The Advantages Of Online Charity Auctions

Non profit organisations are taking full advantage of the developments in digital

technologies that have occurred over the last decade and the options they have opened up to charities looking for new and improved ways of fundraising. Thanks to the proliferation of the internet and the popularity of the major online auction site eBay, people are now quite accustomed to shopping and selling from home.

And there are a plethora of advantages to using online charity auctions. You wont have to spend vast amounts of money renting a location or hiring staff. Guests can attend at any time and they can bring other friends and family members and you wont have to be concerned with running out of space. You can simply sit back and watch the bids build up, for an event you didnt have to pay a penny to set up and took a lot less effort to organise than it would have, had it occurred in the real world.

Online charity auctions are a brilliant resource, allowing non profit organisations the ability to raise money all year long, selling anything they can find and with very little additional expense. Sponsors, bidders, staff, and donors can all participate from the comfort of their own home. With just a simple internet connection your donors are can get involved and have access to the online events of the auction. Additionally, thanks to email, instant messaging and services such as Skype, you can easily give your potential supporters the individual attention they deserve, inspiring them to donate to your cause, and making it a much more personalized experience. With this presence on the internet you also have the opportunity to inform other surfers of your cause and all the great work you do towards it. With these free technologies and services you can provide your constituents with everything they need to know to become fully aware of your organization and its efforts.

There are a range of different types of auctions too, so you could host a live auction, or even a silent auction, or just run them regularly throughout the year as an extra means of fundraising. The online auction community is a large and thriving one so making connections and building relationships with its active members will prove to be profitable not just as a one time thing, but for repeat business in the future. Its well worth taking the time to make a profile and establish a reputation as a good and trusted auctioneer.
