Welcome to Northwest Benefit Auctions!

Thought for the week: "If you are concerned about your event expenses, it is better (and easier) to increase your gross income by $10,000 then to try to cut $2,000 from the budget. You can never save your way to prosperity" - Jay Fiske, Auction Consultant

"We wanted to gross $55,000. but we ended up grossing over $81,000! Dana and I worked hard, but we heard nothing but kudos for your performance as well. We've had the most horrible run of bad auctioneers for the past 4-5 years, but even seasoned auction goers had praise for you. So thank you so much. We raised 105% on the Live portion of the Auction -- that was all you." - K.I., Cedar River Montessori School

"The Big Book of Benefit Auctions is a cogently written and meticulously researched tool for both the up-and-coming and well-established fundraiser. It lays out in precise detail the steps necessary to execute a fiscally successful auction, but is sure to include tips on what's most important to the auction attendee - creating an engaging, fun atmosphere. Anyone equipped with this text will become a better auctioneer, and not just of the charitable variety."

"Hiring NWBA to assist with our auction was one of the best decisions I have made and the best investment. Joan was more than a pleasure to work with and it seemed like every time I had a question she was right there to pick up her phone to help (at all hours). Both Kim and Joan were such assets in training our volunteers and when things seemed to get hectic, they continued to remain "even keel" which calmed me at the same time. I don't know what we would have done without them. I look forward to working with them next year."
