The Lowdown on Running Auctions – Episode 004

Today’s guest is Lynn Miller, who has more than two decades of auction experience, including managing 11 auctions for Bellarmine Preparatory School. In her time running the Bellarmine PRIDE auction, she’s increased the revenue from the one-night event from the $200,000s to $670,000 at the most recent auction.

Leaders of nonprofits will find helpful ideas in this episode to increase the revenue at their own auction (if they have one), but I hope this interview with Lynn also gives a sense of the sheer amount of resources that large institutions like schools and hospitals use for these huge auctions.

Erik got my board to think critically about what kind of fundraising activities we should be investing our time and energy in. He helped them get clear on areas to focus on, and informed our fundraising activities and budget for the coming year.
