Nichols Cup Pro Con Friday Pro s Time frame 5 8pm worked well Wine pull display looked amazing Wine pull theme is always fresh and new Room display and d cor was beautiful Flow works well Junior board breaking down items was huge help Con s Wine pull ran out too soon perhaps increase price or limit amount you can purchase Paypal Event gives Registering was difficult Watch Purse Partners is it a good fit Expectations Demands Set Up Extra lighting trees over auction items Procuring higher end auction items with appeal to women Less sense of urgency to bid on ticket items opera Ben Allen Movies when not on a sign up board Saturday Pro s Harmon at Tennis with national anthem Johnny Bench extra razzle dazzle was well received Clubhouse looked beautiful AV set up on time
Cookie with logo Auction program was well done and recognized the sponsors National anthem a plus having everyone stand Kayla s video was amazing brought the house down Increased special appeals Food was a big hit Zero complaints Dessert was a touch of class Staff service was superb Steve Snyder signage was appreciated Mast family was pleased with food service packaging Con s Confusing on who was eating where and when So many last minute seating changes Some guests didn t want to be on the patio Hard to bid and frustrated donors Dinner was late due to auction Auction was long Videos Hard to hear Difficult to keep donors engaged and not talking Cabana lacked buzz of lots of people and camaraderie Sunday Pro s Registration was smooth Sponsor signage was well received Practice rounds were well organized Golfers enjoyed choice of courses and times
People loved the outdoor setting Band was a huge win Size of dance floor was great Photos lights letters was personal Flow with junior board greeters was positive Four bars and locations were awesome No lines Food was phenomenal great selection No timeline for eating Food F B tent to hide mess Weather was perfect Open air party was a huge hit Toilets were nice easy location Con s Next year add permanent sponsor signage at Tennis and front of Clubhouse Monday Pro s Outdoor event Stage and Trophy Display Food and no lines Tee times a major pro Con s Too much food at dinner count was off Golfers ate late lunch and didn t want dinner adjust food service times next year Some golfers wanted boxed lunch and didn t want to come inside Miss the group photo of pros Pro s were disappointed they didn t get a framed picture
A Team Pros and Cons Nichols Auction 2 22 Pros General Great results Promotion effort very well done and paid off Fresh new Auction Items made a difference good reminder silent auction open register Start soliciting new items now big companies promo and admin subcommittees worked well add procurement logistics and preview Preview Night Preview night was very well done Donors impressed with turnout wine pull set up great ticket sales awkward Wine pull awesome sold out under 2 hours Auction Gala Night in ballroom good time had by all staff service attentive pledges were great Preshow lukewarm 10 00 Test was a great way to start and to get a quick 3 000 00 in donations The testimonial was the best I have seen yet So touching and brave Not too many items seemed about right if other conditions were better Silent Auction open for right amount of time pick up easy Some auction item descriptions great some auction items difficult to figure out Live Auction The testimonial was the best I have seen yet So touching and brave Sunday evening dinner gala dinner utside was wonderful food and service was spectacular Lines for food and bev were fine loved outdoor open air dinner club did a fabulous job The Bakery Chef out did herself again Travis great job announcing winning teams and enjoy the Bobby stories picture display was very nice enjoyed seeing new old pictures from over the years
Cons General too much work crammed into the end discuss how A team can organize better for next year promo and admin subcommittees worked well add procurement logistics and preview Both Registration and Bidding Software need to be more user friendly No notifications reminder auction starting silent auction hours Unable to use Brian s talent on all items Unsure if restuarant giveaway helped getting people to pre resgister but we had some decent results Valentines Day Buy it Now was disappointing hopefully can be improved More golf prizes for amateurs Pin shots putting contest drives etc all help to get the folks Pre Sales movie night ben allen opera not understood as sign up undersold maybe a sign up table at preview can still use online a little opera music and Ben Allen music and something highlighting Death on the NIle during preview night Pipers reported empty newsletters not enough event information need to promote silent items Preview NIght Order Print signs on 8x10 paper not 81 2 x 11 hours spent cutting to size Volunteers to help people register turned away greeting table awkward traffic flow idea good but maze prohibitive why TVs with slide show as items are in front of viewer neeed to direct traffic to website to bid now No reminders as to when live auction starts Time too short people not encouraged to mingle Wine Pull too many high end bottles use money to buy more low tier bottles Two or three top end is good wine pull sold out too quickly It takes too long to set up the Preview for 3 hours of display Sales are lost because of lack of exposure eliminate the black frames unless we have exact size inserts if not buy exact size frames need to allow silent items to be viewed for longer period Have the Wine Pull ticket sales table placed closer to actual wine pull Created confusion and a backup of people at the entrance instead of a flow Auction Gala night in ballroom sound management poor TVs good bad Pipers want live Too many people were talking during the live auction serving food might have quieted the room quickly The tent creates an aura of uniqueness that makes the whole event stand out as special food served too late affected attention to live auction bidding Look at returning to the Tent if so need sides Get that big old tent back out there and keep it live with Johnny and Scott 15 items auctioned max timing of dinner resulted in bad expereince for some dinner served 8 30 in women s restroom at 7 30 and everyone was complaining pulling the same name 3 times is beyond all odds I hope she bought lotto tickets
Silent Auction difficult to navigate no reminders after live auction some trouble bidding on Saturday night last minute Sunday website did not update easilty need to promote silent items need to receive warning signals that bidding would close soon Tech Register and log in not intuitive people had trouble Have white flag at each table to signal for tech help Have a bunch of techies in area Get temporary boost for Clubhouse WiFi during preview and Gala Not enough band width Can t tell people to use their phone data to connect when they don t have enough bars in the dining room trouble bidding site froze up had to log out log back in Need to have drive up tech registration like last year The software is difficult for the bidders to navigate causing sales to be lost The software is difficult to work with from the administrative end The software does not produce adequate receipts requiring them to be redone manually need to know metrics of how many bid make software decision soon for next year depends on how live is done junior board tech help when can we get in software had to continually go to email to find a link for the auction Seems like it should be easier to find blue heart Watch List next day they were no longer clicked
