Live Auction Process

pre-auction

Long before the auction takes place, we lay the groundwork for a successful event. This crucial pre-auction phase involves an in-depth consultation to discuss your goals, item selection, and estimated values. We then dive into research, gathering information on each item, including market trends and potential buyer interest. To ensure a smooth flow and maximize sales, we meticulously lot and catalog the items, grouping them logically and creating a detailed catalog with descriptions and photos. Finally, we create marketing and promotion strategies to attract a vibrant audience of potential buyers through targeted advertising and social media campaigns. By laying this strong foundation,we set the stage for an exciting and profitable event.

the live auction

We begin by warmly welcoming attendees, introducing ourselves, and clearly explaining the auction process. Then, the real magic happens. We expertly & energetically call out bids. We will skillfully encourage participation from the audience, creating a fast-paced and exciting atmosphere.Throughout the auction, the auctioneer is a pillar of information, fielding inquiries about items and the process from bidders. With a keen eye, we track bids, ensuring a fair competition for each lot. When we reach the winning bid, the sale is finalized and on the way to a smooth payment collection process.

post auction

In the post-auction phase, we ensure a smooth transition for both buyers and sellers. We remain a valuable resource, following up with buyers to address any questions or concerns they might have about their winning bids. We also oversee the settlement process, working with the client to finalize sales, handle paperwork, and facilitate payment collection. Finally, we debrief with the client. This crucial meeting provides an opportunity to discuss the auction results, celebrate successes, and identify any questions. By fostering a collaborative and transparent post-auction experience, we ensure a lasting positive impression for all involved.

BENEFITS OF A LIVE AUCTION

Live auctions offer a unique and exciting experience for both buyers and sellers. Here are some key benefits:

High-Energy Atmosphere: We create a dynamic and fast-paced environment that can encourage competitive bidding and potentially drive up prices for sellers.

Immediate Decisions: Unlike online auctions with extended bidding periods, live auctions require buyers to make split-second decisions, leading to a more impulsive and potentially higher final bid.

Person-to-Person Interaction: Live auctions allow for interaction with other bidders and the auctioneer. You can gauge interest, ask questions, and feel the energy of the room.

Limited Time Frame: The finite window for bidding in a live auction creates a sense of urgency, potentially motivating buyers to offer their best price.

Inspecting Items: Live auctions often allow for the physical inspection of items before bidding, which can be crucial for assessing value and condition, especially for unique or high-value items.

BENEFITS OF AN ONLINE AUCTION

Online auctions offer a flexible and accessible alternative to live auctions, providing several advantages:

Wider Audience: Reach a broader pool of potential buyers from anywhere with an internet connection, increasing the chances of finding the right buyer for your item.

24/7 Bidding: Bid on items at any time, day or night, regardless of your location or schedule.

Research at Your Pace: Carefully research items, compare prices, and consider bids before making a decision.

Lower Overhead Costs: Online auctions often have lower fees compared to live auctions, potentially saving both buyers and sellers money.

Large Selection of Items: Browse a vast array of items from various categories, potentially finding unique treasures you wouldn't encounter at a local live auction.

Comparison Shopping: Easily compare similar items side-by-side to ensure you're getting the best deal.
