Are you writing an auctioneer business plan? In 2008, the National Auctioneers Association announced that the industry had grossed approximately $268.4 billion in revenue for the year. In particular, key sectors such as equipment, machinery, agricultural, and residential real estate auctions pushed the industry to reach new records. Now is a better time than ever before to launch an auctioneer business, but its important to make sure you consider a wide variety of factors in your business plan. Be sure to at least answer the following core question:
• How large of a market is there for auctions in your area?
• How many other auctioneers operate locally and how have they performed in recent years?
• What are the major competitive advantages you enjoy that will set you apart from other businesses?
• What sorts of products will you specialize in auctioning?
• What experience in the industry will you bring to your business?
Obviously, your business plan will require a much more detailed assortment of information including local demographics, national and regional statistics, financial projections, and more. The average entrepreneur spends hundreds of hours preparing their business plan, and yet only a small percentage of business plans successfully secure funding from capital sources.
