Charity Auctioneer

A Charity auctioneer, benefit auctioneer and fundraising auctioneer all cater to the same niche - nonprofit and charity organizations which make up the bulk of our clientele. Charity auctioneers may choose different titles, but we are not the same. We are each unique in the services we offer to our fundraising clients. Each charity auctioneer, benefit auctioneer or fundraising auctioneer brings a different level of experience, skill set, competence, record of accomplishments and degree of success to the table. DiNardo & Lord Auctioneers is not an expense but an investment. - Tom DiNardo

Advice: Some unscrupulous benefit auctioneers may feel the need to inflate their experience or qualifications in misrepresenting their abilities. We recommend checking references and verifying these claims on the internet. DiNardo & Lord Auctioneers will gladly provide our clients with proof of our experience and credentials upon request.

We inform our fundraising clients that there are three types of charity auctioneers:
(1) The VOLUNTEER or HOBBYIST AUCTIONEER is most often unskilled, and a self taught community member or even an eager elected official, radio or television personality. Although they might be a terrific announcer or master of ceremonies for your fundraiser, they don't often make adequate charity auctioneers! Free is not necessarily better! There is great truth in the phrase, "To make money, you must spend money."

(2) TRADITIONAL AUCTIONEERS are professionally trained in the craft, but more often than not they have little if any experience in benefit auctions, charity auctions or fundraising auctions. Unfortunately, this can and does impact your fundraiser and event. What appears to be a significant cost savings between the fees charged by a traditional auctioneer versus those charged by a benefit auctioneer may ultimately cost you more in hiring the inexperienced traditional auctioneer. The lost revenue usually equals ten to twenty times the cost difference in the fees charged between the two auctioneers.

(3) The professional CHARITY AUCTIONEER, BENEFIT AUCTIONEER, or FUNDRAISING AUCTIONEER typically comes from an accredited auction school, or s/he has apprenticed with a recognized fundraising auctioneer or fundraising auction firm. They possess the requisite professional experience with years in the charity auction industry to insure your fund-raising event’s profitability. Knowing these facts now, which type of auctioneer would you choose for your fundraiser?

Our Guarantee and Promise:
DiNardo & Lord Auctioneer’s fundraising consultant staff is comprised of highly skilled charity auctioneers and event planners who come from the country’s best auction schools. Further, each of our benefit auctioneers has apprenticed with a professional fundraising auction firm, perfecting their skills, and mastering their craft before they embarked on their independent paths.

Our commitment to you is held sacred in our promise that you will receive consistent professional fundraising consultant, event planning, and benefit auctioneer services for every one of your fundraisers and gala events. When it comes to your needs and that of your successful fundraiser, DiNardo & Lord Auctioneers provides our clients with the best live auction and fundraising consultant services available in the nation.
