If You're Unable to Attend the Live Webinar You Will Still Have Access to the Webinar Recording, Slides, and Bonus Material

Small nonprofits find fundraising auctions to be overwhelming. One or two people do everything and it leads to burnout and mediocre results.
 
But these same small shop auctions become wildly successful when organizers learn how to make changes that matter most to the bottom line.
 
In this 90-minute webinar, you’ll learn auction best practices with a focus on smaller nonprofits.

As we work through the webinar, you’ll hear real examples of how small nonprofits structured their auction for the biggest payoffs. 

SPOILER ALERT:  We will not cover silent auction tactics in this course because silent auctions are statistically one of the hardest ways to raise money in an auction. If you’re eager to improve a silent auction, enroll in our "The Marketing Savvy Behind Outrageously Profitable Silent Nonprofit Auctions" course.
 
You’ll learn:

• How to plan for bottom line growth.  Learn the easiest and hardest styles of auctions, and the easiest and hardest tactics for growing the event revenue.
• How to organize auction volunteers.  (Job descriptions included.)
• How to get donated items that you can sell for big bucks.
• How to negotiate with an auctioneer.
• Insider secrets that small shop nonprofits have shared about the lessons they learned in growing their event.

Enjoy these BONUS materials with your webinar:

1. Volunteer job descriptions and appropriate committees for auctions operating with minimal help
2. Timelines for the most common types of auctions:  sit-down dinner, tasting stations, dessert-only, and luncheon events.
3. A brainstorming tool to play with at your next procurement meeting. This gem will make procurement easy!
