- Charisma- Your fundraising auctioneer needs to be able to captivate and motivate the audience.
- Salesmanship- Fundraising auctioneers main responsability is to get the highest bid possible for each item to benefit your organization.

Live fundraising auction
Experienced fundraising auctioneers know when to be funny, when to be serious, when to be loud, and when to be silent. The goal of any presentation at a benefit auction is to generate bids, not to generate laughs or tears. Your fundraising auctioneer needs to know when to tell a joke, and when to look for bids.
