The Great Outdoors

The cheese melted, no-one could see the crowd from the stage, and there was a threat of rain: hosting an event outdoors presents a slew of challenges for a fundraising auction. But the payoff is epic when it all goes well! In this episode of Black Tie and Tales, fundraising auctioneers Greg Quiroga and Devon Bell take it outside with stories of events held under the stars (or under the rain clouds, in some cases). They also share stories of when being outside was absolutely amazing: the fresh air, the views, the ambiance...this episode of Black Tie and Tales has equal parts triumph and tragedy.Read the accompanying blog post to this episode on our blog: https://www.stellarsf.com/blogPresented by Stellar Fundraising Auctions (http://www.stellarsf.com) and brought to you by Greater Giving, easily manage fundraising event registration, check-in, check-out, auction items and sales: http://www.greatergiving.com And Sojourn Ventures: Consignment travel for charity auctions, done right: https://www.sojournventurestravel.com/Take a peek behind the curtain of the wonderful world of fundraising auctions with two auctioneers who have seen it all. https://feeds.captivate.fm/black-tie-and-tales/
