Going, going gone! Fundraising dollars have been drying up year after year and organizations are now competing for a dwindling amount of donation dollars. As organizations try to find fun and exciting fundraisers in order to generate enthusiasm, auction fundraiser events have answered the call.
Raise your hand if you need a successful fundraiser! Thank you for your bid! A good auctioneer just got you to make your very first bid and you probably did not see it coming.
The reality is, a successful fundraiser is one that generates excitement. Buzz before, during and after an event are the hallmarks of successful fundraisers. So how do you create this buzz and maintain it? An auction fundraiser is how you do it.
If you are going to do an auction fundraiser, you want to do it right and that means getting professional assistance. KDS understands fundraising, understands auctions and knows precisely how to create an auction fundraiser that has the hands flying and the dollars climbing.
At the heart of any auction fundraiser is the auctioneer. The right auctioneer needs to understand how to generate fun, excitement and competition. The right auctioneer must also understand fundraising, how to read a crowd and how to get two or more bidders in a frenzy over a particular item.
The competitive nature innate in everyone comes out at an auction. The right auctioneer knows how to create a congenial yet highly competitive environment which has winners smiling, bid losers hungry for the next lot and your dollars climbing.
The items up for auction will depend on your organization and community. Whether an art auction is planned, a sports memorabilia auction, a collectibles auction or an auction with a little of everything - the auctioneer will be your key to success and that is why you need to turn to the professionals when planning your auction fundraiser.
Many organizations plan a series of auctions throughout the year, each with different themes targeting different segments of the community. KDS can help create a fundraising strategy that makes sense for you as they plan, manage and execute one or more highly successful auction fundraisers for your organization.
Schools, churches and organizations around the nation know that in order to keep their doors open they need successful fundraisers. Failed fundraisers will do more harm than good and that is why organizations are relying on the expertise of companies like KDS Fundraising for the planning and execution of an auction fundraiser. |
