Red Apple Auctions Launches Facebook Sweepstakes for a Chance to Win a Tool for Benefit Auctions
Red Apple Auctions launches a Facebook sweepstakes that runs through January 31 and offers fans a chance to win a teaching series focused on raising more money through interactivity at a charity auction.
ALEXANDRIA, VA, January 19, 2011
Red Apple Auctions, a boutique benefit auction firm, is excited to launch its first Facebook sweepstakes that gives fans a chance to win a tool that will make or break a fundraising auction - the Charity Auction Bells & Whistles teaching series."We use Facebook to provide advice, tips, and photos that volunteer auction chairs can read to get simple ideas that make their job easy. This sweepstakes is a chance to get people talking with us on Facebook. Our existing fans love our weekly how-to videos, so even after January 31, I know our new friends are going to like what they see," said Sherry Truhlar, benefit auctioneer and founder of Red Apple Auctions.
Once entered, a fan can invite friends to participate in the sweepstaeks. "I'd encourage entire auction committees, and maybe even entire schools, to ban together and enter, in the hopes that one of them would win the instructional videos," said Truhlar.
No purchase is necessary to enter. Entrants must be at least 18 years old. This contest requires that you have Internet access, a valid e-mail address, and you must become a fan of the Red Apple Auctions Facebook page where you can find and enter the contest via a NorthSocial application. Complete sweepstakes rules are available at http://www.redappleauctions.com/about-us/red-apple-auctions-become-a-fan-sweepstakes-rules/.
Benefit auctioneer Sherry Truhlar's entertaining stories and advice is often picked up by publications (e.g. Town & Country, The Washington Post Magazine, AUCTIONEER, The Eleusis, The Virginia Auctioneer) and television (e.g. E! Style, TLC) where she inspires and teaches volunteers how to hit new fundraising records in their auction galas.
