RE: Lions Club Magic Show
Roger,
Thank you very much for the excellent program you put together for us earlier this year. As a club, we were very pleased with the outcome as well as your professionalism.
We would love to have you again next year and look forward to another successful show.
Thanks,

Dear Kentucky D.A.R.E. Instructors:
I am writing this letter to inform you about a wonderful way to make some extra money for your local D.A.R.E. Program.
Mr. Roger Despard, of Roger Productions, contacted me over 10 years ago about doing a fundraiser for our local program. We signed a contract with Mr. Despard for the company to handle a fundraiser, which would primarily be conducted via phone solicitation. I had some reservations at first due to the number of companies conducting business over the phone that had proven to be “rip-offs outfits”. My reservations were quickly put to rest as I observed the staff during the first couple of days they were working for us. We have since formed a partnership with Roger Despard that has lasted over 10 years and is still going strong. Roger and Lee Ann’s Magic Show is awesome. Year after year everyone loves it, mainly because the Vegas style show gets better and bigger each year.
Roger handles just about everything to make your fundraiser a success. You can increase your share of the revenue by putting forth the extra effort to sell additional tickets for the show. The magic show has become our best fundraiser. Mr. Despard and his staff are very professional in the performance of their duties and they always present our agency well. In fact, I have never received a complaint about ticket sales or the show.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. You will see that Roger Despard and his people are superior to other fundraising companies you may have worked with in the past! They definitely have been for us.
Respectfully,

To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this letter to inform you about a way to have an entertaining time while you make some extra money for your organization.
Sgt. John Branscum, with the Nicholasville Police Department, gave Roger Despard, of Roger Productions, my name to do a fundraiser for my D.A.R.E. program. When Mr. Despard contacted me I really had some mixed feelings because our department doesn’t like to do fundraiser or phone solicitations. After speaking with several other counties that had Mr. Despard’s Magic Show, I decided to take their advice and started to make the plans for the show. Roger was great to work with in making the show a success. Our department was glad we made the choice to have Mr. Despard bring his show to our county.
Roger handles just about everything to make our fundraiser a success. His staff are very professional in the performance of their duties and they represented our agency well. In fact, I never had any complaints about ticket sales or the show.
The show was very awesome. I am still wondering how Roger did the things he did in his show. It was very entertaining for everyone. People talked about the show for days.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. You will see that Roger Despard and his people are fantastic.
Respectfully,

Dear Roger and Lee Ann Despard:
Your show was a great hit with the patrons of our Western Kentucky State Fair, and you all were very good to work with. I enjoy working with people who are willing to change their show schedule when the need arises.
The show as everything that we had expected and more. It was very entertaining and exciting. The illusions that you did appeared to be impossible to do, but you and Lee Ann were great, along with your fine staff.
In any future fairs that we include a magic show, we will certainly be in contact with you to see if you are available for booking.
Again, thank you for helping make our 1992 edition of the Western Kentucky State Fair a success.
Sincerely Yours,
Charles Oatts
