Laura, Yes, that’s true. And another great thing is the flash-y necklaces or blink-y magnet pins. It’s hard to miss those, and guests take them home to their kids.

Thanks for the comment!

I think the best visual identifier to use would be the paper bracelets. It’s less likely that someone will take off an item you give to them if it sticks on their wrist and isn’t too silly. Doing an Online Raffle or a raffle at an event is a great idea. If it is a raffle that benefits a charity or some organization, maybe an identifier can be a sticker or a pin with the charity or organization’s name on it. It gives anyone who bought a ticket something to walk away with even if they don’t win.

Hi Jon .. or Jonsi .. or Jonsihay …
I’m glad you are finding the site useful. Referrals to your friends are always appreciated, so feel free to refer us to whomever you know involved in a fundraising auction.

Two things you might find useful:

1. I encourage you to sign-up on the right side of the page in the sign-up box. When you do, I’ll automatically email you a free report on the best items to sell in a benefit auction. You’ll also get our twice-a-month Ezine. I include ideas in the Ezine which is not necessarily on the blog. (Or, if it’s on the blog, it’s posted a lot later.)

2. Another way you can have ideas easily “pushed” to you instead of you having to go “find” it on our blog is to subscribe to our RSS feed. This requires that you have a “feedreader.” Not everyone is that high tech, but if you *do* have a feedreader and regularly subscribe to other blogs for content, you can also subscribe to ours. To subscribe, you would click on the square orange button, also in the right column of this page.
