The Benefit Bidding is a team of full-time fundraising auction professionals with extensive training, education and over 20 years of experience. However, the benefit auction industry is much more than a business to them. Their dedication to empowering charitable organizations to achieve and exceed their fundraising goals has been, and always will be, a significant part of their personal lives. When you hire Benefit Bidding, you can rest assured they will put their hearts, as well as their professional skills and knowledge, into making your benefit auction successful. Benefit Biddings founding auctioneer was recently honored by a client as “Auctioneer Extraordinaire” after helping the organization raise over $1 million.
Whether you need assistance with an online auction or a fundraising event which incorporates live, big board, silent, and online auctions (or a combination thereof), Benefit Bidding provides a customized solution for your organization. They have conducted live auctions for intimate gatherings of 30 people to fundraising galas with over 1000 guests. They are one of the few benefit auction firms offering custom branded online auction services – and they possess the technological skills necessary to support your online auction. They do not “outsource” your online auction to a third party.
People are more generous when they are happy. Benefit Bidding works hard to ensure your bidders, whether online or at a live auction, have fun! Their online auction website is simple to use so your online bidders will find it easy to bid. They help you design a live event which will motivate your guest to open their wallets! Their auction team is composed of outgoing individuals who possess the ability to assist bidders in a professional, yet friendly, manner. They dress appropriately for your event…they are comfortable in costumes, tuxedos, or anything in between. Your guests will have a great time and spend. Best of all, they will want to come back to attend and spend—year after year!
You will raise funds through a time tested method. Records from ancient Greek scribes document auctions occurring as far back as 500 B.C. In addition to raising funds, your benefit auction will promote your group’s mission and educate your community – and set the stage for obtaining new benefactors. When Benefit Bidding hosts your online auction, your custom designed auction website provides a world of new bidders – and supporters – of your organization.
When you select Benefit Bidding to partner with you for your benefit auction – whether live or online – you have entrusted them to serve as official representatives of your organization and its cause. They never forget this.
The auction industry includes over 20 specialties. In 1990, Benefit Biddings founder carefully and thoughtfully made the decision to assist charitable organizations exclusively. They are committed to your benefit auction – it is not a “sideline” activity for them. If you are going to hire a fundraising auction team, doesn’t make sense to hire one exclusively dedicated to helping charitable organizations?
Graciousness and civility are always in style. The Benefit Bidding team holds your organization and its mission in high regard. They respect every guest and volunteer. They respond to phone calls and emails promptly. They arrive early and well prepared for all meetings and events. Their professional team abstains from drinking alcohol and smoking at all functions.
To obtain exciting revenue producing ideas for your benefit auction, the Benefit Bidding team communicates regularly with fundraising specialists around the country. They are members of the National Auctioneers Association (NAA) and the Texas Auctioneers Association (TAA). They participate in TAA seminars and conventions, NAA convention, NAA Benefit Auction Summit, Fundraising Auction Academy and have completed the comprehensive NAA Benefit Auction Specialist course.
