Book your auctioneer in advance.
This will eliminate mistakes and wasted time.Not to mention if you wait too long your auctioneer could be booked up!
Resist placing highest valued items at the end of the auction.Start with lower valued items then work back up then back down so unsuccessful bidders on high value items can still bid on other goodies later in the auction.
Power point or use visuals for smaller items or vacation packages.
Sell sponsorships to corporate supporters to cover empty walls.
Close silent auction tables before dinner and keep things on schedule.Respect supporters time and get them home at a reasonable hour.
By hiring a Professional Auctioneer that specializes in fundraisers, you will increase your profits a great deal.
Just because they don't charge you doesn't mean it isn't costing you in lost revenue.You get what you pay for!
