Harke Auctioneers Benefit Auction Division
Approximately $16.2 Billion Dollars is raised yearly by Fundraising Auctions
One of the reasons for this success is using the talent and experience of a Professional Benefit Auctioneer
Many factors comprise a successful fundraising event. We offer a comprehensive service to plan and conduct the evening’s auction. We are not just auctioneers, we are consultants and we care about every aspect of your event. Every decision matters and we want to help you and your organization succeed.
Rather than just presenting numbers to your audience, I interact and establish a rapport with your guests. I believe in entertaining the audience which creates an exciting evening. As a benefit auctioneer and entertainer I try to present a dignified, commanding presence that captures the audience’s attention, put them at ease, also give them a laugh or two and become excited and enthused to bid and bid high, on your auction items.
After all the work to prepare for the event, do you want someone showing up an hour before the auction, then call for bids? It is enticing to want to save money by using a “free” or “bargain” auctioneer, friend, or celebrity to handle one of the most important parts of your benefit. So often the money you save will result in lower yields at your event.
We commit our time to your event, committee meetings, planning, silent auction item packaging, arrangement of live auction items to reflect the best results. . Recommendations for reliably vendors, lighting, sound, catering, music etc. We are in touch with Benefit Auctioneers across the U. S. The latest trends, which items sell, new marketing ideas, procurement of items, ideas are shared as to “what works the best” It is this commitment to excellence that makes our benefit auction division special.
Ron not only serves as your Auctioneer, but can also serve as your Facilitator for the evening. Ensuring a fun charity auction, helping you with the "flow" of the evening time frame. Emcee, announcements, promoting ticket sales, closing of silent auctions. Dedicated to making your evening a sucess.
