At ClickBid we want you to be fully prepared for mobile bidding. Chances are you have run paper auctions or even tried electronic auction software. In either case, we don’t want to make any assumptions about your mobile bidding comfort level.
First, since your auction is a mobile bidding auction, you should definitely let guests pre-register and therefore pre-check into the auction. Ideally, you want to know that they plan to attend and that you have a method of payment to make check out easier. Taking a cue from airlines, send out an email the night before the auction allowing guests to register and/or confirm their existing registration. Then, at the event, have a volunteer or two greet people and ask if they pre-registered. If so, they can keep walking and find that bar. This thins your crowd dramatically so there’s never a line.

We have even created a lite version of our software to accommodate those events that can run without our on-site presence.
