Facebook stats will often be proportional to website traffic and participation. They almost always contribute to the story of the auction. But not always. The same goes even for bidder registrations. At the end of the day, the only numbers that count are sale prices.

At the auction company where I worked before starting this freelance gig, I advertised about 150 auctions per year. At that rate, it would’ve taken me almost 80 years to market this many auctions. So, back in 2002, I never imagined this milestone was possible.

Zane Parrott forwarded this encouraging and entertaining post-sale story for his Illinois auction last week of oilfield equipment: “After the auction closed and we were discussing the total bid price, the seller’s exact words were (and pardon my French), ‘Are you 💩ting me? It brought that much?’ The seller was thrilled. Pickup went smoothly. And all is good!”

260: I have a weird job.

I had never advertised the liquidation of a [click to see type of] company until Mike Knudsen of The Hamilton Group sent me this Michigan auction. The ads performed efficiently in every category, but one stat grabbed my attention: 202 people had shared the ads with their Facebook friends. That’s a LOT of free advertising!

“We have had a TON of traction for this auction. We knew we would get some due to the car and the jewelry, but in relation to other estates, it’s just a ‘small’ estate auction for us. However, on Saturday, we had more at our open house than we have had in a very long time. More in our local area have registered for this auction than we have seen in a while. I was even at my neighbor’s house yesterday, helping them register.”
