READ WHAT THE CHAIRMAN OF THE HIGHLY PRESTIGEOUS 'KINGSBURY' SCHOOL HAD TO SAY ABOUT US!

"....the Kingsbury rolodex now has only one 1 entry under "Auctioneer".

Howell Pickney Michigan Auctioneer

Auburn Hills Michigan Auctioneer

Kenny,

From our perspective the Auction went very well. While I am disappointed in not having as many "high end" items as in years pass in the Live Auction -- that was certainly not anyones fault nor for lack of trying -- more related to the depressed nature of the local economy (especially the car companies).

As it relates to you and your company -- I would have to give you very high marks. Highlights for me include:

Your advice & ideas prior to the auction were very helpful & creative. Keeping the advertising budget low ($0 actually), making sure that the bigger spenders were assigned close to the stage, having the "personal stories" related to some of the live items; auctioning off the "first table sold" were especially notable

Your performance and contribution on the night of the event were outstanding. I thought that you and Howard made a great team. We appreciated you really "plugging" into and "plussing up" the energy for the evening. Many folks commented on the overall entertainment & "surprise" factor of the evening -- which is testimony to your presence.

You showed great flexibility and willingness to go with the flow and make adjustments on the fly throughout the evening -- definitely made things easier on us -- since there were alot of moving parts.

I could go on -- but you get the picture. If I hear more or different at tonight's meeting, I will pass the data points along. Bottom-line was that you more than earned your fee and we are now big Kenny Lindsay fans. If you need me or us to act as a future positive reference, please do not hesitate to ask. And, I can pretty confidently say that the Kingsbury rolodex now has only one 1 entry under "Auctioneer".

-Sincerely,

Mike R
Chairman
Kingsbury Country Day

The Weatherman is NOT an Auctioneer

People hire professionals in nearly all of life's great adventures. From plumbers and lawyers to juggling clowns and doctors, we trust important duties to the skilled professionals. With that being said, why would you place the reins of the most important fundraising event of the year in the hands of anyone other than a professional auctioneer?

The role of a professional auctioneer is much more than a fast-talking bid caller. Celebrities such as the weatherman, news anchor or a guy named Wally from the bowling alley are not auctioneers. Their lack of performance goes undetected by committees simply because their is no scientific guage to identify just how much money the amateur auctioneer has left off the table. What can be recognized is the once-a-year amateur auctioneer is not experienced or trained in the psychology of selling, advanced auction strategy, and salesmanship which is an art in itself.........click here for the article
