Touch Screen Auctions
 |
Big screen projection lures your patrons to auction highlights such as live auction items, current high bids, popular silent auction items, items without bids, auction sponsors, and even streaming video presentations.
Our service is ideal for small and large scale auctions and can reduce the physical space requirements of your auction. Bidding greatly increases as patrons can bid on any item in your auction from anywhere in the venue. They can even bid during dinner right at the table if you wish. Watch them use the "My Bids" feature to see what items they are winning and to easily re-bid on items they are losing. Since your entire auction will be automated, post-auction tabulation time is reduced to nothing allowing you to keep your auction open longer thus increasing fundraising revenue by at least 20%!
AES provides the equipment and the staff to setup the bidding environment and then to monitor it throughout the evening, ensuring a successful and fun evening for all.
