reaching our financial goals. The show was a tremendous success, with very positive feedback from all who attended. We will use Pallas Marketing again and would have no hesitation in recommending them as your fundraising partner. Profits for our club exceeded profits from Strictly and many other events that we ran in the past. Francis O' Dwyer, Bruff GAA.

Clooney Quin GAA club held a successful “Who wants to be a Thousandaire” event hosted by Pallas Marketing on June 15th. The event was a massive success for the club with over 400 in attendance on the night. George, Tom and their team are experts in what they do, born entertainers, the crowd were laughing for the night! During the nine weeks of preparation for the event, we found the coaching from Pallas Marketing to be extremely helpful, providing the members of our committee with useful tips and recommendations that were of assistance to us in securing advertisers. Financially, the event exceeded our expectations with our profit for the event exceeding €45,000. It’s fair to say that Pallas have derived a formula that yields incredible financial results for clubs and we would highly recommend them to other clubs.

" The audience were fantastic at our show, but to have a great audience, you need a great host. And that's exactly what George and the guys were tonight. From Paul on MC to George as quizmaster everything was just top class. From the first meeting, Pallas Marketing have been excellent in their guidance and advice. If anyone out there in another club or group needs to raise funds, get these guys on board. I am happy for any club to ring me if you wish to" Kevin Dobbyn 087 6167700

To George, Tom and Sally, The success of The Chaser is beyond our greatest hopes. From the first time I approached Pallas Marketing, your approach to our fundraising event has been refreshing and professional. The structure you advised us to put in place, your guidance and motivation to enable us to achieve our targets are the reasons why we have attained a final figure of over €38,000 euro. The event itself was presented in a very professional and accomplished manner. The large attendance were entertained throughout and judging by the feedback received, everybody agreed that it was an excellent nights entertainment had by all. Finally I would like to thank you for your assistance in our fundraising event and to say to any other club or group thinking of holding such an event that our experience with Pallas Marketing was extremely positive and I would recommend Pallas Marketing as an ideal and dependable partner to any club. Regards TJ Cronin.

Many thanks to George, Tom and the team at Pallas Marketing for you help and support during our recent fundraiser. The night itself went off very smoothly and all those who attended were very pleased with it . The final amount raised was €63,750, which is a fantastic sum and will be a huge help in our efforts to secure a suitable training ground.

As an exhibitor, we found that there was a significant return on our investment. Between launch night, stands outside the event and during the event itself, we received great exposure & opportunities to target new customers. We found it very easy to work with Pallas Marketing with great communication from slideshows at the event to professional invoicing for it. We would recommend this event as a great way to help the local community while also creating great awareness of your business/brand. Katherine Sinnott

"The show was a great success both as a fundraiser and as an extremely enjoyable night for the audience. We still fees to collect but our net profit so far is nineteen thousand pounds. You and your team were excellent at taking us through the process step by step. We are certainly looking forward to working with Pallas again on a third occasion in future putting on a similar show, perhaps The Chase? Again many thanks for all your help in achieving our objective and I would have no hesitation in recommending Pallas to any Club or organisation wanting to raise a considerably sum in one night. Hopefully do business again soon." John Overend.

We would like to thank you and your team for your professional approach in driving the event, our initial expectation was in the € 20,000 to € 25,000 range but with your skill and guidance it motivated us to exceed all expectations and we raised €42,650. Your detailed planning was immense and the training and support you provided to the club project leaders gave them the confidence to execute the sales. It was clearly evident that your experience gained in running events over the years limited the amount of decision making required by the club, we adhered to your plan and focused our energy in advert and ticket sales. Your idea in having a wine reception for sponsors and advertisers prior to the show was greatly appreciated by all, it provided an opportunity to relax and network prior to the main show. Numerous sponsors and advertisers commented on the high level of exposure they got from the event and felt their sponsorship was really appreciated.
