Sound familiar? Maybe not the octopus part, but the rest?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, there\u2019s someone out there that can take the stress of planning a fundraising auction off your shoulders, and you\u2019ve found them. Delicia is more than a fundraising auctioneer or an charity benefit event planner, but also a resource. We combine the best of both live and silent auctions and fundraising event planning to create high end events and an environment that leaves your guests excited to support your cause every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fundraising Auction Night<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the knowledge of how to create your charity benefits\u2019 guest list, train your volunteers and connect with the most generous donors. Delicia provides award-winning fundraising auctioneers and assistants to entertain your guests for the entire charity benefit.

Your organization will receive guidance from initial planning through post event wrap-up. They work exclusively with associations, foundations, charities and other non-profit organizations. They work with you to ensure your next auction is the most successful ever!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It takes between 6 to 12 months of hard work and planning to put on a successful benefit auction. Doesn\u2019t it make sense to hire a professional benefit auction team to assist you with planning the event and conducting the live auction?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many organizations work an entire year to create one magical evening. They obtain fantastic auction items, persuade prominent people to attend their event and then turn the evening over to someone who is not qualified to conduct the auction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t make this mistake!! Your organization \u2013 and the clients it serves \u2013 depend on the success of your auction. Don\u2019t wait until the last minute to contact the Delicia team! The timing, structure, and flow of your event are extremely crucial. Every event walks the tightrope between a \u201cparty\u201d and a \u201cfund-raiser.\u201d Striking the right balance ensures your guests enjoy themselves while you generate the Euro\u2019s your organization needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consulting Areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Auction planning calendar\/timelines<\/li><li>Developing your theme<\/li><li>Auction venue and how much space do you need for your event<\/li><li>Correct number of live &amp; silent auction items<\/li><li>Auction games and other revenue-enhancing ideas<\/li><li>Item acquisition ideas- what sells \u2013 acquisition party \u2013 wow-factor items<\/li><li>Audience development<\/li><li>Silent auction<\/li><li>Items<\/li><li>Display<\/li><li>Space needed<\/li><li>Proper closing time and order<\/li><li>Big board<\/li><li>Room setup<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional Services:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;LIVE FUNDRAISING AUCTIONS ARE UNLIKE ANY OTHER CHARITABLE EVENT&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They offer unique challenges since the goal is not simply to sell items but also to get the audience excited about the mission of your organization. We inspire the audience so they bid high and bid often!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Picking the right team to motivate your guests to open their checkbooks will pay for itself! As professional auctioneers, we will generate more revenue, communicate your mission, and make the evening more enjoyable for your guests. Organizations believe they will save money by using a volunteer or a local celebrity to run the auction. While using a volunteer rather than a paid auctioneer may seem like a less costly option, your organization will lose revenue. Novices leave money on the table because they are not able to maximize bidding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, Delicia also provides professional ring men (Auctioneer Assistants) instead of relying on volunteers. Professional ring men are trained on how to properly assist and communicate with your guests during the live auction. They are auction stimulators and are valuable members of the auction team. They know how to entice the guest to bid a few more times on an item which greatly increases the money raised during the live auction. For these reasons, the contributions made by professional ring men at a benefit auction are more valuable to the fundraising efforts than a volunteer staff of bid spotters at your event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delicia staff are effective auctioneers and ring men. We understand the fundraising environment better than a volunteer or celebrity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to take your fundraising to another level, consider adding an online auction to the live event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Online Bidding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Benefits of adding an online auction to your event!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you add an online auction to your live event, you can advertise the event, honor your sponsors, and take absentee bids weeks before your gala \u2013 thus increasing awareness of your organization and raising more money! Most bidders consider their online auction purchases outside their usual yearly giving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Online fundraising auctions benefit charities, bidders, and sponsors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Nonprofits\/Charities benefit because they reach a broader audience, raising more money and awareness for your cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Bidders benefit by being able to bid and purchase items at their convenience while, at the same time, supporting their favorite causes. The online auction connects them to your auction even if they cannot attend your party!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Sponsors benefit by advertising on your site. An online auction generates a lot of traffic to the website and companies benefit from the positive online exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Online Only Events<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your organization lacks the resources it needs to hold a gala event, consider an online-only auction. Conducting an online auction with Delicia can be a stand-alone fundraising mechanism that brings in buyers from all over the globe and educates a broad audience about your cause.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delicia Philanthropic is our Benefits Consulting &amp; Auction Division Delicia Philanthropic is the Benefits Consulting &amp; Auction Division of the Denis A.
