Procuring donations is critical to the ultimate success of your fundraising bottom line. Silent Auction Pro™ provides a platform for efficiently managing both donations and those who donate. Donors or potential donors are ultimately added to the main contact record. Each donor is "owned" by (i.e., associated to) a group member to avoid duplicate solicitations by multiple members. Review the Contacts and Entering Donations help topics for details.

By way of the contact record, Silent Auction Pro enables you to record notes and set reminders for communicating with donors. By way of the donation record, you can set the status of each donation to a variety of stages, such as Requested, Committed, Received by Member, and so on. Following up on leads and collecting donated items is made simpler by managing your inventory and communications through Silent Auction Pro.
