The Importance of a Great Auctioneer for Charity Fundraisers
Benefit or Charity auctions is one
of today’s most popular fundraising
methods for school, non-profit and
501c3 organizations. But planning
and presenting an auction that is both
profitable and memorable doesn’t
happen by accident. Just ask anyone
who’s done it. It takes hard work,
great timing, cooperation, extensive
planning, organizational excellence
and a little luck.
