Event Guest Experience
How you treat supporters this year will determine your success in years to come.
At Check-In/Registration:
- Each guest receives bid labels with barcode and name (optional).
- Guest may pre-swipe credit cards for expedited checkout.
In the Auction Area:
- Each item has an AuctionStar® bid sheet with barcoded bid amounts. To bid, a guest sticks a bid label next to the desired price;
- Compare this to guests signing a manual bid sheet to indicate the amount of their bid.
At the Event Checkout:
- Workers collect bid sheets for quick scanning by AuctionStar®;
- When all the bid sheets have been scanned, a winners list will be printed for posting;
- AuctionStar® prints invoices in the order desired (e.g., alpha by guest name or by table number order). Each guest invoice lists the items won and amount due, and it can also serve as a tax receipt;
- Guest pay their invoices (a quick signature if a credit card was pre-swiped);
- Guest collect their items before leaving.
Treat event guests to the following:
- A professional-looking auction (catalog, display signs, etc.);
- Stickers (bid labels) that are fun and easy to use;
- The ability to leave the event knowing what was won and the total cost;
- The ability to leave the event with winning goods and certificates in hand;
- A perception of a fairer auction (bidders cannot break rules such as minimum bid increments).
Because invoices can be ready at the time guests are ready to leave, AuctionStar® helps everyone leave happy!
