benefit auctions

procrastination is opportunities assassin- Victor Kiam

Selecting a date and moving forward is the most critical part of the planning process. For your organizations sake you need to take this leap so that you can begin all the other tasks involved with setting up a successful fundraiser. As soon as you select the date your event will begin to take form.
It is imperitave to go with a LIVE auction instead of a SILENT auction. Silent auctions are time consuming, labor intensive, and never generate the excitement or proceeds a properly run live benefit auction will.

Your events success depends on the person running the event. You need to hire a professional benefit auctioneer to get the best results.

Millions of dollars have been lost for non-profit organizations by utilizing a volunteer or board member instead of hiring a professional benefit auctioneer. A benefit auctioneer has a unique skill set that traditional auctioneers, so called "celebrity" auctioneers, or a volunteer will not poses. A good benefit auctioneer is charismatic, entertaining, and sales oriented and will engage your audience in an entertaining and informative way that will motivate them to participate in the auction.

Hiring a professional benefit auctioneer will always pay for itself in increased auction proceeds. It is an investment that your organization needs to make to ensure the success of the fundaising auction

If you are looking for a professional benefit auctioneer we recommend contacting
Auction Legacy. They are a Florida based benefit auctioneer provider that can supply a benefit auctioneer anywhere in the country.

Your auction can only be as good as your auction items. Even the best auctioneer in the business can only get so much money for a low quality item. If your organization has donated auction items that is great, if not your benefit auctioneer should be able to get you some high quality auction items on consignment.

Remember that quality is more important than quantity some of the biggest benefit auctions around feature only several items. You should consult with your benefit auctioneer to discuss items, order of items, and if more items are needed.

Regardless of if you have canvassed for your own auction items or consigned some items it is important that the items are of high quality to insure they recieve the maxiumum possible bids.
