Online, mobile, or virtual auction. No matter the name, they all mean the same thing; an auction conducted over the Internet where people can bid through a website or mobile device. Not paper sheet bidding.
In this episode I share:
- The benefits of an online auction
- What to look for in a platform
- How to structure your planning timeline for an online auction
- Suggestions for dividing the work amongst your auction team
- Tips for adding items to your auction site
LISTENER ACTION ITEM
- Start researching platforms.
- Set up demos so you can see the platform in action. If you haven’t already, recruit your auction team and divide up the tasks.
- Decide who will be the platform “expert” (it should be the auction chair) and have them learn as much as they can about it and teach the rest of the team.
- Create a standard format for how you write descriptions and add items to the site.
