Paper Bidding & Auction Brochure Services

Bring a traditional touch to your fundraising event with paper bidding and auction brochures. Here at A Star Experience, we can facilitate both high-tech auction systems along with more old-school ways of running a premium fundraising event.

Keep to time

Paper bidding is a very effective way of raising valuable funds for your chosen cause. This technique is ideal if you have a strict running order to your event, and want to keep the auction going in the background while your program of events continues uninterrupted.

Branded brochure design

Brand your auction with professional assistance from our in-house designer who can develop an auction brochure in line with your brand and specifications. This brochure will feature event information, details about the spotlighted charity, and of course an enticing catalogue of auction lots.

Easy bidding

Each guest will also be able to write their bids within the brochures throughout the event, making it a seamless process from start to finish and a truly easy way to raise money for a good cause.

What type of auction services do you offer?

We offer silent auction tablets, brochures, online auctions or a hybrid solution. But most importantly, we aim to tailor a package that meets the needs and requirements of your event. We would recommend getting in touch with one of the team today to tell us a little bit of information about what you are looking for from a fundraising partner. Our team will put together a free proposal for you on what we can offer.

Do I have to use A Star Experience auction items or can I use my own?

You absolutely can use your own. You’re also more than welcome to use A Star Experience items too. Any of your own items that have been donated by a generous supporter can be included within the auction. Your items will be placed at the forefront of the auction lot list for prime viewing. All the funds raised on any auction items that have been donated to you or you have sourced will go to you. A Star Experience does not take any margin or commission on any of these items. 

What is the cost to run a silent auction?

We are fully aware that with any event (especially charity events), it’s really important to keep costs down and save where you can. This is why we try our best to keep any costs at a minimum for you. 

Any costs are done on a ‘sliding scale’ depending on how many A Star Experiences items you want to include in the auction. If you were to include a number of A Star items in your auction, then we will try our very best to provide our auction service free for you. To hear more about these options, please reach out to one of the team today. The number of A Star items needed to include within your auction to get our service for free might be less than you think!

What is included in the silent auction brochure service?

We will always try and tailor the perfect solution for you, but the auction brochure service normally is provided for free, with the inclusion of some luxury A Star Experience items within the auction lot. 

The brochures will always be branded to your event/charity’s guidelines. Our design team will produce a brochure that you will sign off and, once happy, we will print the brochure for you as well. 

We will also supply staff to be in attendance on the day to engage with your guests, answer any questions and promote the auction. Post-event, we will take care of all the payment collection for you, and our aim will be to get you paid as quickly as possible after the event. For much more detail on what is included within this service, please do reach out to one of the team today. 

What is included in the silent auction tablet service?

We will always try and tailor the perfect solution for you. With the tablet service, you will have a choice of the market-leading tech platforms within the industry. You will receive a dedicated Event Liaison Manager, who will be on hand to build your auction for you and answer any questions you may have. The platform will be branded to the event/charity guidelines.

Do you only do auctions for charity events?

Not at all. Any event can be used for a silent auction. We often attend awards dinners, Premier League football matches and golf days as an example, in addition to all the charity events. Please get in touch with a member of the team who can tell you more about what we can offer.
