A massive thank you to you both for all your assistance from selecting to co-ordinating the speakers for our annual ProLoan conference. Feedback was that this year’s speakers where the best they had EVER heard at ANY event. So this is pretty amazing, because they do go to a lot of sessions like these.

I would recommend, without hesitation, the services of Jane Rowland Smith and Ovations. Jane answered a last minute call to arrange a guest speaker for our principals. Nothing was too much effort, all was arranged within hours, and went very smoothly. The guest speaker was exactly what we required and our brief was followed. Thank you Jane and the team at Ovations.
Executive Director of Schools Catholic Education Diocese of Parramatta
All aspects of the process has always gone seamlessly with Ovations and we will continue to seek your assistance for the awards in the coming years.
Thank you again, your help has meant that our Awards are very professional and extremely well received by our members and guests.

This event would not have been as successful without the valuable MC’s you have recommended and the support you provided me when it all just seemed too hard
