Licensed Auctioneer

Baterbys' auctioneers have been developing their practices for over 25 years and are members of several associations such as the National Auctioneers Association and other local chambers of commerce.

Auction Logistics

Planning, organizing and coordinating an auction require very tedious work. An auction event has to have a definite direction and goal as much as it needs a solid logistical plan. Without a detailed blueprint of the project timeline, a grand cause may go to waste.

Baterbys has not only hosted several auctions successfully but has also managed the back-end of over hundreds of elaborate and highly-attended auctions. Our team is comprised of specialists who are experts in their fields - sales, marketing, operations & IT. They are flexible and will accommodate your organization's needs.

We will help you structure your auction program, curate and price auction items, establish effective marketing channels to reach your supporters/members, design and produce all your promotional materials, train you with our auction management software and educate your buyers on the actual auction event.

Pre-Event Marketing

Deciding to hold an auction as a fundraising event is the best option because of the mindset people have when attending such events. Unlike other kinds of fundraisers, people who come to auctions decide on a "donation ceiling". When people come to an auction, their mindset is "what's the most I can spend for this non-profit organization?" not "what's the least I can do?".

Baterbys professional auctioneer and sales team will strategize based on this bidder mindset. They will work to understand the cause of your charity group and tie that in with the buyer disposition. Throughout the event planning process, Baterbys sales and marketing team engages your non-profit group's project coordinator/s to shape the overall direction of the auction event. At this point, they will provide expert advice on the auction program, item descriptions and unique selling propositions, IT and media support, marketing avenues and audience interaction activities such as art lectures.

Since Baterbys' commitment extends beyond the success of one auction event, they will strive to deliver the best sales and marketing services with the goal of persuading your target audience to contribute their resources - time, money and energy - on a more enduring level.

Event Proram and Auction Goal-Setting

Though it may seem like a drop in the ocean, Baterbys continues to build its business around long-term investments. These are solely found not our artworks or business ventures, but in the number of lives our services have touched and changed.

Conversely, the monetary goals of an auction is still a matter of the final "bottom line numbers". In any case, we will make sure that you reach your target funds . We will even provide you with an insightful set of ideas to reach those numbers. Our approach to outlining auction programs has been guided by our ability to be flexible and creative.

We will work with your parameters such as pre-planned media presentations, speeches, honorary guest mentions, raffle draws, etc. Since Baterbys professional benefit auctioneers fully understand that the auction starts well in advance of the actual event, they will participate in this aspect of preparing for the auction. They will get involved in all the aspects of preparing you auction program.

Auction Day Sales Support

Auction buyers are keen on obtaining as much information as they can about the items up for bidding. Since benefit and charity auctions are cause-driven, they need to feel empowered to make a purchase decision. Information and perspective nudges them in profound ways to make this happen.

Our auction sales team equip themselves with product knowledge weeks before an auction takes place. They are trained to education buyers, not simply inform them. Whether the items for auction are your own or ours, we will make sure that the sales support staff are fully cognizant of the product salient selling points.

Prodcut Procurement (If you don't have any items to sell)

The mix, value and quantity of items that will be sold at the auction event is another determinant of success for a charity auction. Baterbys staff will help you organize your items for sale. With a deep understanding of your audience, they will help you choose and determine what kind of items will bring you the maximum gains.

Baterbys auctioneers have been able to increase the sale value of an item through their skill level and breadth of experience as professionals in the field. Because they have taken part in the product procurement process, they know which items to highlight and feature at the actual event. Plus, given their dedication to connect with your audience on a more cause and goal-oriented level, they will use their bidder knowledge and acquired instinct to bring in the highest value for your items.

More importantly, if you do not have any means or are not sufficiently knowledgeable on how to curate auction items, Baterbys has an art collection that spans from 20th Century Master works by painters like Picasso, Dali and Miro to contemporary artworks by today's biggest names like Peter Max, Thomas Kinkade and Isaac Maimon, that can be sold at your events. A Professional Benefit Art Auctioneer can raise significant dollars for your organization.
