Your Best Item Is in the Wrong Slot: Building the Perfect Live Auction

Great items. Wrong order. Flat room. Put the showstopper up first and the room peaks before it's warmed up. Line up three beach getaways back to back and your bidders start competing with each other instead of against each other. Close on a whimper and the energy walks straight out the door. Chris Hensley has built lineups for events of every size. He'll walk you through how to put the right items in the right order, and share the one-of-a-kind packages that have worked best in his rooms. The batting order: where to place your opener, your showstopper, and your closer so the room keeps climbing Why variety is a revenue strategy: how duplicate items quietly split your bidder pool, and the mix that gives every bidder in the room a reason to raise a paddle Custom packages that sell themselves: Chris's best one-of-a-kind bundles, and how to build experiences only your organization can offer. 🔗 CONNECT WITH US 🔗 Connect with Chris on LinkedIn:   / chris-hensley-auctions   Connect with Trevor on LinkedIn:   / trevor-nelson-b8922a167   Follow Hey Nonprofits! on LinkedIn:   / hey-non-profits-raise-more-money   💙 ABOUT HGA FUNDRAISING 💙 This episode was brought to you by HGA Fundraising.
