The skills acquired over two decades as auctioneers prepare us for the high-stakes demands inherent in an equipment auction. Your auction company must demonstrate a series of very different capabilities:
Cataloging — accuracy and attention to detail combined with appropriate descriptions of condition will set the stage for a more successful auction.
Marketing — Our extensive activity in the southern Florida market allows us to keep pace with accelerating changes in marketing techniques. Internet-based promotions as well as the traditional use of print and broadcast media are all relevant, depending on the auction. Marketing must be customized for every situation to maximize the number of qualified and interested parties attending.
Auction Day Presentation — the logistics of a used restaurant equipment auction can be daunting to the initiated. Equipment needs to be both presented and sequenced well. Finally, the skills of the auctioneer need to be top-notch.
Together, all of these demonstrated skills will bring you more money for your valuable assets.

Ours is a family-run business in which Lou Lauro and his sons know that reputation is everything.
Consider the response of a recent customer; an owner of multiple facilities in southern Florida:
“The two auctions you performed for us this year were perfect. The auctions were advertised well in advance and the interest was high. On auction day the crowds were comprised of interested and qualified buyers, set up at our location was professional and competent, and the auctions were very effective. I believe we realized excellent value for our sale items. Your team made it all so easy and I thank you all.”
