The traditional auctioneer is most proficient in fast talking, or “chanting” as it is called in the auction industry.  They can go through many auction items in a short period of time, and quickly try and get to the highest possible bid on each item.  Traditional auctioneers are most suited and needed at heavy equipment auctions, auto auctions, and general merchandise auctions.

Option 2- The professional benefit auctioneer, charity auctioneer, or fundraising auctioneer.

Used sometimes at charity and benefit auctions are volunteer or celebrity auctioneers.  While they can be entertaining at times, it is not recommended to use volunteers if you would like to raise the most possible funds at your auction.  Celebrity auctioneers are good for established events that generally raise high funds consistently ($1,000,000++).   Investing in a professional benefit auctioneer, or charity auctioneers services is generally the best way to make your auction a success.

3. Experience and versatility- Every organization, and every auction is different.  Your charity auctioneer needs to be able to adapt to your venue, your clients, and your auction items.  An experienced charity auctioneer will be comfortable in a room with 500 people, or 30 people, will have done auctions that raise $15,000, and auctions that have raised $1,000,000 plus. 

Many benefit auctioneers, charity auctioneers, and fundraising auctioneers will claim that they are entertaining, or that entertainment is the most important quality in a charity auctioneer.  We believe that entertainment falls under both the Charisma, and the Salesmanship quality. 

Live charity auction

Experienced fundraising auctioneers know when to be entertaining, when to be serious, they know how to read the room to generate the most possible revenue.  The goal of any presentation at a charity auction is to generate bids, not to generate laughs or tears.  Your charity auctioneer needs to know when to tell a joke, and when to look for bids.
