Station Generates Over $190,000 Using the NeoFillBids.com Online Auction Platform in Just Four Days!

For Immediate Release

Hartville, Ohio September 15, 2011

With proper planning, excellent promotion, exciting offers and an amazing Online Auction Platform, a lot of revenue can be made by your station too! A few highlights from this outstanding auction include a brand new car, hot tub, home improvement items, appliances and much more! The best part about implementing an Online Auction is that it does not compete with your existing deals program. The Auction Platform allows you to go after different merchant categories, typically higher priced items, where you are only offering one or a few of the same items in that category.

NeoFillBids.com is an Online Auction Platform that is available to all our station partners.

With fourth quarter just around the corner, this is a great time to consider a Holiday Auction. It is best to create a theme for the auction such as “Holiday Wishes” or “Fantasy Auction.” The Fantasy auction would allow you to offer unique items that cannot be measured by value, but by the experience itself. Here are a few examples- A chance to run onto the field for a Football game, helicopter ride with air traffic, VIP experience at a restaurant, seats on a stage, throw the first pitch, etc.

Once you are ready to move forward with an auction, we have an amazing team ready to help you create a successful auction. Here is our Auction Toolbox, which will provide you with important planning tools.
