Clients tell us that they STOPPED doing the LIVE AUCTION portion of their annual fundraising event (or they WANT to stop the LIVE AUCTION portion because of a couple of things -
1. It is TOO long – people get board
2. It is too hard to pull off every year
Before you throw away this portion of your annual big fundraising event, you should know this – you are making a mistake (nearly every time) – by sticking with your silent auction and eliminating the live auction portion.
The LIVE AUCTION portion, when done properly – raises MORE money than any other portion of the night. When done right, it is FUN, and EXCITING. Talk with a fundraising consultant like us before you make this move – we’ll tell you what the other 8 items are that you should be looking into before you throw the “live” portion away!
