What charity auction and silent auction chairs researched in 2011
Year-end recaps are great ways to get up to speed on the best information that charity auction and silent auction chairs were learning last year.
And if you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you know I’m a numbers person. I like to measure results and make decisions based on numbers. There’s nothing like seeing the answer in data and going for it.
So this week, I’m giving you the most popular blog posts of last year. Consider it your insider’s guide to what was hot among charity auction and silent auction planners. The list spans from the nitty-gritty of silent auctions to the fun and fabulous.

Happy viewing…
