The recession is lifting, at least in some sectors. Business is booming in South Florida, and you’re one of the fortunate ones. Your restaurant or bar is well placed, and after years of making do with what you had, you’re finally looking to make some improvements in your restaurant’s kitchen. But you still need to be careful with your funds, because you know that things can change without much notice.
There is one good way to raise some of the funds you need to upgrade your kitchen equipment: sell the old equipment through commercial restaurant equipment auctions. This allows you to recover at least some of the funds you invested in that equipment, back before the recession hit.
It doesn’t matter how much or how little you have to sell at this particular time, because here at Lauro Auctioneers we have a monthly restaurant equipment auction, as well as an option for having the auction online. We also accept consignments if you can’t wait to get your new equipment in place.
We also make good use of electronic and social media to help increase visibility for our auctions and bring in more potential buyers. In addition to placing auction and consignment items on our website, we use Facebook and Twitter, and an opt-in database of potential customers that is over 6000 members and growing. This means that it’s easy to let possible buyers know about the specific items that you wish to sell. We also list our auctions with Ignite, which is exclusively devoted to listing auctions. This means that your restaurant equipment to be advertised to a much wider geographic area than might otherwise be possible.
