What do trade association members actually bid on at a fundraiser?

Association bidders think in business terms. A premium golf trip can double as client entertainment or a working getaway. A Kentucky Derby weekend or a Bourbon Trail tour reads as a reward, not a splurge. Items that ask them to bid with their company card, and then use the trip with a client or team, outperform generic getaways every time.

You never buy anything upfront. You only pay for an experience if it sells, keep 100% over the cost, and can sell experiences multiple times if the bidding gets hot. You are not too late: items can be added the same day as your event. Browse over 140 travel and experience packages, reserve the ones that fit your crowd, and owe nothing for any that do not sell. A starting bid 15-20% above cost puts profit in your event from the first paddle.

Pick the items your members already want. Giveback XP helps you sort through premium golf outings, wine weekends, big sporting events, and Bourbon Trail stays. You get a one-page PDF with photos and details for each experience, plus a marketing email to prep your auction team. No guesswork, no inventory. The Travel Team books all the travel for your winners after the event.

Your auction closes with trips members actually use. Winners have up to two years to travel on most experiences. For event-based packages like the Kentucky Derby or the US Open, they attend that year. You send the winners’ names, the Travel Team handles the rest. A cleaner auction night, a stronger close, and no loose ends.
