Nearly every non-profit has heard the suggestion before: "Why don't you hold a silent auction?" This suggestion inspires a range of emotions, from "Sure, I love silent auctions!" to "I promised I would never hold a silent auction again!" The thing about silent auctions is, you either love them, or you hate them.
On the one hand, many people love holding these events. An auction utilizing mobile bidding technology can be a great way to raise money and bring in new donors, as well as create buzz among your staff, donors, and other friends and supporters!
Some organizations thrive with success by understanding the multitude of steps it takes to have a successful event and implementing new technology to have greater control of their outcome. Smaller organizations will succeed by working with industry experts and gaining knowledge from their peers as they grow their fundraising efforts.
Organizations both large and small can benefit by using mobile bidding by allowing the sponsors they love and depend on to now have greater exposure for the entire length of their event! What used to be a "table sponsorship" is now that and so much more! Sponsors can advertise, link their logos to their own pages and even provide special gifts to attendees of the fundraiser!
Whichever "hand" you're considering, everyone agrees that these events are a lot of work. It takes a ton of time and patience to pull off a really strong auction event, and many non-profits simply don't have the time, energy or funding invest the amount of effort that is necessary to run a stellar event. Speak with auction experts. Try out the new technology on your own cell phone! Like what you see? Let's talk. Want to just take a peek? That's ok, too.
