FAQ

Hire an experienced auctioneer. It’s worth it! They play a huge role in keeping the live auction moving to help you raise more.

Limit the number of auction items between 3 and 5 to keep your audience interested.

An experienced auctioneer will be able to gauge the room to determine where to start the bidding. The last thing you want is to drop below the start bid because it was too high. As a general rule, we say 50% of the price you want it to go for – with big increments.
