RMEB Inc. Whitley Auction Wins Big At Colorado Auctioneers Convention in Denver

Rocky Mountain Estate Brokers Inc. recently won, in a big way, at the 2009 Colorado Auctioneers Association Convention held in Denver, Colorado. Many people recognize the bright yellow auction brochures created by the auction marketing staff at RMEB. RMEB won the brochure categories Antiques, Collectibles, Estate & General Household, Real Estate Residential or Farm and Ranch, Farm & Ranch Livestock, Machinery and Equipment. They also won the top award for company promotional items. This is not the first time RMEB has won auction advertising and marketing awards on a state level but Jaime Foote, RMEB Auction Coordinator stated, “I do believe this is the most awards we have won in a year. It is an honor to be recognized by the CAA.”

Rocky Mountain Estate Brokers was one of the first Colorado Auction Companies to tap into the power of the internet. RMEB CEO David P. Whitley said, “Many of our auctions do not justify the cost of a full color brochure. We use our two color auction brochures and postcards to drive traffic to our websites at www.whitleyauction.com and www.rmebrealty.com.” RMEB’s website has previously been recognized as the top Colorado Auction web site. Whitley added, “Our web sites have allowed us to dramatically increase the exposure of the auctions we conduct. Not only do we offer live internet bidding for all of our auctions, we also post hundreds of photos of all the items for sale.”

Auctioneers Attend Colorado Convention in Denver

Rocky Mountain Estate Brokers Inc. Auctioneers and managers recently attended the Colorado Auctioneers Association Convention held in Denver, Colorado. While there, they attended seminars on auction methods and continuing auction education. National experts in their areas of expertise presented these seminars. Real Estate auctions are a hot topic. There were several opportunities to learn about new, cost efficient ways to market and sell real estate at auction. David Whitley, RMEB CEO and lead Auctioneer said, “As the economy and real estate market has weakened, we have been inundated with requests from people to conduct real estate auctions. We are always looking for more ways to effectively market and sell real estate in a short period.

A nationally acclaimed author and speaker presented two seminars on time management and organization. Auctioneer Casey Giddings stated, “Our clients keep us incredibly busy. Time management is one of our most important tools in the auction business.” Casey also participated in the Colorado Champion Auctioneer Contest. She made everyone at RMEB very proud of her auctioneering skills.

Everyone at RMEB believes in constantly learning so that we can provide superior service to our clients. The Colorado Auctioneers Association 2009 Convention was not only educational for us it was fun. We live, breathe and sleep (when we get to sleep!) the auction business. We look forward to meeting you and discussing how we can solve your problems.
