OCALA, Fla., Jan. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- An all-time
record of over $1.1 billion in
inventory sold through the online auction platform, HiBid.com, over
the course of 2017. HiBid.com, which offers internet bidding
solutions for online-only auctions and webcast bidding for live
auctions, held over 26,000 auctions in 2017 featuring over 5
million sold lots in total. The milestone year is a new record for
HiBid, which (alongside Auction Flex) is a product of Nebraska-based Sandhills Publishing. With a
number of product upgrades, launches, and integrations in the works
for 2018, the year ahead presents even more growth opportunities
not only for HiBid and Auction Flex, but for the auctioneers who
leverage them.
In addition to offering an accessible, local and global bidding
platform, HiBid streamlines the tasks associated with cataloging
and hosting online-only auctions for auctioneers. Alongside Auction
Flex, a full-service auction management solution, HiBid offers
auctioneers all the tools and resources they need to streamline and
simplify live auctions as well as simulcast and online-only
auctions. At the same time, it offers auction participants
convenient ways to reference items currently up for auction and
place bids from anywhere in the world. Online auctions reach a
global audience of bidders who can use the mobile-friendly platform
to keep an eye on items of interest and place bids at their
convenience, resulting in consistently better auction results.
"HiBid's record-setting 2017 has set the stage for even more
growth in 2018," says Kris Kennedy
of Auction Flex and HiBid. "These numbers are a direct reflection
of the value and results our products deliver to both auctioneers
and buyers. Our global HiBid.com platform, localized state portals,
and white-label solutions not only connect auction buyers and
sellers, they provide a solution that is simply unmatched in the
industry."
