Podcasts about fundraising auction

Today Kelly and Paulie talk about consignment items and whether they are a good fit for your event.  We also pay tribute to our auction Godfather Larry Stokes who recently passed away.  

In this episode we discuss reasons why you should have a live fundraising auction rather than a simple capital campaign.

Today we continue our auctioneer Q&A session by asking some tougher questions that ultimately lead to a successful audience experience, and a positive environment for fundraising.
