    by Auctionpay

    Auctionpay has teamed with cMarket to add Auctionpay Online Auctions to our product mix. Auctionpay has helped thousands of nonprofits utilize the Internet to supplement or replace traditional methods of online giving and event registration.


    Now nonprofits and schools can easily add an online auction prior to a live event to attract broader awareness to the organization, reach out to those who cannot attend the event, add a special online event at a different time of year, and better yet, raise more money.


    Auctionpay is your resource for your fundraising events. Sign up for our newsletter, attend our online seminars, and discover tips and other resources to help you with your next event – live or online. Go to http://www.auctionpay.com/ed_center/online-tips/online-tips.aspx or email us at info@auctionpay.com.

    by cMarket

    There are lots of good reasons why non-profit groups are discovering the fundraising power of cMarket online auctions.

     

    Here are three of the best ones:

     

    1. Tap into new sources of income:
      According to the Non-Profit Times, online contributions are typically 77% higher than live auctions.
    2. Engage and attract new donors:
      Online events get the attention of hard-to-reach or younger supporters who may have little interest in traditional fundraisers.
    3. cMarket makes it easy:
      Built on years of experience and thousands of successful events, cMarket’s complete online auction platform gives you everything you need to be successful.

    Visit us at http://www.cmarket.com/ephilanthropy to view an online demo and download “5 keys to running a successful auction for your non-profit organization”.
